New Beginnings.

All of last week, I was in Berlin for work and had the chance to visit some really great stores (more on that at a later date).  The weather was crisp and cold but I still got a tiny feel of spring in the gorgeous garden of the Literaturhaus near Kurfürstendamm.
I also got to spend time with a dear friend who is  going through a transitory period in her life. So, after the endless cups tea had been drunk and the kuchen (cake) eaten, we started of on the next step of her journey..the decoration of her amazing new flat.  The flat is on the top floor of a beautifully restored old German building with all its charm and authenticity. Beautiful high ceilings and a balcony overlooking a small, exquisitely tended garden....swoon worthy! I promised not to show any pictures of her apartment but what I really want to share here is the feeling of starting something anew..or going in a different direction. Its excitement, nervousness with a bit of fear mixed in. That's how I feel right now about this blog because although I've been so distracted with work and life, I really think that fear has kept me away from this blog. Well, no more.  Its time to move right on !
