  1. I totally think you'll have to go by "Glacier des Alpes" now that it's good weather!! Once a week sounds quite reasonable to me ;)

  2. I like your balcony garden and the photo of Anna and I, even though we look a bit fuzzy and gray! Oh wait, I am gray!

  3. Strawberries. Ah! (Still can't get enough of 'em...I have issues, clearly).

  4. Mmm, those strawberries look good! And do I recognize that plate? It's fantastic...

    We've been gardening too. Now if only it would warm up and start everything sprouting! I can't wait for all the fresh veggies this summer.

    I have been enjoying my commemorative Royal Wedding mags as well. It's the little things that make me happy. Like a prince and princess riding in a carriage through the streets of London!

    We should skype soon, too.
