Coraline

They are making a movie of Neil Gaimans “Coraline” and Henrik Selick is writing (along with Neil) and directing it. Jennifer Saunders and Dawn French will be the voices of Miss Forcible and Miss Spink.
Not sure I really like it, based on the poster… I don’t know.

Birdcage

Like this picture I found at Sköna Hem, looks warm and cozy.

Wes Anderson is wonderful weird…

I don’t know what it is but his movies are always so… I don’t know but there’s something about them even if they’re weird like “The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou”. Here is his latest one, “The Darjeeling Limited”; it’s on my list of movies I want to see.

Eternal Spirits

Corset from British Eternal Spirits, so pretty but a £195 is not something I have lying around the house and if I did I don’t think a corset would be my main priority. But a girl can dream...

Nice shrug

Found this cashmere shrug by Harrison Morgan at Saks Fifth Avenue and I only wish it was black, or at least dark grey but I guess I could live with something being chocolate.

Bed on the beach

Picture by Chis Everand
I really like ocean and sleeping so… and I also really like this site called Sarah Kaye where I spend hours last night. I didn’t know you could overdose on inspiration so be careful.


What time is it?

Found these cute clocks, well maybe not cute because they are huge but they are nice away way. Clocks are cool.
Found at Howard Miller

Doughnuts doesn’t have to be round

Tried to make doughnuts a few weeks ago, I was sure it was hard but in fact it was easy (or maybe I had a good recipe?) and SO good. A hot doughnut along with your tea is divine! But it hit me that they don’t have to be round, do they? So I took some cookie cutters and tadah! Heart shaped and star shaped doughnuts! I love them, they are so cute!

Sweeney Todd

Here I was worrying that there weren’t any good movies but I had forgotten all about Tim Burtons “Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street”. How could I? Johnny Depp and Alan Rickman in a Tim Burton film and I forget about it? Shame on me…

Hatchet Trailer

Fall is upon us, we can’t deny it, and a part of the season is to watch scary movies and eat unhealthy things, with tea of course (and with a little luck, socks you knitted all by you onesy). So it’s time to start digging around for apple recipes, knitting patterns and good scary movies. And “Hatchet” isn’t one. Sure inbreed rednecks are scary, remember “Deliverance”? But this? Please… Is it just me or don’t they make good horror movies anymore?

Harry Potter stamps!

Thanks to Jessica (the nice one) who got me these Harry Potter stamps. Silly but I really wanted them; maybe they’ll be a wanted collector’s item one day? Anyway, they are cute and they are all mine! Again, thanks Jessica!!
