Yesterday I went to Helsinki by train. I had my knitting needles with me and enjoyed a peaceful moment in the train admiring morning mist, knitting and drinking tea. I had a piece of Scotland with me (a scarf I bought this summer) and something lovely that reminds me of beautiful friendship (a tote bag from dear friend). My trip was work related so I barely had any free time in Helsinki but still stole a moment for myself to have a nice cup of tea and "Ellen Svinhufvud" cake here. On my way back to the train station in the evening, I popped in a tiny, little book shop called Pocket shop and found a kind of special edition of one of my all time favourites. I will show you the book later this week end.
I have catched a cold...so I need to rest a bit this week end. I am still in my pyjamas and me and my pyjamas are now going to go to a little pizza party (pizza, pepsi and free time) our family has in the living room :)
Sending happy thoughts,
Anu
ps. I am happy, happy, happy about this skirt I found some time ago. This picture is far from good quality but just wanted to show you. It is so nice to find something lovely.
Hey there Anu, I hope you are feeling better from the sniffles ? the calm of your train trip in the morning mist is more than perfect. I like that in Finland you are already wearing tights, here it is still a bit too warm, so I have to be patient a little longer :) ...oh & I love the skirt !! is it a light denim or a knit fabric ? it is a very flattering pencil skirt silhouette that I love and would definitely wear my self with a skinny belt. Take care and feel better soon. xo
ReplyDeleteThank you Nat, I am actually feeling a little better than in the morning today. I have just rested this whole day.
DeleteI am an autumn person and every year I get to wear tights again after a hot summer I feel so good. Let's hope you can also wear those soon.
The skirt is actually made of jersey fabric and is so very comfortable because of that. I was surprised to find a pencil skirt that actualy fits my body shape. Super happy!!
Beautiful fogy, rainy images, very peaceful. Nothing better than a piece of cake and knitting. I agree very pretty skirt and lovely drape :)
ReplyDeleteFeel better soon!
Thank you! Rainy and misty mornings are mysterious and full of atmosphere. Silence can be heard in a special kind of way when it is misty. Almost as if the mist would mute all kins of sounds.
DeleteThank you for the skirt comment, too :)
your space is getting cozier each post and comfortable place for me
