We had a visitor from Italy, Giulia, we took her for a stroll in a wonderfully warm spring weather. An early spring and Giulia, both are ever so welcome.
We have new hangers in the hallway.
Józefa Wilkonia Bestiarium, I especially like the bear and the cute hares in the bottom of the page. With Kasia Jackowska's help - Józefa's illustrations for the jungle book, would love to have it. Here is also a blogpost over at Animalarium.
There was never a dull moment in the life of Scarlet Scales. Her morning horse rides were filled with encounters of all sorts. The day she met a wild rabbit waving a lasso just about to catch a bird was memorable. He said if you continue towards three white mountain tops you are sure to find the circus tent. No one has ever came out victorious making the Indian elephant crack a smile.
.
Whoever is clever enough to succeed such a challenge will allow Mishap Cat who accidentally swallowed the elephant's smile a long time ago to leave the cage for once and for all and be forgiven for the incident. When Scarlet Scales asked to make the elephant smile all cat (the first prize winner mind you, of what, that is top secret) and dogs and human confused gathered around to watch it happen. Scarlet let go the longest and convincing sigh and fell to the ground. An impressionable stunt. Enough to make the elephant fall back on his rump and make his mouth curl just so lightly it counted as a smile!
.
Mishap Cat, the wild rabbit and the monkeyly human left while they could. Scarlet exhausted of the fantastic feat rest in arms and fast asleep of an unwakeable sleep. She took in too much of the high altitude mountain air in her littlest lungs. Though now we are stuck with an added problem : to awaken Scarlet Scales is a challenge and task yet no one has figured out!

I'm still here but I've been sick with the flu. Today is the first day out of bed with overcooked spaghetti legs :) Gratitude is the word for my week to come.
Tomorrow I will finally give you the winner story!
Karin Eriksson and I played the whole weekend. She'd brought a load of ceramics. We chatted, drank wine and worked, what more can one ask for :) This part is planned to be ready before summer, at least. Look what we have done together before - Part 1 and part 2
