{The Year 2016 Is Ending...The Resilientista Planner}

It is a sunny day today but rather cool.
My final days for 2016 are not as planned, fighting a bronchitis.
But still, it is a time for reflecting 
Great ingredients for happy days...
Sunshine
Fountain pen
The Resilientista Planner by friend Celia, just click the link!
Tiny Baccarat vase with fragrant Cashmere Bouquet (Clerodendrum philippinum) from Logee's, just click on picture below this vase. 
And COFFEE...
Well, I certainly had all the right ingredients and almost forgot to make this photo... having my coffee almost finished!
Never mind; not everything can be perfect all the time...

Wishing you a happy ending of 2016 and a very Happy New Year 2017!

Thanks for your visit.

  16. Olá querida,
    desejo um feliz 2017 e espero que já estejas bem da bronquite. Aqui tomamos muito chá de limão e mel ajuda melhorar.
    Fiquei feliz que seu marido toca acordeon. Aqui em nossa família meus dois irmãos mais velho e minha mãe tocam. A casa que tem um instrumentista é mais alegre.
    Bjos e feliz novo ano.
