New lace dress...

I am such a lousy blogger - I know. I keep wanting to post more, but my inspiration seems to be going through a downfall at the moment and that is really bothering me. I also keep thinking "Oh, this would be nice to post about!", but, then it doesn't seem like worth posting about a little while later. After re-reading these couple of sentences, I realized I've kind of made this sound like a blog depression (is that even possible?). A bit silly maybe, but I suppose what I wanted to put into words is; is there anything you would like to see on my blog, anything that you miss seeing here, or, in other words, do you have any ideas of what I could post about?

Over to something else. Yesterday I went to the Topshop sale and I got this pretty little dress that I was eyeing on the Topshop website a few months ago, and that I've been trying to get on ebay (but it's always been selling for too much), so I was really happy to get it for half price yesterday. The downside, however, is that it has a small foundation (I'm guessing) stain at the neckline and the shop assistant refused to give me a discount because of that (quite ridiculous since in Europe I'd get it in a second). I really hope it'll come off. I love the fact that it has long sleeves as well as being very light weight so that I can protect myself a little from the sun in it.

Visiting a farm

This afternoon I went to a little near-by farm together with my little nephew and sister in law. We had a really nice time together patting animals and taking pictures of them. However, the best thing about it was being able to cuddle with a couple of baby rabbits that were so cute that I just wanted to put them in my hand bag and take them home with me. I cannot get past just how adorable they were, and how calm they were lying in my hand.

Never let me go

I am beyond excited for this movie and have been watching the trailer about a dozen times over the last few days. I'm a sucker for period dramas (although this is actually not really one with the movie being dystopian), but what makes this movie different is that it's also a sci-fi movie. I've been reading the plot summary of the book (which I now also want to read!) the movie is an adaption of, and found out that it's set in a boarding school where the children are clones who are grown in order to provide organs of transplants with the final donation being fatal. It sounds so creepy, yet the movie looks beautiful and I can't wait to see Carey Mulligan again since I loved her in An Education.

Yarkon Park

On Tuesday evening, my boyfriend and I went to Yarkon Park, which is a massive park in Tel Aviv. We'd planned on going there for quite some time, but due to my boyfriend being extremely busy with his final project in architecture it was always canceled. I had been to the edges of this park before, but not ventured deep into it like this time. Being there was absolutely wonderful with the enormous green lawns, trees growing sideways so that one can easily sit in them, and a lovely lake with boats and ducks. Somehow, it reminded me of being in a completely different country. We both agreed that we need to go back there again, especially to rent a boat and sail in the lake which is in the park, or to just have a little picnic there - something this park is surely perfect for.

Staying in

Hello to all of you - I hope you've had a good weekend! I've been, for the most part, staying indoor in order to avoid the sun (my arms - especially my lower arms - have gotten way too tan without my blessing!) and the heat (It was 35 C here on Friday!), trying to cook recipes I hadn't tried so far (like baked eggplant in tomato sauce) and reading Haruki Murakami's "Kafka on the Shore" and Jonathan Safran Foer's "Eating Animals". A nice, relaxing weekend, one of the best ways to spend it, in my opinion.
