New beginnings
Hello dear friends,
With the beginning of the year, I also finalised my plans of renewing my blogging experience-and yours.
I have discussed this in the past, but I was not sure if I wanted to do it, and what it would mean to my relationship with you. You know how I cherish our friendship!
And yet, I wanted to put almost everything on a new basis, the "green" part and the "Greek" part of my blog, with who I am now, almost five years after I launched my ship in the blogosphere, and thus, to put forward a more honnest and whole "me".
So,
with all this in mind,
I am launching
The E-Diaries
I hope to see you there, soon!

2 days for Christmas
Hello dear friends,
I thought I wouldn't stop by before Christmas, but here you are, and here I am :-)
I am particularly happy that our dearest friend Denise is back on-line. Hi Denise! We've missed you, and were so worried about you!
We are two days away from Christmas eve, and I am looking forward to switching off must-do-contacts and concentrate on family and friends.
We are facing some challenges right now. Both C and myself have some exams to do that are not particularly pleasant, but we must do them. So please say a little prayer for us, that our exams come out nice and clean.
Prayers work miracles, especially on Christmastime!
The general gloom in this part of the world thanks to Greece's politicians and the world money lenders is suffocating at times. If you smile, people look at you as if you were a wierdo. We are all supposed to bend our knees and cut open our veins for the parasites to feed themselves on our blood. We won't do it, some of us won't at least. So we are holding on tight and try to avoid people who bring us down with their moods and pessimism.
In this spirit, last week we hosted a little party at the shop, for our customers' kids and everyone who wanted to come. People were so surprised we did not charge anything. They were expecting to pay, and many did not come because they thought they ought to. In the 14th year in this part of the world, and I still feel like an alien at times.
OK, stop wining, dear, it's Christmas!
See my new blog theme? You know I like changing it, like every other month? This time, Dani, a lovely person and a skilled blog designer made me a custom header and a new background. So I am all dressed up for Christmas, blogwise!
So, ladies, I am puting on some sparkly lights, blowing red lipsticked kisses your way, and wishing you a night of wonder and love in your hearts and souls.
From our family creche to you all out there,
Merry Christmas!

2010 Christmas Tour of Homes
Hello dear friends,
Welcome to my 2010 Christmas Tour of Homes post!
This year we started the festive season by decorating first our shop,
...and then our home...and garden...
We wish you all a very blessed, peaceful Christmas season, and a lovely 2011!
Snowtime!
Hello dear friends,
This morning we woke up to snow. Not too much, but enough to keep the kids and ourselves from going to school and work in the morning.
i love the blue light of the morning
...our garden...
...our doggy neighbour...
...hot chocolate time...
I hope you are all baking and decorating,
and getting ready for a beautiful, blessed and merry Christmas!

Christmas ding-dong-ding!
Hello dear friends,
I wasn't in the mood for blogging either. But since we decorated our home and our shop, I thought I'd stop by and add some festive cheer to my cyber-home. I have also been posting over at the Happy Turtle about Christmas crafts and finds, so when I'm not here, try over there and say "hi!".
God willing, I hope to stop by again for a couple more Christmas posts.
See you soon,

-Life on Mars?
-We are being attacked by Allien?
-Scientists realised that the Universe is a huge super wise living and kicking being?
-Earthians will be colonising Mars or the Moon?
-A delegation of extra-terrestrians landed with their space ship somewhere in the US?

What do you think it will be?
Oh, this is so exciting! I certainly hope it is exciting!
