russian cacao and bo’s lost friend

_MG_6732  IMG_2922 IMG_2931

sometimes you judge the book by it’s cover and you buy cacao for the pretty, russian packaging.

sometimes you make an early cup of tea and it becomes a fuzzy image for the collection.

some days you find an abandoned doll which made me think of bo, or what do you say lilli, perhaps a lost friend of the happy bunch? with lipstick and all.

and some days is the day which starts the week again and i wonder how come time flies so fast? here we go again, dive in and swim along.

    Oh, it's so easy judging from the cover; even people, I suppose.

    Poor, little thing, just lying there, all glamourous and ready to be kissed. With a little practise, I'm sure she would become an excellent assistant to someone. If her mother doesn't turn up, you could maybe take her in. Before the rain comes.

    Made me think of all those images from Chernobyl, after the disaster. The left behind dolls ever seemed to make such a vast impression... lost childhood, maybe. Hm.

    Visst bedömer man från utsidan. Tyvärr. Något jag ska tänka på. Man kan alltid bli en bättre människa.

    Jag dyker utan simpuffar den här veckan. Följer strömmen och hoppas på att nå land inom fem dagar. Och ärligt talat väljer jag alltid te efter förpackningen, jag tror inte ens att jag är förmögen att bättra mig på den punkten.

    this sounds very familiar..i have bought even vinyls just for the cover;)

    and i have drank coffee in russia which looked and tasted like tea, and had russian tea in Helsinki which was much way stronger than the coffee. just came in to my mind from the russian cacao..

    and i also have the feeling time flies a bit too fast at the moment..

    Så enkelt att köpa te efter förpackningen...men jag brukar lukta också! Luktar nästan på allt jag vill köpa, även kläder. Är det skumt?? Men choklad kan ha vilket omslag som helst, jag köper ändå! Och det luktar ju så gott!

    maria, i am curious of what you thought!

    lilli, i think she is an assistant. and whoever she is assisting forgot her there. it happens...and hopefully she will find her before the rain, but even more i hope there will be rain. maybe even she won't mind!
    oh, sounds very intense. chernobyl, i remember that from being a child myself.

    miss ud, bra är det, att vi kan bli bättre. sakta men säkert.

    elisabeth, förpackning och doft. böcker, tja det är nästan omöjligt för min del att INTE dömma efter utsidan eller snarare bli inspirerad (eller inte). simma lungt. simma på. kram

    jasmin, yep she has. if she only knew...

    outi, do you have a vinyl player?
    i remember it was hard to find tasty coffee in russia. but in many places once you become a coffee perfectionist...

    annika, det gör jag med! ibland tittar folk lite konstigt på mig när jag nosar på plastburkar, tidningar och strumpor. har ett väldigt känsligt doftsinne. säger man så?

    Fina härliga ord... tänkvärda! Och så sant med veckan som hela tiden kommer igen - bara att dyka i. Fast jag som väntar är glad att tiden ändå går så fort! Hade också köpt den fina kakaon efter förpackningen *****
