We Need A Festival of Lights Everywhere and mostly in San Francisco

Feeling the need for visual therapy this morning, after scrolling through article after article about the Paris attacks and what we should and shouldn’t do. The idea of it all mentally draining, when thinking about it in dept. I decided I needed some lights, or fireworks or anything to do with happy thoughts to ease some of the anxiety starting to build up about the word around us.  The Berlin Festival of Lights which happened in October came to mind, admiring many of the Instagram photos and not saved online for our viewing pleasure.

In Case You Are Not A Fan of American Football

If you are like me, some weekends, you just don’t want to watch football, or the games are so boring you find yourself surfing the net, just because. That’s of course between munching all day long, sitting hunched over your laptop or something like that. So, for all of you, feeling the need to escape, I have listed a few of my – here and there – blog posts you might find interesting and maybe some form of escape.

Decor: Burberry Christmas Tree

Too soon you say? Well maybe or maybe not. But Burberry, one of my favorite designer of coats and umbrellas is decorating the Christmas tree at Claridge. News I considered necessary to share for all those interested in the smallest or huge details happening around the world. I can’t wait to see the real photos in true Burberry fashion and color scheme.

Recipe: Zucchini Oat Cake For Breakfast

This the season I crave more substance, not feeling salads or just boiled eggs, a slice of chicken. I need comfort food mostly saturday mornings,  a piece of toast perfectly spread with Mascarpone and Cherry Jam, a slice of lemon cake from Starbucks paired with a warm cup of tea, while I type away my next novel. In light of my craving, I stumbled upon this cake, surely including many healthy ingredients, so I don’t feel so guilty devouring a slice and yes with my favorite English breakfast tea infused with a cinnamon stick.

Travel: The World and If Not Then Italy

Year in and year out, I do my best not to include Italy in my annual trip to Europe because I think I’ve seen it all. But I fail miserably, finding a new tiny village to see, recreating a travel plan including this fascinating country. With that said, I have included some of my favorite articles from around the world, in travel that is. {click here for The American}
