Football World Cup!
Thanks to Coussouma and her small TV, the guys can watch the games when Madam is taking over the living room and the big plasma screen.

For those of you who don't know her, Laure is a super cute blogger who looks like Anne Hathaway and she gets this comment very often. So I decided to play on that idea for her bday card :)
The cake ?

It's been a month maybe that I see this scccum poster in the metro , here univertisté de Montréal.
The other day I took some time to go shoot details with my phone.
j'adore!
The expression of the kids, the postures, the eyes, the hats, the little things happening...
They remind me of "Le Petit Nicolas " style by french cartoonist Sempé.
I will definitely blog about Sempé later.
( The illustration is by Boris and i can't find him on google. can someone help ? )

I was welcomed at Victoria Park Spa by a Zurbaines ( here: Carrie ), I wanted to try the Zumba Classes ...
Yes so that day i had my FLUO Lime Green socks on!
After that,I go up upstairs and do a small tour of the spa with Carrie. She shows me the gym, the massage rooms etc... really classy and zen spa! ( no way to ruin it all with lime green socks! )
Shortly after I start to mingle avec les blogueuses!
Leslie from Kreavie was satisfied with her make up, Kim Vallee was super happy with her manicure, Gabrielle had her usual rosy cheeks relaxed after her massage, Christophe Bergeron was looking for a new job ( He was Redacteur en chef at Voir for 8 years!!! ) and Line was tweeting....
The Food was AMAZING! it was from the gourmet health food café at the ground floor.
I managed to have the waiter throw food in my mouth while i was doing manicure!
These are the gifts from the event , the guimauve and confit de mangue were "terminated" within 3 days. ( Madame Kreavie tu es super ! )
alors Merci à Victoria Park, les super hôtes de la soirée!
Merci Les Zurbaines!

I just find it funny how old Ashrafiyeh ladies ( or verdun ones ) have fancy brunches and insist on going on a diet.
All my respect to all housekeepers in Lebanon who cope with that.
*Canderel is a brand of sweetener (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canderel) typically used to replace sugar with something less fattening (e.g. 0 calories)
