Busy busy busy

Wow ... such a very very busy weekend ! I have to admit most of this busy-ness it's my own fault, I have so many projects going on and saturday I decided also to bake some goodies for the following days. And ... And James has started to sleep in his own bed ! I can't believe it. We have been co-sleeping since day one and now it feels so strange ... yesterday he has been in his bed until 1:00am who knows how tonight will be ...
And next friday my youngest doughter ( 11 yo ) will go to her first live concert with dad ! Nightwish are playing in Helsinki and she has loved the group since she was six or seven ... time runs away so fast ... I want to finish my huge amount of projects and then I want to start prioritizing better what I decide to do in my life. I want to enjoy my little people more. And here few pics from the weekend ....

Restaurant day

Last sunday we joined in once again in the international Restaurant Day . For those who are not aware of this event, 4 times a year it's possible to open a pop-up restaurant or cafeteria or .... the limit is the sky :)
We joined the first time last november and it was an exciting experience, my children loved to help, loved all the excitement, all the people coming to taste the food we had prepared. It was such a good experience that it was obvious for all of us that the one in november would have been just the first of many more restaurant days. So last week was very busy, getting the kitchen ready to become a restaurant for one day and planning, buying and cooking all the food. When sunday arrived, of course we experienced the usual panic, we opened at 11:00 am and after half an hour we didn't have any custumer ... but from around 12:00-12:30 people started arriving with a peak beetween 15:00 and 17:00 when we had always two or more people waiting because we had run out of chairs and places at the table. At 17:30, when we served the last meals basically all the food was finished, we only had few leftovers. It has been incredible, so many lovely people, most of them trying their best to use italian language ... what a great experience !!!!! But here a few pictures...

See you at the next restaurant day !!!!
