blue revival
June 16th, 2010 § 1
Last year I lost one of my three prized hydrangea bushes I planted four years ago, and the others seemed to mourn its loss by only producing a few flowers. This year, they’ve adopted a new attitude, and I can’t seem to find enough containers to fill. This coffee pot was one of my favorite centerpieces we used in the wedding – it sports a FireKing glass top and a black wooden handle. The cake stand and linens were engagement presents… aren’t they charming?

More of my favorite things from Crete…
…listening for hidden kri-kri along the trail into the gorge… discovering monasteries left behind, thousands of years old… devouring giant bowls of grecian yogurt covered in their local honey for breakfast… sun-kissed faces… spring colors popping along the winding roads… weaving through quilted patterns of vineyards and olive groves when we took the long way home from the palace of knossos… and the decorative whismy that greeted us each morning during our stay at Avli. I miss it so.

A few of my favorite things…
… finding sweet Avli amongst a maze of multiple century-old row houses after an adventurous boat ride… our first meal there of pork & plums in front of the cave-like wine cellar… exploring the neighboring castle on the windiest day… having our own car, we lovingly nicknamed “the shiat”… winding through the shops by day… discovering bakeries, gelato, gyros, and cretan olive oil…
{ honeymoon } a samaria gorge meeting

Ran into this guy along our intense hike down into the Samaria Gorge in Crete. He’s a working horse — the only way the folks who work on the many structures, footholds and bridges can get their tools and supplies up and down the 11 mile hike to the sea.
