Vintage Art: Tahiti

On my list to visit. It's for sure some place I would love to spend some relaxing days. Looking at this print, forget about the girl, I'm going for the fruits haha! Miss tropical fruits. I do get them here too but I love it when they're always accessible. Just googled some Tahiti photos, wah gorgeous place. Wanna go!

Decorative Art: Ecole de Cuisine

They must have lots of good food in here. I enjoy food, much more good food :-). I can't understand why I wasn't so much into it before. I might have been really lazy. Eating specially the healthy way is one thing that should be given attention. Eat healthy and everything will follow - that's so true!

Vintage Art: Pierrot Absinthe

Now Pierrot is drinking. No surprise there considering what Columbine did to him ;-). Ah no worry Pierrot, there are plenty of women deserving of your love and even prettier than Columbine. Hubby was kind of pissed at me for picking on this guy last time :-). I'm just a bully sometimes, peace!

Fine Art: Rupe Rupe (Fruit Gathering in Tahiti)

Oh how I love picking fruits. I wish to own lots of fruit trees so I'd be having fun harvesting later. No, I'm not talking about Farmville :-). It has to be a real farm with real trees. When I was younger, I would climb to get a ridiculously tiny, yellow guava. So much effort for such thing but I remember how excited and eager I always was to get one.

Vintage Art: Primo - Red

Hm, candies? The colored ones look like something sweet. I always go through the sweets department everytime we're grocery shopping. It feels like being in that Wonka Chocolate Factory. Lots of sweets! Just the sight makes one excited. And yeah talking about sweets, I mentioned it's carnival here today so there must be lots of them :-). Alaaf!

Decorative Art: Seek Happiness

Last week, I was posting a similar poster. It says It'll cost nothing to dream and everything not to. Something to ponder about, don't you think. This one caught my attention today. We tend to seek happiness when happiness is actually a choice. At the back of my mind, I kind of know but I've got to be reminded a lot.

Photography: Wooden Canoes Laden with Goods for Sale at Floating Market, Damnoen Saduak, Thailand

I love the colors and I love going to markets getting fresh fruits and veggies. I love the thought that there are plenty to eat afterwards when I get home. Somehow it's not the same if someone is doing the shopping for me because when I buy something, I'm already imagining how it would taste like. Food has to be enjoyed from the moment you buy them.

Vintage Art: Bertolli

I'm getting hungry looking at this. It's time for lunch but some minutes ago, I still didn't have appetite. I love fried fish and this really makes me hungry, yum! So I guess got to quit blogging now. Hope everyone has a great day. Don't forget to eat!

Fine Art: Apple Tree I, c.1912

I love to eat apples! Anything fruity would do. I'm used to have fruits as dessert but we ran out since yesterday. Got to fetch some later. I'm missing the taste; that juicy, sweet, refreshing taste after a heavy meal. Love it! It makes everything lighter. Last time, we got really crunchy apples. Hope we could get some good ones again.

Decorative Art: Nothing to Dream

Yeah it's true, it'll cost nothing to dream. I dream a lot and one is to drink that ice-cold lemonade somewhere in the tropics or some place having similar weather, hehe. Everything I drink right now is lukewarm. I'm getting used to it somehow but of course a change is always welcome.

Vintage Art: Bertozzi Parmigiano-Reggiano

Cheeeeeese! I can see my hubby sniffing too :-). He loves cheese! I like cheese too but can live without it. That had been proven when I wasn't allowed to take any dairy products, well I guess for one year. Tough but I survived. Happy though that I can eat a bit here and there again like melted organic cheese on my self-baked organic bread, yum!

Vintage Art: Un Fournier

My colors today are purple, yellow, orange and another orange :-). Lots of sun colors, maybe because sun is still shining and serves as my current natural back heater. Very nice! I like this image. Looks like she's got lots of energy and fun. I've just been dancing actually and I had fun but energy, whew, running low :-).

Photography: Kitchen -cupboard

Wow! I love to see my kitchen like this colorful. Looks like the owner enjoys cooking and eating a lot. Having different ingredients always available in the kitchen makes it easy to have new ideas what to cook next. You buy herbs and spices, they accumulate fast. Once put in glass containers like this, voila, lovely cupboard!

Vintage Art: Chateau Lapeyre - Vertical

More heat... fiery red hair and some red wine. I just wanna party, that will help too. Got some Lady Gaga here, will be playing that soon. Next time I'll buy karaoke, that'll be fun! At the moment, I just wanna eat. Warm lunch for me, 2 kinds of warm soup. Have a nice weekend everyone!

Photography: Sebastiana

What a glamorous shot, I love it! She's somehow letting her coffee get cold, pity. Still got to practice when it comes to portrait photography. Someday, I can shoot beautiful models like this one too ;-). For the start, I've been doing something to launch my photography blog. Not yet so many photos but you know I've got to start somewhere. Check it out... Art Lover's Photography.

Photography: Citrus Fruit

It's really cold outside already. I won't be surprised if it will snow any time from now. It's also the time for flu and cold. In fact hubby got knocked out by one. We still have some clementines left but it would have been better if we were able to shop last time we went out. Hm, got into all this christmas market stuff.

Vintage Art: Toilettes d'Ete

Since I can't have some champagne, a nice vintage print would do :-). Cheers to the hubby's success the past weeks and probably to more success in the future (got to be optimistic)! Proud of you! I feel like the lady in pink dress below :-).

Photography: Spice Pot

I like spicy food, I grew up with it though compared to other children in my hometown, I was kind of a moderate consumer of spice :-). My tongue got used to strong taste. When we cook meat, we kind of make sure that the meat taste won't be there anymore :-). Being able to try other cuisine opens up possibilities to try other recipes with less spice or other spices aside from what I got used to.

Vintage Art: Huile D'olive

I like this print, makes me like to cook. We use three kinds of oil at home, one is sunflower, vegetable and olive. They're all good! My hubby, when he does the salmon, that's always with olive! Aside from it's great aroma and taste, olive oil is known to be good for the heart so you keep your heart guys healthy.

Vintage Art: Malt Shop I

Oh look at the price, only 5cent! I'm feeling bad already just looking at it. Want one! My last ice cream was some months ago. I had to be at least in a really warm place to compensate for the cold dessert. It sucks to be cold sensitive but hey I'll be soon going to a warmer place again so yeah ice cream here I come :-). Just have to remind myself, moderate is the key.
