Almost Fall ... (2010)

Yesterday, I had that first feeling Fall is just around the corner ...

Windy day, sun and rain every 5 minutes - falling leaves and the first fruits of the chest-nut tree on the ground. Fresh enough to bare a scarf - umbrella in my hand and the urge for a warm coffee with something extra. I discovered peppercino, cappu with ground pepper in it ! Delicious !

Did paint the kids' room in another colour and just as their newly painted room, school will begin tomorrow !

Early mornings, rush hour and daily routines make us forget this Summer and the amazing holiday feeling I had for the longest time.

Before we know it, we must lit our fireplace, prepare for an Octobre trip to Paris and Christmas preparations will let us know the New Year will be here soon !

Aaaah, Fall can be cold but always has it's charm too.

Love at the Ponte Vecchio (Italy, Firenze)

I did some little extra to spice up my holiday (being a neverending creative soul) ..

I made these little white sachets with a message written in Italian to convince people to write their biggest lovestory to this email address : piugrandestoriadamore@gmail.com

I will wait about 1 year to read all messages send to me and then choose the best story ever !

I took advantage of hanging them in the best place some1 could ever imagine ; near that famous bridge Ponte Vecchio, covered with jewelry stores (for lovers who decide to get hitched or engaged ... or just as a making up present :^)

Walking towards the Ponte, you'll notice these locks hanging on a chain ; they are hung there by lovers who want to point out their commitment to each other or just for good luck !

Perfect spot !

Now, not only Italians or tourists can write their story, even you, yeah YOU !

If you have this great lovestory, WRITE ! It can be anonymous and people who send their story publicly, are guaranteed to privacy !

Wouldn't this make a great little book ? All these wonderful, funny or emotional tales ...

all together in 1 book ?

Please, be nice and forward this blogpost to your facebook friends all over the world !

In 1 year time, we'll bring out the best story about love ...
