A Day in the Life of Emma

Lots of exciting things happening this year, 2015 has been a really fun year so far! This morning, after a quick stop at the Globus deco sale I had a meeting with the manager at Ease Design Spa here in Zurich, it’s a beautiful day spa in Zurich West, they recently won the Spa diamond award for best day spa. We were talking about doing some events together this year… I then had a combined working lunch/playdate with my friend Oksana at my place. We are working on a new creative project together that I’m super-excited about! I was planning to go to my friend Bettina’s gallery opening tonight but since Carl is in London I didn’t have a babysitter… Hope you’ve all had a beautiful day ❤

Hope you’ve had a good start to the week. Carl is in London until Thursday night, he left early this morning. We had swimming as usual this afternoon and tomorrow is Kung Fu Panda day. On Wednesday I have a really exciting (hopefully!) business meeting in the morning, then lunch with a dear friend to discuss a new fun project and in the evening a gallery opening at my friend and neighbour Bettina’s gallery. On Thursday I’m finally meeting up with a lovely girlfriend I haven’t seen since my birthday and after that we have the Swedish school… Friday is my ceramics day and also acupuncture in the afternoon, in the morning we are celebrating Noah’s birthday in school 🙂 Saturday is Noah’s party and hopefully we’re just having a quiet Sunday… Until then I’m also hoping to get some work and study done, and maybe even some painting. That’s my week, hope yours has started really well ❤

Noah turned 5 on Saturday! Can’t believe it’s been five years since he was born, in tropi

cal Singapore… This year he had snow on his birthday, we spent the day at the zoo, as per his request…

I had lunch with my beautiful friend Oksana today to discuss a new exciting project… I love Brasserie Lipp, definitely one of my Zurich favourites.

It feels so good to be back into a routine again after the holidays. The boys are back in school and their activities have started again after the break. I’ve had some really exciting business meetings and more are planned for this week and next. So excited about some upcoming projecs, will let you know more soon! Here are some snapshots from the last couple ofweeks…

As you all probably know by now, I love to cook, bake, eat and drink 🙂 Here are some of my favourites from the last couple of weeks…

We’ve had two birthdays in our house recently, first Thomas last week and yesterday Oistin. We’re so happy to have such nice neighbours. Here are some pics from the celebrations…

It’s been so nice to spend the weekend at home, getting ready for a new week and unpacking Christmas gifts…

After two days in Milano we left for Venice. There are so many gorgeous hotels here, I couldn’t choose just one, so we spent the first night in Domina Home Ca Zusto which is a small boutique hotel with individually designed rooms, located just by the Grand Canal. And we were upgraded to a suite! Last night we moved to Hilton Molino Stucky, which is an amazing old building, once home to a flour mill. They have a rooftop pool/bar with beautiful views over Venice…
