These are my new favourite cereals from Eat Natural. They are obviously gluten free. Only bad thing is the 36.5 per 100g of sugars. I usually set the limit of sugar at 20g/100g. But…they are delicious and also contain raisins,  crisped rice, sunflower seeds, almonds, pumpkin seeds, linseeds & honey. Which all have loads of health benefits.

I also like the GF ‘cereal bars’ from Eat Natural. Perfect as a snack after the gym or when out and about since not all places sell GF snacks.

That’s what I should do coz seriously..this is one of my lotion baskets. Why do I need so many? It’s like Aiden says ‘Mum, you and your lotions’ we all have our own little weird things and I just love all the different scents and bottles.

It’s not wasting money just because I know tomorrow I’m gonna go through the airport shop and smell 300 new ones, it’s simply looking after my skin. Let’s pretend that’s what it is. Ok.

btw. Tomorrow I’m going to Rome for the tennis tournament. You know, just to make sure I miss all the celebs there too.

 Oh bless me. Rome last year.

“I will see it when I believe it. – Dr Wayne Dyer ”

One of many many quotes from the only idea I truly believe in apart from Jesus of course but it’s all related. Anyhow; The law of attraction simply means you attract what you think and feel. Be it good or bad. The only hitch to receive or experience what you think about and wish to attract is doubt. As soon as there’s doubt you will not see it. Again; good or bad.

Ok, so to what I was about to say. Celebrities. I just simply cannot see them. Or meet them. Or be in any kind of contact with them. Because I really really want to. So by using the law of attraction I could make it happen but I won’t because of simple doubt. It’s only a small amount of doubt but enough for me to constantly miss out on spotting them. Yes I know, it sounds like I’m birding. I almost made it into some kind of art not seeing them.

Last year Brangelina and the whole lot was shooting a movie a few streets away from our house. Did I see them? No.

Yesterday evening, me and J went for a short walk to drop Aiden at his friends house and J said Shall we continue to the promenade for a walk? We go there pretty much every single evening since it’s FIVE minutes away from our house. Last night I said No let’s continue home coz it’s too windy. 

Now this morning I just read that Tom Hanks, filming Captain Phillips here in Malta, went for the exact God damn walk we always take. Yesterday evening.

Whatever.

 Don’t wear it on a windy day. Don’t drop anything coz you won’t be able to bend and pick it up. Don’t sit with legs even slightly apart. Other than that it’s nice.

I think meat and all type of skewers are coming out of my ears soon. I had coffee with B today and we mentioned how many bbq’s we’d had already and it’s only May. And many more planned. For us, this weekend we have 3. Yes three. I dont mind it though hehe….actually love it. Food, wine and good company, the best there is!!!

It’s time to pick up my boo from school and the day goes on…Enjoy peeps.

Jonas actually managed to take some really nice pics recently. The one next to Aiden is our bedroom view. Then there’s walking in Ghargur, Azure window and Mdina.

Aiden – Mum it’s true I love you but I could never marry you..
Me – No you’re right..you couldnt. Mainly because I’m your mum!!!
Aiden – No…coz you’re so annoying in the morning
Me – Aaah thanks..

Nivea’s Angel Star collection smells of summer and I love how the scent really stays after a shower.  I haven’t tried the lotion yet but I feel tempted because of the shower gel. Definitely a good value for money product!

We had such a nice weekend, yesterday we took Aiden to his nannu in Zebbug because he was invited to a wedding in the evening, after that we drove to Mdina for cake and tea at Fontanella. I found this delicious gluten free almond & orange cake!! I almost felt guilty because it tasted like real cake…but it was obviously gf..no pain afterwards.

In the evening me & J had dinner in Valletta at a very nice place called Rampila.  It was a true food experience. A positive one! Perfect food and great service. Check it out if you’re around.

Today is my mums birthday and we had the pleasure of enjoying the finest Milk Festival in Ghargur where my brother and Shakyra lives hahahaa. Fake cows to milk and lots of yogis. Great place for a lactose intolerant like me ;o) It’s super hot so we didn’t stay too long and after we had lunch at a local restaurant. Shakyra had ordered a surprise cake for mum, so all in all a nice day!!

Sounds like all I do is eat haha. I do enjoy food and wine, nothing new but as long as it’s quality and gluten free I’m good.

Hope you all enjoyed your weekend. Malta is very hot  ))

The wake up call is doin’ guuuuuud !!

There’s a special glare in these pictures, makes me think of the late 50′s and 60′s….I love this vintage feel. The skirt has a type of aztec print which I hope to find a little more of this summer.

I’m totally hooked on my special (slightly time consuming) breakfast, it’s gluten free and lactose/dairy free. If you want to make sure you get loads of nutrients in the morning you can copy my morning b’fast bowl ;o)

If you wonder about the rosehip powder you can read about its health benefits here

Linseeds are a great natural fat burner and has loads of health/beauty benefits + 100% gluten free

The organic Snack mix is free from cholesterol and gluten, rich in soy protein, fibre, iron and magnesium

Next month we’re off to Rome again and as much as I am fully aware of all the beautiful designer shops I still prefer going in all the funny smelling vintage stores. Even if I don’t buy anything (because at the end of the day I don’t wear other peoples clothes) I love seeing all those old things. I would maybe buy a bag or interior though.

Cute.

Last night I went to Valletta with my mum and saw a great play. I was exhausted after Claras pool party on Saturday and waking up early for Aiden but this was still so much fun. Arsenic and old lace. If you have a chance to visit Manoel Theatre in Valletta, do it! It’s like walking in to another world, very beautiful.

My mum used to take me to the theatre alot when I was a kid. I remember always sitting there watching all the professional actors and maybe that’s what made me choose the drama school before I moved to my little island.  That’s also where it stopped…I miss it sometimes. Especially the make up/costume room behind the stage….ahhh ;o)

I love Taschen, you know we collect all sorts of coffee table books but mainly the ones with beautiful designs and escapes. So far we’ve reached the interiors and colors of Italy, Mediterranean hotel escapes, New York and Mexico and the latest one I opted for is Living in Morocco. Amazing, so gorgeous.

I never really understood why people pretend not to see the obvious. Lately, and well, as always I got into some trouble because I always speak my mind. I literally can’t stop talking until I made my point very clear. It might hurt people sometimes but it annoys me so much when there is a very obvious problem, say in someones relationship, job situation or appearance and they keep talking and acting around it. I don’t like to interfer with other peoples relationships for example as in judging (because you don’t decide who you love) but when there is an issue which can be seen as clear as you can tell a fat person from a slim person and nothing is being done about it, it makes me angry.  Not because I have anything to do with it but because they pretend it’s not there. It doesn’t show. Even saying things that makes it seem not visable to others. Very very strange I think. It’s like buying a black top and telling your friend how much you love white clothes. You know, it’s right there; I believe what you just bought is black though. Mmm, no I like white clothes (this is the part where you bang the head in the wall)

I like talking to (and about)  people who have a problem, they recognize it and they deal with it.  Or possibly accept it but at least make it clear that they are aware of it.

Same thing with appearance; if you have a weight problem, don’t talk about others being fat. As if it’s not obvious that you are as well.

Why can’t people just say; I suck at this, how do I learn? Or I am not happy in my relationship, what shall I do?

What do you think? Is it a fear of admitting your problem?

Yes. I’m a little obsessed with nailcare and nailpolish. These are special though, apart from the pretty bottles they are also ‘earth friendly’; Priti NYC are non-toxic—they have been made without toluene, dibutyl phthalate and formaldehyde, which are all carcinogens. So, these polishes are neither harmful to your health or the environment!
