Just A Minute In January....


Reading: "The Snow Child" by Eowyn Ivey, a beautifully written fairytale for adults, set in the harsh backdrop of 1920 Alaska.
Sometimes a little of what you fancy does you good and so I fancied a fairytale and it did me the world of good!
Listening: "The Great Beyond" by REM. I've listened this song thousands of times this month wandering around with my car and I've loved it!
Watching: "The Theory Of Everything", the utterly gorgeous movie, directed by James March, adapted from the memoir "Travelling to Infinity: My life with Stephen" by Jane Wilde Hawking. This book deals with the relationship of this strong woman with her ex-husband , the physicist Stephen Hawking, his diagnosis of motor neuron disease and his success in physics.
Buying: crime novels, especially those of swedish authors, like " The Ice Princess" and " The Preacher" by Camilla Lackberg and " Men Who Hate Women" by Stieg Larsson.
Loving: my new "Chocolate Super Berry Burst" tea, with rooibos, hibiscus, roasted cocoa pieces, licorices, vanilla, raspberry, blackcurrant and pomegranate. 
The label said this tea was perfect for someone who was looking to excite his tastebuds, who wasn't afraid to try new things, who was passionate about tea and only dreamt of the finest ingredients; a person who liked to be healthy or had the desire to be healthier and was looking for a long and loving relationship...so this was perfect for meeeee!!!
Wanting: to find the inspiration and the right concentration to write my final paper for the university.
Feeling: proud about my new english project at the nursery school and for the enthusiasm of the children during my lessons!!!

Love
xoxo

  1. I loved The Snow Child when I read it last year - a perfect winter read! I saw The Theory of Everything last week and loved it - I grew up in Cambridge so it was good to see lots of places I recognised!

  2. I'm really looking forward to seeing The Theory of Everything, all the reviews I've read have been great! Although I have been warned I'll need to take tissues with me!
