On crafty stuff

Sunday, March 30th, 2008

Anna! has been in a real crafty mood lately, and here’s my response entry (YouTube, anyone?). I am actually quite the gifted girl when it comes to creating with my hands - problem is, however: I don’t enjoy it, not the least bit.

And on the subject of Brazil

Saturday, March 8th, 2008

The last couple of days I’ve enjoyed listening to her - and today I discovered that her daughter too has a career as a singer. Although a bit more [...]
