A quick trip to the health food store and Get Fresh this afternoon and we were ready to dig in to a vegetarian lunch. We are big meat eaters in this house but vegetarian options are very frequent due largely to Georgie who loves stuff like quinoa, broccoli and veggie tofu sticks. I found these veggie sticks […]
Lefkara. That is the name of this breathtaking village just outside of Larnaca. We headed there yesterday, on a beautiful sunny but cool day with my sister and her family. The kids had a fantastic time walking through the pebbled alleyways and eating loukoumades, which again I didn’t get a picture of, because I just […]
…to my daddy who is recovering extremely well in London after his surgery. My mum and uncles told me he woke up briefly to tell them he loved them and thanked them. He then turned round to my uncle and said ROCK ON! I laughed with all my heart after a day, I […]
It’s uncommonly cold here on the island. I’ve been running errands all day -including changing my hair colour; natural hues were inspiring me- and relishing the moments of wooly hats and warm leggings. We did some shopping in the morning because I needed to stock up on all-in-ones for Georgie. He’s outgrowing everything! […]
Sunday. With no lunches or birthday parties to attend, our little family called for a mini road trip- really, is it possible to take any other kind with a 20-month old? Papa and I decided Zygi, a little fishing village outside of Limassol, would make the perfect destination. We took the coastal road and […]
Last night it hit me: My camera has gathered dust. It’s been neglected, which ultimately means that I’ve been stuck in this stupid non-productive rut for far too long. So this morning, I grabbed my trainers, a banana, some water and my camera and headed for a walk with Georgie through Athalassa […]
When I was about ten, one of my favorite role-playing games was shop keeper. My sister and friends would hang all our mother’s clothes around a bedroom, pull a desk out and start counting pretend money and trying on fancy dresses. I loved making price tags. And guess what? I still do! I will be […]
I’ve been feeling a tad underproductive these past few weeks. Always meaning to blog, always meaning to take Georgie on a long drive somewhere nice, always meaning to do this, that and the other. Instead I choose to play the role of couch potato. I’m hoping this phase will be over. Soon. I […]
Georgie is a lucky boy. I am a firm believer in luck and know my child is blessed with so much goodness in his life, I can’t help but be grateful. He has a family who loves him. One that would die for him. I read and hear about children being abandoned or […]
Sunday marked a fun day for kids in Nicosia. Apart from the Flying Away Festival, Little Kickers also had a little something planned at one of the parks. It was a hot and humid day made bearable by the big old trees and the shade they provided but everyone managed to have a lot […]
