It's just that the weekend always passes by so quickly.

Comino by night - a family tradition since forever. Same happened this year; we packed a towel and a long-sleeve shirt - just in case it feels cold on the boat on our way back - and off we went.

I'm not usually one to complain about Monday blues but, so far, this Monday has been anything but exciting. Could be because of the superb weekend I've just had, shadowing whatever will happen today.

As I told you in my last blog, l'm now into aerobics :D Those who know me well know I usually don't really care about anything which has to do with the term 'fit' and that driving (rather than walking) to the green grocer (which is just two minutes away from home) is the norm for me.  But following numerous attempts (in vain) to go the gym and some zumba classes, this new aerobics class got me curious and I

Have you heard?! I'm heading to my second aerobics session! ME!!

Can you believe that? Even my instructor was impressed when I told her I 'properly' exercised last during my years at secondary school! Irresponsible of me I know. But at least I'm trying here.  I just want to be more fit,

I don't have anything but words of praise for Solaris in Sliema. There isn't even the need to go into the details of what I needed following my purchase there, because their outstanding customer service has made me one super-pleased client.

Some 12 years ago, as I stood backstage during one of the very first reherseals of our soiree, I heard him sing for the first time. It was the 'Elephant Love Medley' if I'm not mistaken, and the two people declaring their love on stage were playing the parts of Satine and Christian, from Moulin Rouge. I heard him sing to her, and I was shivering with emotion. "This guy

Last week, just as I was letting myself into the last shop for the day, I met two friends whom I had not seen for quite a long time. After the usual greetings and hello's, my friend's boyfriend was quick to suggest that "it's time to change the font on that blog of yours" and "I've been meaning to tell you to do something about the website's font for quite some time

Yesterday I was watching some vlogs on YouTube and came across this "20 random things about me", and I thought to myself 'why not try come up with something similar?!'  10 minutes later the pages of my notebook looked as if they were returning from some battle with all the writing and scribbles...

Ok, so I'm probably one of the very last to get instaweather on my phone. But as the saying goes - BETTER late than never ;)

Last week I had the luxury to take a couple of hours off work and go to the beach early in the afternoon. I was wearing my recently-purchased swimsuit so I was more cheerful than usual (girls will understand this, boys: read on), and despite it being very hot (as expected at 1pm in June in Malta!) there was still a light breeze which made things perfect (you see, summer heat stresses

Yesterday I managed to surprise daddy. In a good way that is :)

One of our local papers asked readers to nominate their fathers, stepfathers or grandfathers as the best dad ever on father's day. Whilst believing that most of the fathers are all in fact their childrens' hero, there was no doubt I was going to submit my nomination - whatever involves writing and my 'obsession' with my

I'm exhausted. And a tad down. So I decide I'm going to indulge myself in a tube of ice-cream and let some friends' facebook statuses/quotes/jokes amuse me.

I've already mentioned my going to Florence and what a dream come trueit has been. And the beauty and buzz in Piazza Santo Spirito! And the happy hour ;)
