Ok I admit it... when it comes to jewelry organization I definitely have some improvement to do, so as we moved into a new home I thought it was time to get my accessories organized. Here are some inspirations:

Do you have any tips on how to organize accessories?

Irish coffee and Lucky Charms ice cream


I don't know a lot of non Anglo-Saxon people who celebrate St. Patrick's day, but having gone to a British school since kindergarden and having lived in London for 7 years let's say that I kind of picked up the habit of celebrating this day! 
With my days getting busier, i thought of making a very simple & quick St. Patrick's day recipe : Irish Coffee and Lucky Charms ice cream.

RECIPE
For the Irish coffee:
-1 cup of coffee (I use Nespresso)
-Whipping cream
-A dash of Whiskey 
-Brown sugar (to taste)

For the Lucky Charms Ice cream:
- 1 scoop of vanilla bean ice cream
- Lucky Charms marshmallows (separated from the cereal)

Moving house rituals

1

We are moving house and are in the middle of boxes and dust!!
I really can't wait to be done as I had forgotten how exhausting moving was... As I take (a very much deserved) break from it all, I decided to do my checklist of things to do when entering a new apartment.
I am quite superstitious and have always done some rituals in a new home, (yes I do feel a little like Phoebe Buffay from friends;)) 

Here are a few:

*What are your good luck/ Feng Shui rituals before entering a new home?

Make your own sage smudge stick and burn it throughout the house to clear negative energy
2

Do not bring broken items from your previous home
3

Place salt in each room of your house to absorb any negative energy
4

De- clutter all unnecessary items from your old house and keep it minimal 
5

Water is an important Feng Shui element for your house
6

Place Hematite crystals in your house for grounding the energy and protecting your new home
7

Sprinkle rice by your entrance door and sweep it outside asking the bad energy to leave with it
8

My greek evil eye
