Day 20 - a hobby of yours

Again, I have a few, and they are interchangeable for me according to season or mood.
I love to read, and especially like to visit old libraries. The smell of old books makes me imagine the world about to delve into when I open the book I chose.
I love photography. I love capturing life at it's funniest, best, silliest moments.
I love to do arts and crafts. Anything really, and I mostly enjoy doing it with other people.

Day 18 - Our wedding

Our wedding was beautiful, and if I was the kind of person that actually had fantasies about that day - I would say it went precisely as I would fantasize.
We were married at Atlantis on Paradise Island in the Bahamas.
Our destination wedding let us really enjoy our day, take time to be with our guests, and take it all in.
What I remember most about that day is all the moments I got to stop and actually look around.
Realizing the magic of our wedding day, on our actual wedding day is a special experience I wish every couple to have.

Mom & dad walking me down the 'aisle'. It was such a special moment.

I remember these moments as clearly as if it was yesterday.

Yup, he grabbed my butt :)

I remember just resting my head on him. No direction, just comfort.

Our Cake

Our beautiful reception venue

I loved that we were always surrounded by friends & family.

Day 17 - an art piece

I love art in many forms, so I find it hard to choose one piece.
So instead, I will use this theme to show one artist we all miss in the fashion world.
Alexander Mcqueen.
What a loss we have all suffered in losing such a dreamer.

From the final collection

The art in his fashion is breathtaking and I worry we will never see such genius again.

Day 12 - something you are OCD about

hmm...
I really am not much of an OCD kind of person - since I need control over EVERYTHING - there's no specific thing that I can really say I am compulsive about..
But if you ask my husband, I am pretty sure his answers will be that my OCD is how to fold towels..
It's strange I know, but that's the only thing I can think of :p

Day 10 - a photo taken over 10 years ago of you

Ok, so maybe I am a little behind - but here I am catching up :)

Me (@ the head of the table), My Cousin Liliya, Koby,
Jennifer, and her Ex (Jimmy I think?). 

This image is nostalgia at its best.
We went to Richtree (Marche's at the time) and had deserts, and drinks.
I remember it was fun, and I felt blessed.

Day 9 - a photo you took

Back on track :)
Almost all the photos I post on this blog are mine, but here's a more recent one.
I went apple picking with my friends, and their kids.
In the first photo I posed them.
The second photo...well...lets just say we encouraged them and they played along.

Day 8 - a photo that makes you angry/sad

Maybe a few days after..but here it is..
Gilad Shalit is an Israeli soldier (Born in 1986) who was abducted on 25 June 2006 by Hamas in a cross-border raid.

in-front of the Prime Minister's home.
Red Hebrew Caption reads: Where are you child?

An image from the latest Video released by Gliad's captors

Day 5 - your favorite quote

I have 2 favorites:


1. I was born with an enormous need for affection and a terrible need to give it. 



2. A woman's dress should be like a barbed wire fence, serving its purpose without obstructing the view.

Day 4 - your favorite book

Who came up with these questions??
If you remember my post A Saturday Surprise, you'll recall this photo.
behind me there, that's my library.
Those are all my favorite books, that I read fell in love with and decided to buy.

I also go to the library at least once every other week and return with at least 2 books - how could I choose a favorite?
Hhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm....
alright, let's try this out..
I love love love Anne Rice books - back when vampires were not yet sparkly and could walk in the sun (See twilight), and before she went all Christian and stopped writing about anyone but Jesus (Her books are on the bottom right near my hip there).
For light reading I loved the Shopaholic series (it's on the top shelf there in the middle).
I also love reading true crime books, as well as history and biographical novels.
Bronte Sisters are a classic to me, and I believe I read everything by them.
And finally, in Hebrew I love authors like Irit Linur(עירית לינור), and Oren Ram (רם אורן).
