eleventh

today was hubby & I's 11th anniversary :)
like we like it , we celebrated it in a very simple way, with the boys, at home, nothing fancy, but with love. We do believe that love & material attentions must be spread all life long, and not only for special occasions. We didn't exchange any gift. Our mutual gift is understanding, care, and of course love.

let me show you now the collection I built with the treasures we gathered on Saturday ...

so we dyed with foeniculum vulgare this weekend. It's very simply wild fennel, and grows abondantly over here. The result has been more than interesting, and I have already blogged about it here, this morning.

I hope this week has started OK for you all. Two last days of vacations, and on Thursday the boys will go back to school. Mixed feelings for me, I must say. This summer has flown by in a wink of an eye, it's been happy busy in many ways. A new rhythm is coming, for sure. Good luck & best of strength to the ones of you who will have a (very) busy week this week !
