Lime And Turquoise

(... and a little bit of candy pink!)

I really lost all my patience and I wanna go to the seaside NOW! Why do I have to suffer for two more hot weeks, why? Why do I keep seeing relaxing pics from the Mediterranean everywhere I look, especially on the blogs of my new virtual friends from Spain, Greece and Italy? Haven't they got a heart?! Don't they know that an innocent Romanian girl tries to relax browsing through their marine pics, but instead she just chokes in agony? I will get to the sea and I will swim for three days. Until my legs get cramps and my hands can't move anymore against the deep blue water. At night, lying in bed, I will close my eyes and feel the circular motion of  the waves rocking my body over and over.

In order to calm myself down, I felt inspired to play with sea colors: lime and turquoise. My starting point was this ancient polka-dot box, where I keep my warranty papers from all the house appliances (gotta keep things organised around the house!). My star, as always, is the lovely blue pitcher with its plump belly. The tall turquoise container lives in my kitchen, as tortellini storage. The "tea" mug comes from a previous work place, and the lime one .... let's just say that I borrowed it.

What about that pink azalea topiary? Hmm.... she just happened to be in the right room, at the right time. She spreads her beauty like a satin queen, gracing the light with a touch of her soft pink petals. Azaleas are not supposed to last this long, they usually fade away during the last months of Spring. Anyway, I feel calmer now. Two more weeks. I can make it :)
