#54 Anyone for breakfast?

“When you wake up in the morning, Pooh,” said Piglet at last, “what’s the first thing you say to yourself?”

“What’s for breakfast?” said Pooh. “What do you say, Piglet?”

“I say, I wonder what’s going to happen exciting today?” said Piglet.

Pooh nodded thoughtfully. “It’s the same thing,” he said.”
A.A. Milne

Breakfast at Regal 1

What a treat! – to find fairies have set up a mysterious and beautiful breakfast is my idea of a great morning. With a little bit of peering under cups and chairs – and yes – inside the flower vase – I discovered that the whole lot come from by Apple Fall  BUT – they are all in a GACHA. I am not fond of gatchas – because I hate ending up with 7 chairs and no croissant. Blessings on whomsoever took the time and effort to collect this lot so that I can enjoy ‘breakfast at Tiffany’s’ in such style.

Breakfast at Regal 2

My fresh summery outfit is mostly from past SL events – and fortunately available now at the mainstores of KITJA and ::HH:: Hucci.

#46 Retro Love

Those who have never known the deep intimacy and the intense companionship of mutual love have missed the best thing that life has to give.
Bertrand Russell

Do you celebrate Valentine’s Day?  I never did …until I met my love in Second Life. Every year we take a photo for Valentine’s remembrance. This year I am a little early because I found this lovely pose at Image Essentials  – RETRO LOVE – it has the feel of nostalgia for me.

#39 It’s Cold Outside

“There’s no such thing as bad weather, only unsuitable clothing.”

Alfred Wainwright

My ‘go to’ outfit for the ice and snow around Second Life is a combination of a big coldLogic knitted jumper worn over Warm Clarity’s thermals – with my feet tucked in to Ava Kunglers Blanka boots.

#19 Feeling pink

This color represents compassion, nurturing and love. It relates to unconditional love and understanding, and the giving and receiving of nurturing.

A combination of red and white, pink contains the need for action of red, helping it to achieve the potential for success and insight offered by white. It is the passion and power of red softened with the purity, openness and completeness of white. The deeper the pink, the more passion and energy it exhibits.

#14 Our castle in the air

If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be.

Now put the foundations under them.                                                                              Henry David Thoreau

does this count?

These huge rocks are only 1 prim each, and they can be stretched and squished so they never need to look the same – so watch this space … they may breed

 

Castle in the air - 2

Our castle has grown over 5 years from parts of R.H.Engel’s build with various modifications – decks,  towers, windows in/windows out and variations of brick, wood and metal. We have changed how we use it too- from being our whole home and entertainment area with my photo studio to being our ‘private’ rooms. Currently it is pretty much empty – just the photos are up and the cats are loving the space (once I set the range so they stopped falling through space and washing up on the sea floor!)

Castle in the air - 4

 

Basil, Lavender, Puss and Boots – enjoying the art of the ‘afternoon nap’.  Puss and Boots were my original pair, and Basil & Lavender are rescue cats. One of the upgrades since they came to live with me is the option to change them from breeding pairs to perma-pets. I love this option and gradually they will all be perma-pets as the $L allow. The operation is not cheap.  Another recent upgrade is the ‘walk’  – so now as well as carrying your KittyKat you can have them follow along behind. Keeping pets in SL is a great option either for people like me who always have RL pets, or for people who can not have pets in RL.

Kohn has a shark, dolphins, seagulls and a crocodile!

 

Castle in the air - 5

 

Princess is a teacup perma-pet, and she joined the others quite by accident – but now there are enough!

#12 Oceans of Love

I LOVE my new graphics card. I can see again!

The Joy

The island is the same, but the land has changed to incorporate a sand hill and some ponds.  We are using the same beach house with new decks and planning to knock out some walls to add windows – all the better to see the lovely views. Before modifications the house was from Bahia Tiki – they have a fantastic range of Pacific and Asian inspired  houses – from spa sheds to palaces, as well as furniture. The Joy 3

Now to add in the extras…

The Joy 2

The rock walls and waterfalls  are from InVerse Landscaping  by Novocaine Islay and Kohn has bunched them up together and taken off some bits…

The Joy 4   Oceans of Love –  an underwater fantasy show by the EverDream Model Agency

Feel the excitement…the passion of dreams yet to come, the future, so bright and full of love. Merfolk and humans unite in your dreams for there is Love… we want you to enjoy these beautiful creations, inspired by love, romance and dreams. For what else is there in life?

#11 Early days

“It was like how people find other people to be in love with, all random and accidental and lucky.”
― Jennifer Castle, The Beginning of After

In Second Life creating  a place to live with each other and with our friends starts from a flat square  portion of a sim ….

Then there are the dreams and the dreamers ….

Early days 1

 

Early days 2

 

My partner Kohn loves to terraform – making areas of land and water for us to pile and festoon with treasures from our inventories – or new things we go and hunt for.

I like to find a bit of ‘still’ ground while he does the terraforming – because it makes me seasick (which is odd because being on the sea has never ever made me sick). My sleeping companion is my adorable wee Yorkshire terrier- Toasty – who is cunningly scripted to do many doglike  things. When set free he races about – usually keeping me in sight – and then randomly flops down on his back or side and snores heartily for several minutes.

I just happen to be wearing a comfortable and casual outfit  – and thank heavens heels don’t sink in SL sand – a soft jumper top from Cold Logic, comfy capris from Zaara and boots from Maitreya.

Kohn has collected off sim islands, rocks and even an erupting volcano to extend the borders of our square….

What do you think of the effect?
