It’s still the greeting period for the New Year and here I am again to celebrate this lunar new year of the rat! Bye bye pig, welcome rat! I don’t know if the meaning of the sign is positive or not but let’s say this 2020 year will be all positive anyway! I wish you … Read more
As I promised you, I am back after the holiday season to give you my “Personalized Advent Calendar” challenge feedbacks, which we agreed on doing last Christmas with Lionel, Noemie and Candice. If you follow me on Instagram, you already know that this idea came up after a 2018 Christmas without advent calendar (“Ooooh poor … Read more
Here we are in 2020! Time to wish you the happiest and warmest new year! Time flies… I would have never thought this May 25th 2007, when I wrote my welcoming words on my blog (on the canalblog platform) that almost 13 years later I would write my greetings… still on a blog! I won’t … Read more
