Hi, how was your weekend? I bet it was more active than ours. We spent most of it lounging, cooking, and enjoying our new Apple TV – it’s the best! Do any of you use it? We did run some errands and made exciting discoveries along the way that made this city feel more like home. The best find had to be an indie grocery store that carries everything we love and need. We were going bananas filling our cart with items we haven’t been able to find or physically carry back with us (we hired a taxi). Then there was the dry cleaner that does free pick-up and delivery, a mini-IKEA type shop with homewares galore, and a flower shop that sells *gasp* real flowers since eight out of ten here push plastic petals. It’s amazing the things that excite and count as great discoveries these days…
Did you make any fun or useful discoveries this weekend?
Oh, and if you’re like me and love you some natural suds, check out Kinder Soaps in Malaysia (first bar and I’m hooked) and my tried and true favorite, The Soap Kitchen in America – HEAVENLY!
The picture of the pool is making me very jealous! And as soon as I saw the photo with the vintage dishes I shouted (to myself!) ‘there they are’ – like a crazy lady. I wanted to buy them from you before you moved and just when I went to buy them my computer died on me so I never got the chance to get them. I still love them, but they look pretty & at home on your dresser! :)
ah now i feel bad! okay, maybe not sooo bad because i still want to keep them – forgive me!
Forgiven! haha! :)
These photos are gorgeous. It sounds like you had a great weekend! Mine was great, too. I discovered that I really enjoy camping (as long as I have my own personal bottle of bug spray). I have an AppleTV! I just got it last week and I am obsessed. It is one of the best things I’ve bought in a while.

Isn’t it amazing?! can’t wait for the computer mirroring to launch next month :)
And good for you and camping – as long as it’s itch free I’m right there with ya.
Firstly: extremely jealous of your poolside creative time.
Secondly: love your conversation with the florist. Can only imagine what was going through their head.
