Between blue and green


I really like the shades between blue and green. In the summer, they stir the imagination and remind one of wonderful Caribbean vacations. I think about those quite often, because, over the last little while, I've had to repair quite a lot of things in my house, and completely change even more. The renovations continue, and the Caribbean, at the moment, is something to dream of.

It was 12:30 in Toronto



Now I can give instructions on how to crash the party of a 20-year-old guy in Toronto. You need to have a great camera. You need to have some insider friends among those who are celebrating. Preferably, this insider will have forgotten the keys to his place, and his parents happen to be your friends. Of course, you need to be coming back from a great party yourself, in order to look tired, but not too tired; well-dressed, but moderately so. With a little glint in your eye, hungry for adventure.

A Home You'd Like To Return To


This summer has turned out to be a very busy one.  I am grateful to all who continue reading my blog and commenting. These photos are from the previous weekend, when we went to visit our friends. Their house is such that you would like to return to again and again.

Summer Is Here


The main colours around me right now are - believe it or not - red and green. Last week, we celebrated Canada Day. We went on an outing to a resort. Our way was temporarily blocked by a little parade dedicated to the day. I liked all the characters that were present there. They were enthusiastic, outrageously cute, and possessed an infectious love for life.

Their Secret Lives


It is the season when their lives has become public. In reality, the majority of their lives are spent in secret. They entertain their guests, dance often, drink morning dew, and don't even realize that, one day, the summer will end. We are the ones who witness their lives.

Other People's Cats


You won't see any photos of my cat in this post. This is all other people's cats. However, the longer I live with our adopted cat, Deniska, the more I'm glad that, at one point in time, we have taken him from the shelter. I can see that love is able to perform miracles. I think that his next step would be to learn how to actually speak to us - that's how extraordinary his personality is.

The Royal Botanical Gardens, and Some Latest News


What a pleasure that our electricians have finished working on the second floor. Now, them and I have decided to take a break from each other.

Treasures, Contractors, Mother's Day, and More


First of all, I would like to both thank and apologize to everyone who visits my blog and leaves such nice comments. It really helps me in my current situation, which I will elaborate on a little later.
