In the meantime I also learned how to deal with furry stuff like this. The thing that bother me a lot was because the fur all over the place and there is no way but vaccum them rightaway. I Couldnt find the spare time to upload it till today. Too busy with facebook....hahahhahahahahhah.. what an excuse! So here we are... as you can see the lining (I must admit) well constucted ;). Complimenti Ritney!! sei brava....hahahhahahah like always. hey sayam... thanks for the fur!

Clothes Recycle

I prefer to do some sewing with this antique singer I have. This one came along the way from London. To meet the new sewer which is ...ME..

But not long after that... I decide to vacum the house instead. Guess what ..after I watched "desperate housewives" on you tube.. I feel like clean up..hahahahhahahahahah.. Now I really need to get some shower.. but I wonder weather I should watch something first to get the inspiration ...???? maybe..
And this is the result ^^ Not bad really regarding its a left over..

Dog and Coat and Paris

I took this picture from someone's shop somewhere in Paris. I think it is pretty cool..
It's a picture of the dining room from the house in Paris where I stayed for a week. It was tidy until we arrived and messed things up.
I went to Paris the other time was totally by chance! Silvia (my sister in law) she sent me the night train ticket from Bologna central and arrived straight to Paris. I thought It was quite easy.. Eventhough I held my pee al night coz I didnt want to leave my luggage un-guard in d compartment. I got so paranoia after heard many bad experience on d night train.
When I arrived ..Silvia already there. Things always been easy for me..mmmhh
She's been very nice to me.. She cooked fish in d oven for us.. she took me around.. she lent us d house... she was nice!
The thing that impressed me alot was Eiffel tower. It was just simply a masterpiece. I also went to Montmarte for fabric shopping but I didnt buy many.
It was cold in Paris on November. On our back home to Bologna... the toll road side was cover by snow.. all white... Car windscreen was frozen.. We didnt stop. INdeed we knock out n had a nap inside d frozen car... It was alright.
I was happy.

In Italy they call it "cappodano" I am not sure how it supposed to write. With double P or double N...????? Anyway.. I spent my new years eve Together with my GF from Indonesia and her family at their home in Milan (Apparantely she is going to move to Indonesia so its a bit like a farewell party aswell ). Some adults and kids... kids.. they are like a little monster that only able to SCREAMMMM and CRRRRYYYYYYY so LOOUUUDDDDDD!!! Now I am back in Bologna. Happy new year 2009 and I just dont know where to start but hey... what do I care. I am going to think and live right now without need to concern so much for the future... (promise!) I made torta di riso. Become my speciality so far :). My GF she cook a lot like usuall... everybody bring their own food.... faces I've never seen before. oh..this is how to make torta di riso.. and you dont need to be a real Bolognese to know how to make' em : 100gr rice- 1 liter of milk- bring' em to boil for 10minutes. Wait till cool or just leave the pot outside the window in case of winter. Mix with 3 eggs-canditi-mandorle/almond-amaretti or whatever you prefer. Bake for an hour till looks dark. Easy peasy!
