COLDER DAYS LOADING

 

Colder days are loading...I hope. This November has been exceptionally dark due to the lack of snow. We had a beautiful couple of days when the ground was covered in white but now that is only a memory. I hope we get at least a white Christmas (fingers crossed) or this "winter" will be just a really long and dark autumn. 

Christmas is approaching and in a couple of days is the last month of the year. I've been a busy elf; almost all of the presents are already wrapped and waiting to be opened. I knew that December would be a busy month with one-night spa stays to Koli and Järvisydän and other Christmas traditions so stressing about presents is the last thing I want to add to that otherwise relaxing and fun month. Can't wait!

Have a wonderful weekend and let's hope that next month will bring lots of joy and SNOW!🩷

OCTOBER LIFE

Enjoying beautiful fall colours with my little teddy bear <3

Me and my Mum baked a LOT of cinnamon buns to store in a freezer. Nothing beats the taste or the smell of an oven-fresh cinnamon bun!

Autumnal tea date with a friend in my favourite city part of Joensuu (Taitokortteli).

We hosted a housewarming party for our family. On the menu were apple pie with vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce, and also pumpkin cupcakes made with my own recipe. 

The pieces of jewellery I'm currently obsessed with! Shades of red have been this falls THE thing. 

Tea catch-up date with a friend in Cafe Nikolai. 

Fall colours <3 / It has been a while since the last time I played a video game. A huge recommendation for that game! I loved the gameplay and that all of your choices mattered to the storyline. 

The bathroom desperately needed some extra storage. I got tired of looking at our products on the corner of the bathroom floor... :D

Dinner date outfit and trying out the new ramen place in Joensuu. Sadly I didn't find it any special, so probably won't be going there again.  

Slow morning at home with some banana pancakes, jam and cranberries.  

The bedroom looks so gorgeous in the morning light <3 / The last glimpse of autumn colours. The next morning all the leaves were gone. Winter is coming...
