When I arrived home on Monday I found these waiting for me

I have the one in "dark oak". They're handmade by emedemarta. She sells these (and other) beauties at her Etsy shop. Plus, she's lovely.

Two "Keep calm and carry on" posters.

Favourite places - Barcelona - Parc Güell & Parc del Labertint d' Horta

Parc Güell

The place is amazing, plus one enjoys an awsome view of Barcelona.

Small luxuries

Small (and cheap) luxuries for whenever one feels gloomy:

• A manicure & pedicure
• Going to a museum (and buying a postcard or a cheap souvenir from the store)
• Going to the flicks
• Curl up at bed with a book, a maganize ...
• A DVD + popcorn
• A ticket home (maybe not so cheap)
• Airport people watching
• A trip to Ikea (on a budget)
• A glass of wine or a Corona, with any food one fancies
• Funny stationery (I love Muji's, among others)
• Hot chocolate with marshmallows
• To do handicrafts
• Thrift shopping
