The Village
I love reading novels set in Italy. Novels that describe village life. Nicky Pellegrino is one of my favourite writers and has several based in the region. I love how the village life is described. The Barista knowing the perfect coffee for the day. The descriptions of aromas drifting from the bakeries, the people, the community.… Continue reading The Village
Moments
"Life is a sequence of moments called now" "Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory" Dr Seuss All the little moments that make up our days are what construct our lives. Our lives are made of many, many moments. Most of the time though, we rush through life… Continue reading Moments
Ignition
I love the colour of the key to my car. It's a gorgeous pop of blue, vibrant and bold. And it goes beautifully with my favourite mustard coloured handbag. This key is not an accessory though, it's an essential and crucial item for me to access and then drive my car. Without it, I'm going nowhere… Continue reading Ignition

Their excitement is for the yellow container within the egg and the… Continue reading The treasure of the Kinder Surprise

We drive slower and more carefully, trying to distinguish the road in front of us. Yet all that has changed is the atmosphere around us. The… Continue reading A foggy morning
The Running Man
I don't do running. When I do attempt to, it tends to end with a spectacular fall on my behalf. I have fallen running downhill, running uphill and even running on the flat. To confess, I was often wearing heels at the time, not the wisest choice for running. And truth be told these occasions were… Continue reading The Running Man
The Punctuation of Life
I am sure that with the debut of the texting and twittering, punctuation received a hammering. With character spaces being at a premium the use of full stops and commas would have dropped, save for the use of colon and the bracket combined to make the smiley face of course. I'm amazed that this combination… Continue reading The Punctuation of Life
