Because sometimes, the weirdest part is realizing how deeply normal things can feel like magic...
Lost in the Swiss Jura...
A break from chaos and conspiracies today… Sometimes, the strangest magic comes from the simple stuff: roots, rituals, and rediscovery.
Yep, this morning I drove my kids to their grandparents in the house where my father was born.
Sun and love.
The tent is built and my children are now set for a week of Grand-maman and Grand-papa.
I enjoy coming back to my roots! What about you?
🎁 Curiosity Fuel: Strange Picks of the Day
Here’s a peaceful, nostalgic, slightly offbeat mix inspired by family visits and summer sun:
🏡 Time Capsule Starter Kit – Includes a tin box, waterproof journal, Polaroid camera, and 1990s snack wrappers to confuse future archaeologists. Bury with caution...
🌲 Grandparent-Approved Survival Tent – Comes with built-in mosquito net, flashlight shaped like a badger, and a button that plays bedtime stories in an exaggerated grandparent voice. Just try it, you won’t sleep…
🕯️ "Roots & Relatives" Memory Candle – Smells like your grandparents’ house: a perfect blend of old books, apple pie, garden soil, and slight attic musk. Brings tears. Not allergies…
📻 Camping Radio – Only plays static, distant accordion music, and a voice that sounds like your childhood neighbor calling your name for dinner. Perfect for any emergency…

You are SO LUCKY to have the intact family, all together! So many these days do not have that luck... Btw., SO MUCH grass, where are the cows, sheep, goats, ducks, chickens, gooses, rabbits, donkeys?Your son would be happy to ride a horse, or the donkey, to guide the sheep with a little doggie instead of breathing in the dirty exhaust of a human made machine, disposing the food=grass... Sorry, for complaining, as always..;(
ENJOY!!!
