Breakfast room: Hydrangeas and more.

 Our last year's planted hydrangea has yet to blossom ...but in our local farmer's market flower shop you can buy anything and arrange your own choice of flowers and so I did hydrangea with carnation and rose and more...darring me?

It has been lovely for our breakfast room:






Also loving the breakfast rooms that Tina has posted at the Enchanted Home.

In the end, I also managed to re-do our family living room from having the oversized giant couch there to elegant blend of seating options (one of them being a fabulous bergere chair by the fireplace) in gray colour scheme: 



Still in search for the perfect painting for above the couch wall...must be oversized and feature the Rockies in gray, blue-green and some pink hues ...simple really (smiles). 
No, I have not found anything yet at all!



Before my Dad left, I have been very sad and still am missing him dearly, we all had a lovely hike in Kananaskis country and a goodbye "father's day" lunch which was very special.
Plus I got to use my new "chateau Jemniste" table setting with new Czech porcelain on it...fun. 











I also love how the Chateau Jemniste where we had our wedding presented hydrangeas for someone's wedding ... marvelous! 




Saying Goodbye WAS HARDer than one can imagine.....

We miss our grandpa!

Wool in Summer: Merino, have you tried?


Me, Radovan, my dad


Hello! 
If summer looks like this...smiles...snow and ice in the mountais at Lake Louise, Rocky Mountains, Canada, you surely need Merino Wool layers. 



Have I mentioned that this product never washes out of shape, never lost it's colour, looks like new for over 4 years now (my long sleeve skiing t-shirt)?! 
And NO, Icebreaker doesn't pay me for promoting them...


Otherwise, finding out that Icebreaker now has summer dresses and T-shirts available just made my summer! It is a beautiful material that doesn't itch even the most sensitive skin, it feels soft and amazing on, and it prevents any "sweat odor" so I love to dress my hubby in it...

Obvious as it may be, I first dressed myself and would greatly recommend you these lovely looks:


SHOP HERE: STRIPED TOP













Hope that you enjoy this superior material as much as I do, my son does, my dad does now too and of course the person who pointed it out to me, my husband who loves the men's line!

Sailing a cat last week in British Columbia was also amazing with merino Wool Clothing.





With or without merino, I hope you are having fun like us!


Have a wonderful start of summer.

XO, Z
