What is Earth Day?

Earth Day is a day for all of us to reflect upon ourselves and others in relation to our beautiful home. It was created in order to inspire awareness and appreciation for the Earth’s environment. Earth Day was founded by U.S. Senator Gaylord Nelson and is celebrated in spring in the Northern Hemisphere and autumn in the Southern Hemisphere. We would love for everybody to make everyday our official Earth Day.

Find additional information at the official Earth Day website at let us know what you did on our great blue earth day and share the love with your close ones!

So yes, go outdoors and enjoy our beautiful home and ofcourse, take care of it.

Changing over to new possibilities

March 27th, 2010

Beginning from March 20th, 2010, spring had officially opened its eyes for us. An inner feeling has brought me to think about the new possibilities that this new chi welcomes. Passing through the inner yard of my place, an innocent breath of white scented aroma gently takes its journey through the nose and into a “what a good morning” greeting before entering the car. This is a hint to what the new season is here for.

If you pay attention to the little details outside, you can see the blooming of new life. Until this time we have been comfortable in our “wintery rest” with our warm foods (especially shabu shabu), our comfortable home and frequent all-nighters; now it is the time for the sun to bring MORE of its own.

As a side thought – The first barbeque of the season included a bonus of mini cupcakes and hapiness brought from appreciation coming from friends.

Happy Spring 2010, welcoming all that is out there with open arms.
