Glimpses of Christmas - Onnellista uutta vuotta!






From the Christmas preparations to dreaming of the next gardening season... and wishing you all much love, happiness and health for the new year! ♥






Hohhoi, nĂ€issĂ€ kuvissa ei nĂ€y, miten paljon lunta meillĂ€ on. Pilvinen sÀÀ ei innosta kuvaamaan, ja otetuista kuvista tulee ihan harmaita. Taitaa olla aika kÀÀntÀÀ katse kohti kevĂ€ttĂ€. :) Seuraavaksi muistellaan pÀÀttynyttĂ€ vuotta ja postataan puutarha-aiheista. Mukavaa joulunpyhien jatkoa ja vuodenvaihdetta... ja kaikkea hyvÀÀ uuteen vuoteenne! ♥





























































Pick one or all of them:

May your champagne be bubbly and your lashes long.

May your tea be hot and your reading time uninterrupted.

May your beer be cold and your servers smoothly running.

😊

    1. Hello, Janicce! ♥
      The small book is a garden planner, by the Italian horticultural magazine "Gardenia". I use them for my garden journalling, no notebook apps for me. :)

  31. Oh my gosh, I haven't had that white dessert in so long. Can I ask what the name of it is? Your Christmas tree is beautiful, and those rolls look amazing. It was so nice to see a glimpse of Christmas around your home, Sara.

    1. Thank you, Sheri! ♥
      The white dessert is (Northern) Italian torrone. (The flavour of this bar is "Exotic Fruit".) I prefer the soft one... It's even better than chocolate. :)

  32. Yes, I did see your comment on our blog, thank you, Sara. Although I'm taking a blog break, I will still come by and visit you, and you can stop by any time, as the girls will be posting when they can. I know I've seen this dessert before, and now I know what it's called. : ) I remember it tasting so delicious.
