structure

Tuesday, January 11th, 2011

i’m not (at all) too good with routines but i still have some romantic idea about organizing. i think i got it from a story about some architect commissioned to make a sketch and his deadline was more than a year away. so every day he would sit at his desk at 9 pm, put on this one song (alway the same) and then work for exactly an hour. the end result was of course great, as always in stories.

i don’t know why i find it so inspiring but i think it has to do with some kind of fascination of the perservation and commitment that it takes to be so structured. and i always want what i haven’t got, don’t we all?

my most inspiring time of the day is mornings, and preferably to early when the coffee is necessary and it’s so quiet and still one would think i live alone in some forest. i could look at anything and enjoy it so whatever site happens to appear on my browser is the best in the world. except newssites, they always get me down.

i always post photos from other homes but never from my own. and so i made one successful cake which led from one thing to another: iphone photo shoot.

first photo: shelves with some inspiring things like my favorite illustration (by my mother), an embroidered vanity case, bookcovers i like and some sweet boxes.
the second photo: the kitchen shelf with some lemon cakes i made today and some pots.
third photo: the “grandma cake” from sju sorters kakor.
