Feeling that I have not much to say, I've been absent from blogging. The new year has had mostly boring work for me, be it helping my parents with olive picking or going back to school and the work load entailed to it. Nothing exciting so far. Nothing at all.
To make matters worse, this week it's my birthday and I can't seem to find any excitement to that,either...It will be on a weekday, I will spend it alone- just hoping to some phone calls. Hopefully, my best friends who all live in far away cities will gather to my house on the weekend to spend some time together.This will be nice...
I haven't put the Christmas tree down (I know!) as I was bored even with the thought of it! Last year I kept it until my birthday, so I thought, why not make it a custom! Before you comment, let me tell you that I decorated the latest of all people on earth, the 23rd of December! So, I guess, I deserve enjoying it a bit more! So, it will be the second Christmas-themed birthday...
To sweeten this down feeling I've been having (I blame the ageing), I decided to make a cake for the day. Who cares that I'll eat it all by myself? So, sachertorte it is! Another custom of mine, since it's the 3rd time I'm making it for my birthday. Now I need to think of a more proper birthday cake for the weekend, with candles and all (not a chance to forget about my age!). Any suggestions?
My friend M, lights the candles on my last year's birthday
PS. This must be my worst posting ever, but I don't really care...I'm ageing one more year...Φτου! (Damn!)
Olive picking sounds very romantic to me you should do a post on it. Sounds like your a bit down, I hope you end up having a really happy birthday, sending hugs your way. Greenthumb.

I want a piece from your cake. hi, hi, hi)
Awww big love to you and I know how you feel. Hope that you had a lovely birthday in the end xxx
ReplyDeleteAh, another January birthday person. I have had many of my January birthdays ruined by snow here in the Pacific NW (I am friend of Michelle from Boulderneigh) and I used to leave my Christmas tree up until my birthday but it's been years since I had a tree now - a combination of no room and nosy kitties, I guess -
ReplyDeleteI loved seeing your pictures of the olives and hope to have time to spend some more looking through your blog - sweet memories of a trip to Greece when I was in college oh so many years ago...
Take care! Love your sweet little earbud cases! T.
