Day of Delirium #367 - Polish Gifts

Before our trip to Poland, I looked up if there was anything special I should seek out while I was there to bring home as souveniers.

I found the list of 10 things to get in Poland and since Christmas is next week, this seems an appropriate post.

I did pretty good with the list and I share with you some photos of the list items and other things I found.

 Polish Pottery - I knew I wanted a piece of pottery but nothing big.
So this spoon rest was perfect. Small and I get to see it every day on my oven.
I just love the colors and painting.

Pins are my down fall as far as souveniers, and Poland almost let me down as apparently pins are not as big in Poland as one would hope. But I found this one and I am grateful.

I was determined to get a small Polish flag. I never expected it to be so hard to find but it was. This one was found at the gift shop in the Krakow airport as we were leaving. Phew 

My usual purchase on vacation - although I don’t drink Starbucks or coffee at all, I just love their mugs. These are small ones but I love that it is Poland and my favorite town we visited.

I always try to get a horse related item also on my vacations. This one was handmade in Krakow and has the city scape on it. Basically a soft ornament but I thought it was just perfect.

Amber is the most popular item in Poland and I could not pass up this Polish Eagle set in amber.
I did get another item of amber but it will be a Christmas gift to me from my Mom, so we will have to wait until after the holidays for me to share it with you here.

Day of Delirium #366 - Horoscope 11/21/18

Just the opening line is a good one 😉 but overall this is a great horoscope.

Wednesday, November 21, 2018 - The magic of twilight shimmers and sparkles all day long, reflecting the aura of immense possibility that usually comes with dawn. You may even feel as if you can do anything you want today. The trick is to know what to focus on. Add a little enchantment to your commute and routine interactions. Take the more scenic route to work. Surprise a stranger by paying for their coffee or make a point to offer a compliment to a colleague. Create time for romance in your private life, even if it’s only to write a love note of appreciation to your partner-in-crime or a flirty wink to an online crush. Spontaneous acts of kindness reveal the true nature of your heart.


Because Nice Matters.

Day of Delirium #364 - day 2 of vacation

More Relaxation was in order. There were three naps, reading, a treadmill (ok not as relaxing but I was walking in New Zealand, so that was cool), swimming, the whirlpool and lunch out. The rain was still around but I really wanted to try a local restaurant so I danced with the raindrops. Then I ended the day checking out the convention my hubby is attending and it was all right up my alley ... Because Nice Matters.

Here are pictures from my day. 

Day of Delirium #363 - first day of vacation

So while my hubby is at a convention in Toronto, I get to have a real vacation. I have no plans set at all except sleeping in, swimming, reading, eating and relaxing.

So today was my first day to do all that. Here are some photos from my day.

Slept in until after 12 noon

Relaxed on the chaise lounge in the slippers and robe from the hotel. 

 

Continued with the book I have been trying to finish. Not done yet.

Delicious gluten free chocolates from the hotel restaurant 

Hubby was sweet enough to get me breakfast foods from the lounge as he knew I wouln’t make the times for breakfast.

I watched the unending traffic and rain

Ate delicious gluten free pizza and am watching the Raiders play the 49ers

I am definitely haven’t a much better day than the Raiders. Sigh

Wonder what tomorrow will bring for my vacation.
