real. a giant cat and a tiny plant. fake. a tiny cat and a giant plant.

I’m so happy Pirate decided to stick around while I was taking my daily pictures. because as soon as I spotted that small cat-toy my sister had left out, I couldn’t help but notice the similarities between the actual and the plastic.

happy times.

today wasn’t the greatest day. connect the lines and deal with it. that’s what I’ve tried to do.

I’ve missed someone lately. only, I can’t really figure out who. or perhaps more accurately, I definitely know who it is, and it hurts. champagne. iTunes randomiser. endless white sand beach. crab hunting. skateboard at night. and winston cigarettes.

quite luckily, I received the latest lines & shapes. beautiful as ever.

after my sister’s birthday a couple of days ago, it’s now my mum who’s turning forty-nine.

happy birthday maman!

today was thus spent making her a cake. a savarin drenched with vanilla syrup, and filled with a vanilla crème légère and poached pears.

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

can’t believe I’ve managed to stick to this little 50mm photo project for three entire days. hopefully many more will come.

so far it’s been very enjoyable. tonight, I’m going to a friend’s, who lives on the highest village in Europe from which the view is amazing. three hundred and sixty degrees around.

today really feels like a let-the-magic-happen day. I’m so happy my cheeks hurt from too much similing. pâtisserie does that to you.

hope you’re all having a sweet day as well.

as with most commitements I take, I never manage to keep them. busy day to day life gets in the way. however, I’ll try and make this one happen.

after onecube, le cahier d’exercices, and the cloud collection - which, by the way, stopped very recently because I really felt like it was drawn to an end, just to name a few, I’m going to take three daily pictures with my 50mm lens.

it needs to be used more. and it will.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

those things I bought a couple of days ago really feel like a treasure. I plan to make a necklace out of them.

hopefully it’ll be all pretty.

long overdue. nice souvenir. it was the end of the summer. sushis. pebbles. and cameras.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

so if I remember right, I was supposed to post pictures of my sushi-on-the-beach night with D., but things got in the way.

first I have my 5am to 1pm pâtissierie job that makes my heart so happy I have no words for it. for once, I really feel like I’ve found what I’m supposed to do. and it’s just terrific.

second, I’ve had tons of orders lately: posters, cd jackets, and… cakes. I’m quite happy.

third, I’m so supposed to post the second part of the SHF round up on foodbeam, but cropping the pictures takes time.

fourth, J. came over, put make up on my face and took pictures of me making silly faces. I love him.

well, I guess, the beach pictures will have to wait for a couple of extra hours.

I’ve been here - at home - for five days, and so far I’m enjoying it. it’s been very quiet and busy at the same time. but I guess things will fly by faster from tomorrow, as I’m starting my internship at pâtisserie Lac in Nice.

looking forward to it! and to actual autumn weather.
