In my cat shoes I declare my femininity. As a cat woman I am tender and warm. I love my red velvet dress with deep décolleté and warm pyjama with polar bears. The first tells me about cat confidence and the second allows me to feel fluffy and playful kitten.

String Quartet

Hello God!

Thank You for Igor Stravinsky. The composer is great. For this Friday’s night I have chosen his Three Pieces for String Quartet. The music is amazing and, mmm, a little specific. You can not expect from Stravinsky light harmonious trills and passages. He surprises by droll, mercurial, ultra-modern sounds and adventurous use of color and scoring. Violins are happily laughing because viola and cello are mechanically and funny “clock working”. I am playfully laughing in violins company. 

Viktor and Rolf created the String Quartet too. Together with Stravinsky Victor and Rolf are great on my scene. Amy Lowell, a poet, is declaiming her poetry: Stravinsky’s Three Pieces “Grotesques”, for String Quartet: Second Movement. I invite you to enjoy with me this great composition.

Violin

Pale violin music whiffs across the moon,

A pale smoke of violin music blows over the moon,

Violin2

Cherry petals fall and flutter,

And the white Pierrot,

Violin1

Wreathed in the smoke of the violins,

Splashed with cherry petals falling, falling,

VictorandRolf

Claws a grave for himself in the fresh earth

With his finger-nails.

Thank you for sharing with me the pleasure of mixing fashion, poetry and music. Have a beautiful weekend!

Delicious Wonderland

Hello God!

Thank You for Winter. Winter is Delicious Wonderland. Snow is whispering down so soft and light and a white coat covers everything. We gaze at the stars and they are so bright on a wonderful clear winter night. One of the prettiest times of year,
Winter season is finally here. We are being with family and slumbering peacefully in a blanket children wrapped me and you near Christmas tree, drinking hot chocolate and cooking yummy things… Oh, Dear Winter, we are happy to meet you!

Sweet Rondo

Hello God!

Thank You for inspiring my parents to send me in a musical school. As a result I am a pianist and you know a lot of facets of life I see in a musical forms. Today I am inspired by Rondo.

SweetRondo

Rondo is an Italian word that means round. In music a Rondo is a piece of music which has one main theme, which is heard several times, and other musical ideas in between each time. If we give the main theme a label “A” and the other musical ideas “B”, “C”, “D” etc. then the form of a rondo can be described as ABACADA. The sections in between the main “A” section are called “episodes”.

Episode

In our Sweet Rondo the main theme (A) is Chocolate. Episodes are Marzipan (B), Praline (C) and Marmalade (D). Could you hear it: Chocolate, Marzipan, Chocolate, Praline, Chocolate, Marmalade, Chocolate? Mmmmouthwatering!

Rondo

So close your eyes and feel the pleasure of chocolate as it melts upon your tongue, feel the different episodes in our sweet rondo.

Thank you very much for sharing my inspiration and enjoining the moment with a cup of coffee and a chocolate candy. I am with you!

Serenity

Hello God!

Thank You for the state of serenity when the beauty of every moment is open.

Thank you God for a lovely day
For children’s laughter while they play
And the simple things of this day.

Serenity

Thank you God for the things unseen
That show us what this life can mean,
For the voices heard and the guiding hands,
For the comfort brought from far off lands.

Tranquility

Thank you God for the sight to see
The beauties here surrounding me,
For a glimpse into the world unseen
And a thought as to what this world might have been.

by Elizabeth Anderson

Peace

I have taken the photos somewhere in the North of France in the state of absolute serenity. I am happy to share its with you because we all are connected.

Key to Immortality

Hello God!

Thank You for a dolls our children play with. You know I tell you a secret, whispering “I am writing this post because of my child is busy with her dolls”. Thank you, dolls of my daughter.

We were walking around wonderful Château de Josselin and the French told us how to love in the previous post. Today the French family – the owner of the castle share with us the code to the Key to Immortality.Musee

At the end of the 19th century, the Duchess de Rohan, great-grandmother the present owners of the castle, started to collect dolls. She has collected a dolls and toys of children for four generations and the fine collection was born.

TheFineCollection

This private collection, the most important in France, is composed of more 5000 dolls, toys and games, ranging from the 17th century up to present day.

Boys

“Childhood is measured out by sounds and smells and sights, before the dark hour of reason grows”, said John Betjeman. I know now why our own faces are grey in a mostly cases – because of this dark hour of adolescence.

Josselina

My pretty, pretty Josselina

You live in the country

Where the Sun is brighter

The grass is greener.

Dolls

Celestial Light of childhood,

I am floating in,

Gives the rays of understanding

The main enigma of life:

RedHat

Why Le Petit Chaperon Rouge is so kind to tell to wolf a road to grandmother?

Nurse

Why my Nanny is so sweetheart?

Girls

The code of the Key to Immortality

These little angels are telling to us:

We live in our children.

And children are fruits of Love.

Thank you for sharing this happy moment with me. We are kinder and wiser now than we were a second ago. Our faces are smiling and lighter, because of the happy knowledge about the code.

Happy Monday!

Jewellery Box

Hello God!

Thank You for my jewellery box I keep my treasures in. Every girl genetically loves her jewellery box. You know why? Because every jewellery box you have ever seen keeps a secret always involving a heart of owner. Her romantic heart and the finer things of life the jewellery box contains…

Let’s open the heavy door of the Chateau de Josselin, Brittany, France.

Jewel

As a cunning fox, as my curious daughter wants to see inside my jewellery box, we try to open the lid of the beautiful jewellery box we have found on the table. What is the secret inside? “Ni vous sans moi, ni moi sans vous” (“Neither you without me, neither I without you”) my cheeks are red a little because of touching a love story. Oh la,la, the French love love.

Jewellery

The history of France says L’Amour (Love) is the Ruler and Le Plaisir (Pleasure) is the Constitution. This architectural Masterpiece proves the statement. Everybody around this castle was in love. Do you feel it?

Jewelery

There are a soft fire of the rubies, there are the brilliant purple of the amethysts, and the sea green of the emeralds – all shining together in incredible union. We are mesmerised by treasures of the jewellery box and we can just imagine a love moments its keep inside.

JewelleryBox

The best way to see a love moments you try to imagine seeing inside of the jewellery box is to take your soulmate by hand and go to eat an ice cream in a cafe you have met then under an umbrella kiss each other as at the first time. It was raining, do you remember?

The hand written notes we have found should be kept in every jewellery box on our planet. “Neither you without me, neither I without you”,please, write her a note. Her heart and jewellery box will keep it forever with the secret of your happiness. The Ruler is Love, by the way. The French know it for sure. So do we now.

Thank you for sharing with me this romantic and full of love moment.

Mrs. Novembra

Hello God!

Thank You for November. I celebrate today, November’s first day! As for me it is strange that usually the month is connected with melancholy and depression. Today I have met a wonderful personage to broke the stereotype. Meet, Mrs. Novembra (in original “Mrs. Giffilan” by James Reeves).

When Mrs. Novembra
Is troubled with troubles,
She flies to the kitchen
And sits blowing bubbles.

Novembra

When Mrs. Novembra
Is worried by money,
When her feet are like lead
And her head’s feeling funny,
When there’s too much to do,
And the chimney is smoking,
And everything’s awkward
And wrong and provoking,
When the washing won’t dry
For the rain’s never ending,
When cupboards need cleaning
And stockings want mending,
When the neighbours complain
Of the noise of the cat,
And she ought to be looking
For this and for that,
And never a line comes
From her married daughter –
Then off to the kitchen
With soap and warm water
Goes Mrs. Novembra
And all of her troubles;
And she puffs them away
In a great cloud of bubbles.

In joyful abandon
She puffs them and blows them,
And all round about her
In rapture she throws them;
When round, clear and shiny
They hang in the air,
Away like a shadow
Cotes worry and care.

You see this story in the animation with music by great Bach. It definitely worths of 3 minutes of your life because the recipe of happiness in November is here. Thank you for your being in my life. Happy November!
