doll house

I made this for my cousin s birthday. I ve been assembling doll house articles and making jewelry out of them for years now. There was the tea cup and slice of cake rings, the beer mug broach, the veggies in a jar pins....

this is the first sign of Cosimo being back in Paris....

i have to tell you this story

So I was supposed to take the Eurostar to London at 12:25.

I get to the Station in Paris and there is 3000 people in front

of me waiting to take their trains. There was a technical problem

in London, no trains had gone back and forth all morning.

I gave up on leaving that day and went the desk to exchange my ticket.

There i didn't feel so good, asked for a chair to sit down on.

When I felt better I went up to a desk.

The agent asked me if I was feeling better, I answered that

I needed to go to London to see my doctor...

5 mn later I had a priority ticket,I was

escorted to the platform, the train arrived,

I got in first and found myself in business

class with a good meal, champagne and architecture magazines.

Oh yeah and I got a free ticket as a compensation for the 1:30 hour delay.

A good start to a great trip...

Eat shit, all of you. and listen to Franco Battiato.

Forbes magazine tells us they are the richest couple of the moment; in 2009 they made 122 million dollars. And you know what? That is no reason for them to act all crazy. You won't find any trash on them, but you will find photos of them laughing at basketball games, kissing on the beach and walking around holding hands. Money,power, fame, happiness and stability. Is this perfection or what?

June Carter was 3 years older than Johnny Cash and had divorced twice before knowing him. They met in 1956 because they both signed with the same record company. They fell in love slowly and got married in 1968. They performed together and were never seen apart... Jonnhy died a few months after June. They were partners...that's what I want, a partner.

When Louis XV met Jeanne Bécu, he was 58 and she was 25. She sold silk and lace in a fashionable shop in Paris and he was the king of France. They fell madly in love/lust and stayed together until the king died. Jeanne could not be introduced to the court without a title, so the king arranged for her to marry le comte du Barry. Louis XV was known for his sexual appetite, and their sexual adventures made the whole population o Versailles blush.

Today I accomplished a task I love/tread: re-folding my whole closet. Thanks to Debbie, it went smoothly and now I can't get my eyes off the perfection of each stack. I might go out in pijamas so I won't have to disturb this work of art.

ink

I always have a notebook with. I fill it up with drawings, doodles, lists, lists, lists, school work, notes, reminders.... I 've tried several sizes, shapes; I've tried hard cover, thick paper, lines, dots, detachable pages, colourful pages, moleskines, school notebooks...I still haven't found the perfect one but I've gotten used to the thin A5 format you can see above. This photo is of the notebooks I've kept these 3 last years, 8 of them are thin A5, see I wasn't lying.

bento

Laure is my munchin' partner. I mean, her and I,we have been eating all over town day long. One of our favorites of the moment is this bento. The restaurant that makes it, Enishi, is 5mn away from my place, in le 18éme. The bento is authentic, fresh, tasty, filling, varied...perfect, and to make things better it's so affordable.
