Here is a recap of the last few weeks and
how I spent my holidays ..

and apparently enjoyed 


.. a shopping trip with the girls ..


.. there was a trip to the Lego Store after Christmas ..
- every boy's dream -


.. a trip to the Living Desert ..


.. giraffes are amazingly beautiful and also my favorite ..


.. a stroll through a cactus garden ..


.. espalliered meyer lemons ready to be squeezed 
so sweet and juicy - do I smell lemon tarts ?
