A Fine Day

We are currently experiencing unbelievably beautiful weather! Blue skies, 27°C (80.6°F), a light breeze - too good a day to spend indoors, so hubby and I both took a day off and decided to go for a drive around the countryside. Besides, it was our 10th wedding anniversary :) After driving for a bit we came upon a charming village. I saw some cute houses, a pretty flower shop and an ancient cloister. We walked passed a rippling stream and then in the middle of nowhere a jewel of a restaurant! We decided to stop there for lunch and sat in their pretty courtyard that even had a little fountain...it was a perfect day!

Wir hier im Münsterland werden ja momentan mit richtig schönem Wetter verwöhnt! Mein Mann und ich haben uns deshalb gestern frei genommen. Wir sind etwas raus gefahren bis wir zu diesem reizenden kleinen Ort inklusive uraltem Kloster gekommen sind. Es gab dort auch einen hübschen Blumenladen und kleine individuelle Boutiquen und traumhaft schöne Häuser. Unser Spaziergang führte uns zu einem wunderschönen Bach und gleich dahinter etwas versteckt ein Juwel von einem Restaurant. Wir haben uns in den charmanten Innenhof (mit Springbrunnen) gesetzt und dort zu Mittag gegessen. Das Essen und das ganze Ambiente war hervorragend...es war ein wirklich schöner Tag!

wishing you a wonderful weekend; I hope the sun is shining wherever you live!

wünsche euch ein wunderschönes, sonniges Pfingstwochenende!

Country Western Theme at Dawanda

Every other month or so, Dawanda, my online selling venue, comes up with a new 'hot trend and theme'. The newest theme revolves around all things country/western. I was browsing idly, and to my surprise my star-spangled denim wristlet was chosen to be featured! That's my wristlet in the middle row, far right. I'm always stunned when the Dawanda team chooses an item from my shop, because there are thousands of shops specializing in bags out there...! I'm currently working on a new product for my shop. It's got nothing to do with make-up bags and purses as such, but then again, the subtitle of my shop does say .....and more! I'm also working on an envelope clutch. I always seem to be doing two things at once! I think I must train myself to concentrate on one thing at a time - I sliced my finger with the rotary cutter. Ouch! It's only a tiny cut, but my...does it bleed. Until next time,
