The most beautiful bibles - my new favorite book

As you may know (or just found out) I am a huge fan of medieval art - old medieval manuscripts in particular. Last week I bought a book so stunning that I couldn't take my eyes off it for a very long time. It's called "The most beautiful bibles" - a collection of rare and significant manuscripts reproduced with the impeccable quality. I absolutely love it! It's full of mystical monsters, saints, beautiful ladies (even naked ones!) and scenes of cruel torture. Just check these illustrations out!

Spring is here!

After reading my friend's (Sylwka) blog about natural and eco-friendly living, I decided to start my own garden full of great herbs. For starters, I have basil, lavender, thyme, parsley, hives and oregano. So far only basil and hives showed up - can't wait to see the lavender!

I also planted some lovely flowers, a mix of different kinds - they should have flowers in 6 months.I hope my cat won't eat them until then :)

I'm one small step from...

..having 40 sales! What a great news - especially today which seems to be one of my worst days in weeks - first I woke up and was sure that it was Saturday, then when I realized it's !@$%^@^$ Friday, I had nothing to wear (my closet is full of clothes.....). In the office I had lot of boring Word+Excel work and in the middle of the day I discovered that my bag is full of chocolate milk...

A lovely beginning of a weekend, isn't it? :)

Such a tragedy...

Today is one of the worst days in Polish history since World War II. We woke up to discover that our President, the First Lady and 87 senior Polish officials died in a plane crash in Russia. They were on their way to take part in commemorations to mark the 70th anniversary of a massacre of over 20 thousands of Polish officers by the Soviet Union.

First I couldn't believe when my mom called me to tell me what's happened. I was downtown shopping and came back home in a huge shock. I turned on polish radio hoping that it's not true, that someone survived that fatal crash but no... everyone died.

I didn't like Mr. Kaczynski as a politician, he was a very controversial figure on Polish political scene but never the less it's a big loss for Poland and I even don't try to imagine what a hell it is for their families. We might like them or not but we have to remember that they were human beings, someone's fathers, sons, mothers, daughters, friends...

My deepest condolences to all the members of their families. Poland won't be the same place anymore.

What I was doing in Paphos before Easter - 110 BOC Exhibition

A couple of weeks ago I spent some time in Paphos working very hard (just imagine waking up at 6 if you are used to waking at 9...). The exhibition's opening was a huge success, lot of people came to see it and they really liked what we did. Later this month the exhibition is going to be moved to Limassol.

 Here are the results!

Julius The Cat

Here's my cute "little" cat sleeping on the back of my chair.
He was so bored today, the house is clean (it looked like after a bomb attack yesterday) so he had nothing new to play with.
