De seguida...

...I'm still in my kitchen creating...
...I wish I was in full contact with my therapist instead!

...Miss Frosty...


...Mr. Moose



...and the Pup...



...this time, every year, I change my sleeping patterns, wear the same clothes, have as my companion the lap top, radio and tv...eat the fastest tasteless food...create...feel depressed for not being in touch with the outside world...and get edgy...

...don't get me wrong, I love what I'm doing, and it's very creative...but if you're in the neighborhood, come on over for some company and a hug...it is always welcomed!

Casitas, casitas, casitas!

...I want you to meet the village people!


...the dinning room table is full of these, to the point where I have to use my creativity to invent more space...


...it will be very hard for me to part from them, because I love them all!




...as for the smell of gingerbread....mmmmm,  is unbelievable!   The whole building has a bake shop aroma and I have people knocking on my door to see what I'm up to! 

...Christmas lights and candles...ginger and cinnamon....oranges and cloves...Dino singing "I've got my love to keep me warm"...and then Diana on her piano, "Christmas time is here"...movies like '"Holiday Inn" and "The bells of St. Mary's"...

...it might be a tiring period for many of us...or financially difficult...emotionally exhausting, too...but it's Christmas time and it's magic!  Let's put some warmth in our heart without too much....good friends, our loved ones, sleeping on the couch with the Christmas tree lights glowing...a glass of wine...a cat purring....it's so simple and so lovely!

Mi regalo

...Angel...


...19 years ago an Angel came to me...to give me life...to save me...to bring hope into my life...to teach me...to make me discover what true, unconditional love is...

...an Angel child who only gives love...who turned her pain into creativity and strength...an Angel touch so therapeutic...an Angel voice so soothing...

...my precious gift I thank you for choosing me to be your mom...I exist only where you are...

Happy Birthday...

La primera casita



...the first one is done!


...100 more to go!

...I want to say "shalom" to my cousin's mom in Israel who reads my blog every day, an amazing woman whose opinion counts....neshikot!
