An October weekend

.....and this is how fall looks like to me.
yellow and red leaves that fall down from trees, rain, and dark, and mushrooms, a blanket and a movie, some wool sweater, and some hot chocolate, pumpkins, a baking cake in the oven.... (she gave me the idea of the list of what I like of autumn....)
It's not a bad vision, to be honest.


Monday is already here, and this weekend is flown away:
On Saturday I baked some goooood little cakes-that-look-like-muffin-but-they-aren't! (I'm going to share the recipe with you veeery soon, because they are delicious!), then I went to a surprise party for the husband of one of my best friend. All Saturday I was without my boyfriend because he was ill...

On Saturday I took a ride with my bike around Padua, and....how I love my city!!!

On the afternoon I finally met my Mr, and because he was ill...we finished to watch How I met your mother 8, so... where can we buy the last season?
Personally I'm not in love with these last seasons, but you know, we want to know how everything ends!!!

How was your weekend?
Hope you had a good Monday! ;)

Splendor in the Grass

I'm listening to Pink Martini, Hang on little tomato, I discovered this song 10 minutes ago, and this is the 3rd time I'm listening to it....
Outside it's pouring, it's cold, and it looks like an October Saturday morning, not an August morning.
So, this is the perfect time for a blog post!
Yesterday, when the weather looked like an August day, my sister and her husband, and Mr and I hiked out in Colli Euganei, in Valsanzibio
I took with me my little camera, but there were something that didn't work with colours...I took anyway some photos (I have to understand what's happened to her!), and here's our hike!

...doesn't he look like Peter Pan?

Botanical Garden in Padua

Goood morning!!!
Happy Monday, happy June, happy everything!!!
So, summer is arrived, the sun shines, it's hooooot, and for now, I LOOOOVE this!
Two weeks ago, Mr and I visited the "Botanical Garden of Padua", and, well, it was wonderful!!! there were so many plants, flowers, trees...

It was a very relaxing Sunday!
Here's (a loooot of)  photos I took that day!

La Specola

I seriously think that I have to create my own personal work.
My teacher-photographer is not calling for my help in this last week. This morning I went to an event where firms meet graduated: well, the most part of the firms present at this event, weren't looking for people to hire. So, why were them there?
I'm a bit down, I'm tired of this situation....so I took my camera, and I went around the city....

Today I'm gonna show you "La Specola", a building that is very important for my love story with my Mr.
Coming back in 2008, I started date with my Mr in February. We were attending the same University, so we spent our time in classrooms "following" maths classes....of course, University started to look in a very lovely way, to us.
Every evening, Mr took the train to come back home, and I went with him to the station. That priceless time!
Once, he told me:"What about summer holiday?"
Me: "I would like to visit Greece"
Him: "Ok, we will visit Greece"
I went home and I was too happy, HE WAS PLANNING A SUMMER HOLIDAY WITH ME. He was serious about this story.
Then, (I think on a Friday night) I brought my Mr to see "La Specola" that is the astronomical observatory for the University of Padua.
Stars have always fascinated me, they are far, they are millions, and they are always there.
Nothing special happened that time, Mr enjoyed the building, and we came back home.
About a year later....

I love Vespa!
