nice birthday surprise

Yesterday I got so many presents and cards for my birthday, good friends called and emailed me and after a long day I checked my FB and Etsy account. And I could not believe it, but I sold 5 of my collection cups. Ok, it wasn't that surprising, because I wrote with So Min Lee already and made a rEserved ISTING for her, but it was a very nice birthday surprise. 

My fist collection cup was shipped to Wisconsin, USA. This time all 5 sets are going to be used in South Korea. 

This two sets are my favorites, because they are such a nice 'couple' and the decor is just perfect for a dreamy tea or coffee meet up with a good friend.

This one is my favorite when it comes to design, because even if its more than 40 years old, it looks modern and stylish to me.

And last but not least, these 2 beauties. The golden one is very classical and fits for nearly every occasion. The pink / purple one is very girlish, I think and gives your table a nice splash of color.

But for now I have to say god bye to all 5 beautiful German collection cups and send them on a long journey to South Korea.

I am happy that I sold them, but I really like these cups, so I am also a little sad. But I am happy in the other way, because I found some beautiful 'new' ceramic pots, cups and plates during the last weeks and they will be up soon.

morning

I like mornings. You can greet the day, enjoy yourself and relax until the day really starts. I don't like routine, but the first 30 minutes of a day are most of the time the same. A good self-made caffè latte (with an original Italian Espresso maker) with a double espresso and half milk half soy-milk, a book to read or my laptop.

That's how my day starts and I am happy every single second I can sit in the kitchen and enjoy my morning. 

We should enjoy ourself every day even if it's just for half an hour. And it doesn't matter if you take a bath or relax on the porch, sit in your garden or listen to music. Every day has 24 hours and I think we can take a little for ourselves. 

Let's appreciate and savor life's little pleasures.
