For one of Daniel´s school assignments he had to count all the books in his home. I think he stopped when he got to around 1,200. (150 of those were just cookbooks.... Can someone please tell why, then, does it seem like I´m always cooking the same thing?... ) There are too many favorites, which I´m sure are your favorites too. So I thought I´d post about a lesser known book that is on my top 10. It´s called The Sensual Home by Ilse Crawford. Ilse Crawford was the editor of British Elle Decoration magazine for years when it was still worth the 7€ newsstand price ... (Now , not so much.) I could go on about her impeccable style and writing, but I think it´s just better to show you...

This will be the last CV until next year. The next few weeks are going to be a bit crazy around here. How about if we all meet back here on January 13th with the theme "holiday?" I can´t wait to read about what, how, and even when you celebrate. For example, in Spain, children don´t receive presents at Christmas... Now I´ve got Skylar´s attention... Oh the suspense!...
Happy CV!
¡Dos besos muy gordos!
