Try this at home-chocolate banana cake

A wind of change is spreading across the Middle East. Regimes changing, presidents falling and new blood rising, empowering those who brought those revolutions.

I’m having my own small revolution at home…

My little world has been shaken by a sweet breeze that’s moving me to a new house. A lovely villa with a small garden where I’ll be planting a rainbow of flowers.

Change the house, throw this couch, buy this carpet, hang those curtains, paint this wall, plant the garden, clean, nail, furnish, move, drill, place, move, place, open, close, sit …

Feel at home.
