Not being believers, we do not do the Nativity… But, we have some Lego! This year, Santa comeback to feast on the buffet. The elves’s toys workshop found a very nice place. And we had the joy of building the Winter Toy store and the Christmas decor. And here we …
…This is the time of cinnamon stars. And of the croquettes with hazelnuts, of the pepper walnuts, and of the half-moon shaped like stars and little hearts, and of the orange galettes. Sweetness before Christmas, created with love by listening “a Charlie Brown Christmas” by Vince Guaraldi Trio. There are …
Dear All, To remember our handyman wedding, we wanted to share with you these days small moments that occupied us for… a year (yes, indeed). Xim’s fad was the photobooth; mine was the tea bar. Why a tea bar? Because we got married in early October and we had no …
For us, Santa Claus arrived this morning (too early) disguised as postman. Now is the time for Christmas special Lego boxes! And we have to wait one month before getting them all… And we also need to sort out our Lego used for the marriage to rebuild Santa’s home and …

I just heard the first cry of cicadas. Yes, cry, because what can be a taste of exoticism and vacation for someone, well it could a deafening racket for three months, for someone else. I still prefer the cicadas sounds at factories or boulevards ones, obviously. All this literature to …
This time, I tried to follow a pattern found on the Internet. I followed a model that also allows me to realize that I forgot to make the tail on the first. The ears also have more depth and the arms are a bit more worked than on my first …
It’s babies time. Bellies begin to swell foreshadowing the arrival of pretty girls and pretty boys. In order of arrival (it is almost trifecta), Arthur was entitled to his garland of owls, which I did not presented before, wanting to keep the surprise for his mother. Then comes Laura, our …
