			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So far the Winter has been pretty fickle up here. The temperature keeps floating between just below freezing and some 10C. We haven&#8217;t had that much snow at all but lots of rain and mud instead. But still we find something to play with outdoors. The water that froze in the containers outside can always become fun sculptures during the day and beautiful ice lanterns at night. What a  good exercise on impermanence and detachment this was. The sculptures only lasted two days and have now meted away. The buckets are full again and we&#8217;re ready for the next freezing spell!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-3039" title="ice detail" src="http://www.warrenleecohen.com/luciana/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/DSC_0582-1024x680.jpg" alt="" width="450" height="299" /></p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-3041" title="lanterns" src="http://www.warrenleecohen.com/luciana/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/DSC_0569aa1-1024x680.jpg" alt="" width="450" height="299" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><em>O inverno aqui tem estado bem indeciso esse ano. A temperatura varia entre -3 e +10C. Quase não tivemos neve mas temos tido muita chuva e lama. Mas ainda assim achamos coisas para fazer ao ar livre. A água que congelou nos recipientes deixados do lado de fora viraram divertidas esculturas pela manhã e lindas lanternas de gelo a noite. Esse foi também um ótimo exercício em desapego e impermanência. Nossas obras de arte duraram apenas dois dias antes de derreterem completamente. Já enchemos os baldes de novo e estamos prontos para a temperatura congelar de novo!</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My flowers are popping open! Back in May I planted my first flower garden ever. Around the third week of May the  seedlings started breaking through the soil and since then I have been anxiously waiting for this big moment.  I planted Cosmos, Zinnias, Echinacea and Poppies. Sadly, absolutely nothing happened with the Echinacea or Poppies. Maybe the seeds weren&#8217;t good? Maybe the soil wasn&#8217;t right? It was a tad disappointing at first but the excitement of watching the other plants grow made up for it. Our veggie garden is also doing really well this year. We&#8217;ve been harvesting salad greens everyday plus cucumbers, tomatoes and even strawberries. Yum yum. All this food growing has also been  inspiring the little ones to make their own concoctions in their mud kitchen. Summer is fun.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-2726" title="seeds" src="http://www.warrenleecohen.com/luciana/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/DSC_0677-1024x680.jpg" alt="seeds" width="450" height="299" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-2730" title="zinnia" src="http://www.warrenleecohen.com/luciana/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/DSC_0491-1024x680.jpg" alt="zinnia" width="450" height="299" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-2727" title="cosmos" src="http://www.warrenleecohen.com/luciana/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/DSC_0494-1024x680.jpg" alt="cosmos" width="450" height="299" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-2728" title="cucumbers" src="http://www.warrenleecohen.com/luciana/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/DSC_0488-1024x680.jpg" alt="cucumbers" width="450" height="299" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-2729" title="strawberries" src="http://www.warrenleecohen.com/luciana/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/DSC_0490-1024x680.jpg" alt="strawberries" width="450" height="299" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-2732" title="mud kitchen" src="http://www.warrenleecohen.com/luciana/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/DSC_0501-1024x680.jpg" alt="mud kitchen" width="450" height="299" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><em>As minhas flores estão desabrochando! No início de maio eu plantei o meu primeiro jardim de flores. Na terceira semana de maio os primeiros brotos começaram a sair do solo e aprtir de então eu venho esperando ansiosamente por esse grande momento. Eu plantei quatro tipo de flores, mas somente dois vingaram. Nada aconteceu com as equináceas e as papoulas. Talvez as sementes não estivessem boas? Talvez o tipo de solo não é favorável? Foi um pouco decepcionante no início, mas ver as zínias e o cosmos crescendo já vale a pena. Nossa horta também está indo muito bem esse ano. Temos colhido alface todos os dias e mais pepinos, tomates e até morangos. Nham nham. Todas essa plantação tem inspirado as pequenas a fazer seus próprios pratos especias na cozinha de lama. Verão é diversão!</em></p>

Liliana went for a mixed colour approach where the fun was basically to paste the pieces of paper and paint them with the glue. Marta planned hers so that each area of the bowl had a different colour. Their bowls now reside on their bedside table holding a few treasures each. I was inspired by <a href="http://littlesliceoflife.wordpress.com/2011/02/25/%E2%80%98stained-glass%E2%80%99-paper-bowl-tutorial/" target="_self">this post at A Little Slice of Life</a>. Check it out for a more detailed tutorial.</p>

<p><em>Primeiro escolhemos as cores, depois cortamos o papel de seda em pedaços pequenos, revestimos as tigelas em filme e começamos a colar.  Colocamos as tigelas para secar lá fora onde o sol estava brilhando forte e algumas horas depois&#8230; voi-lá: dois lindos potinhos translúcidos. Liliana partiu para um estilo multicor onde a diversão foi basicamente colocar os papéis e passar cola. A Marta planejou o dela de modo que cada área do pote teve uma cor diferente. Os dois potes agora residem na mesa de cabeceira do quarto das meninas, cada um guardando seus preciosos tesouros. A minha inspiração foi <a href="http://littlesliceoflife.wordpress.com/2011/02/25/%E2%80%98stained-glass%E2%80%99-paper-bowl-tutorial/" target="_self">esse post no A Little Slice of Life</a>. Dá só uma olhada para um passo-a-passo mais completo.</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Marta, Liliana and I spent a good five weeks working on a birthday present for Warren. We made him a collection of handmade books. The first week we worked on the covers, making watercolour paintings. The second week we bound the books. The third and forth weeks we filled the pages with beautiful drawings. Finally, on the last week we wrapped them as gifts. It was actually a very interesting process for the girls. From the beginning I told them we were making books to give to Papa for his birthday but when we were making the paintings for the cover, they really just enjoyed painting. When we turned the paintings into book covers, added the pages and started the drawing Marta and Liliana wanted the books for themselves. When they realised the activity didn&#8217;t just finish but carried on for weeks they really got it that we were making something special for Papa. Yesterday they were just beaming with pride when we gave Warren the presents. Warren was so touched his eyes filled with tears! Such a treasure to witness this moment. Other than the books this lucky man also got a homemade blueberry pie, a bunch of handpicked wild flowers from our backyard and a DVD set of the series <a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/nature/humanplanetexplorer/" target="_self">Human Planet</a> produced by the BBC (which I can&#8217;t wait to watch it myself!). </p>

<p><em>Eu, Marta e Lili passamos umas boas cinco semanas trabalhando no presente de aniversário para o Warren. Nós fizemos para ele uma coleção de livros feitos a mão. Na primeira semana trabalhamos na capa, fazendo pinturas com aquarela. Na segunda encadernamos os livros, na terceira e quarta enchemos as páginas com lindos desenhos. E finalmente, na última semana, embrulhamos os presentes. Esse foi, na verdade, um processo super interessante para as meninas. Desde o início eu falei que estávamos fazendo um presente para o Papa, mas quando fizemos as pinturas para as capas dos livros elas curtiram fazer só a pintura. Quando as pinturas se transformaram nos livros  e começamos a desenhar, elas quiseram os livros para elas. Quando elas se deram conta de que a atividade não terminava mas continuava a cada semana elas realmente sentiram que estavam fazendo algo especial para o Papa. Ontem elas eram orgulho puro quando deram os presentes para o Warren. O Warren ficou tão emocionado que lágrimas encheram seus olhos! Muito precioso ser testemunha desse momento tão lindo. Tirando os livros, esse papai sortudo também ganhou uma torta de blueberry feita por mim, um bouquet de flores selvagens catadas a seis mãos no nosso jardim e o conjunto de DVDs da série <a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/nature/humanplanetexplorer/" target="_self">Human Planet</a> produzida pela BBC (que eu estou louca para assistir!). </em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hello again! I so not planned this blog break. My apologies to you that came back for new posts only to find the pretty tulips again and again&#8230; at least they are nice to look at! I slipped off my routine <a href="http://www.warrenleecohen.com/luciana/2011/05/still-here/" target="_self">a while ago</a> and didn&#8217;t quite managed to get back to it still, and it is true I have been busy. Busy making things with the children, for the children, for the hubby, for friends, for myself. Busy reading, knitting, sewing, cooking and watching the garden grow. In my absence from this space we also had a visit from the grandparents and lots of activities away from home. I missed both blogging and reading and commenting on my favourite blogs. I&#8217;m back and hopeful that I&#8217;ll find my blog writing/reading rhythm again.</p>
<p>Here are some pictures of one fun project I did with the girls just before my parents came. We used  paper plates, markers, paper crepe and wooden chopsticks to make masks. I had all the materials at home and the inspiration came to me in a flash one day the girls really needed an activity to focus their energy on and stop getting at each other. I was so grateful that the idea came to me so quickly and that it was very easily achievable too. We made two designs each, enjoyed each moment of the creative process, had our moods transformed and enjoyed a lovely afternoon thereafter!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Olá de novo! Esse recesso bloguístico não foi nada planejado. Perdão aqueles que retornaram a procura de posts novos apenas para se depararem com as fotos da lindas tulipas&#8230; pelo menos elas são bonitas de se ver! <a href="http://www.warrenleecohen.com/luciana/2011/05/still-here/" target="_self">Há um tempinho atrás</a> eu saí da minha rotina e ainda não consegui retomá-la totalmente. É verdade também que tenho andado ocupada. Ocupada fazendo coisas com as crianças, para as crianças, para o maridão, para amigos, e para mim. Ocupada fazendo tricô, costurando, cozinhando, lendo e vendo o as flores crescerem. Na minha ausência desse espaço também recebemos a visita dos avós e passeamos um bocado. Eu senti falta tanto de escrever no blog quanto de ler e comentat nos meus blogs favoritos. Agora eu estou de volta e com esperanças de achar o meu rítimo de novo.</p>
<p>Aqui vão alguma fotos de um projeto divertido que fiz com as meninas um pouco ante de os meus pais chegarem. Nós usamos pratos de papel, papel crepon, canetinha de feltro, e espetinho de churrasco para fazer máscaras. Eu tinha todos os materiais em casa e a inspiração me veio como um raio num dia que as meninas realmente precisavam de um atividade para concentrar suas energias e parar de implicar uma com a outra. Tão agrdecida eu fiquei da idéia ter vindo não só rapidamente mas também ter sido tão fácil de executar. Cada uma de nós fez duas máscaras, curtimos cada momento do processo criativo, transformamos os humores e curtimos uma ótimo resto de tarde!</p>
