Back to Paper

paper cut

I started a paper cut yesterday.
It’s been a long time… The last one was made last year: the Christmas tree. No, you can’t remember, I didn’t have time to post about it…

This time, the design is largely inspired by an image I’ve seen in a book lately.
I hope to share with you soon the completed piece that will give you a better idea what it is…

Today starts the French film festival in Wellington. We plan to see Korkoro and the Hedgehog. My sister M. has recommended the latter to me. Have you seen it ?

La suite en français…

Apo pou eisai ? *

That’s the phrase with a couple of others I only can remember from my year spent in Greece many years ago.
I was student at this time.
And I met there Paprika.
Unexpected, I know. France meets Hungary in Greece… ?!
I keep so many good souvenirs from this time and not only because I fell in love with a boy…

I made this Greek salad for lunch today and when I had the first mouthful, it was like all the images came back to my mind.
This salad is so simple and yet so tasty. And it was a long time I didn’t make one.
You may want to eat it with a grilled meat. For me, it was just slices of sourdough bread.
But to conclude on a sweet note, I finished the Greek yogurt in the fridge, drizzled a little bit of honey and tossed some walnuts…

A special week-end for many of us with the Chinese New Year and St Valentine’s day… So I wish you to have some good time ! ;)

Forget You Not

Just a little hello and to let you know I didn’t forget you.
I hope to come back soon with more to share…

PS: Does anyone know the name of these flowers ?
