It’s Sunday evening and I’m back at my pc. Right in time for a new post about the last days…
Last thursday I decided to go back to Tuscany to spend few days with my family and to enjoy the last days of sunny and hot weather. I love beach in September. No crowds, no screaming children all over, the sea water was clean and freezing.
To me Tuscany is like heaven, it’s my medicine when I feel sad and blue and when I have some worries I look at the sea and I feel calm and quite… It has the power to change my mood in a very short period, it’s therapeutic…
Don’t you think?
I need the sun and the sea as the air to breathe!
I read my book ( I’ve almost finished the last book of the Twilight series, I adored all of them and I can’t wait to see the next episode “New Moon”), I listened my favourite music and renewed my tan…
I come back to Bologna on Saturday afternoon because I had a dinner chez Federica. She did an housewarming dinner with all of our friends. Before, me and Mr B., we went for a walk and we had an aperitif just the two of us. He wasn’t with me in Tuscany and I missed him too much!
Federica and Giacomo (federica’s boyfriend) did an awesome job on how they decorated their little love nest! I know that most of you know her and her blog and you know what I’m talking about. It’s very very pretty and delicate. The main features of the house are : soft colors and a particular attention to details, a romantic touch with a french inspiration, warm and bright. It’s cosy and welcoming. I really like it!!!
They set the table and put candles everywhere. The dinner was great as well as the chats with my friends. We had a very nice
The were also the boyfriends… they are just not in the pics! Thanks Patata! (it’s how I call her Potato!)
Then , today we went to visit Mr B.’s relatives for lunch. It was his granny’s birthday. They live in the country where I had the chance to see magic transformation of fall. Beautiful colors and still warm and sunny! It’s like what people call Indian summer…
We spent the afternoon at a vintage faire where, unfortunately, I couldn’t take any pics, and we ended the weekend with this fantastic sunset!
… and that’s all for today!
Before to go I have to thank you for your comments and emails! Thank you ladies…I’ll be back with answers and commenst to your blogs really soon…Be patient!
A particular “Thanks” to Elle for the awards she gave me…

Those pictures are amazing. I'm very jealous.

What a great weekend! I too, love the beach in September for all those reasons! This weekend was busier than usual. I went for walks in parks, took a boat ride (the ferry to staten island), then took a wine and pasta class yesterday. I'll post about that tomorrow, but today I've got some recipes from the "inspiration" over the weekend!

What a lovely weekend for you! Tuscany's beaches look similar to ours here in Yanchep. Beautiful! I love the way your friend has decorated her home. I've been decorating this weekend, too. And today we went to a fair, but I also have no photos because I left the memory card for my camera at home! Wendy xxx

thank you so much for the award, i'm glad you like my blog =)
-
these pictures are great, they really made me need a day at the beach!
-
I love the beach and sunset pictures. I went to a park on Friday that is right at the end of an island. There is no beach but just being by the ocean makes me so happy. My friend has a home there and I am so jealous she can see the water all the time. Maybe someday I will live by the water. Hope you have a wonderful week! :)

Happy new day!

I wish I could be near the ocean right now...Beautiful pictures!!! Have a beautiful week :o)

You live in Italy? Ugh I was there for a month and didn't venture out to the ocean. Kinda hate myself for that.
-
What an amazing weekend! Tuscany looks gorgeous! And I agree with you cant wait for New Moon to come out, the Twilight series is my favorite book series!

There's nothing quite like a meal shared with good friends! And Tuscany wouldn't be half bad either! Loving that sunset and the blue blue ocean. I hope you are well, Gaia. It's good to be back. I always love your blog. :)
