Double Celebration

As a three-nationality family, we embrace every celebration from Italy, the US and the UK (and sometimes even more!). And today is a double celebration for us: it's Carnevale in Italy and Pancake Day in England.

We started the morning with a rich and colourful breakfast; for the occasion we made yellow, pink and blue pancakes and we added blueberries in the batter of the yellow ones for extra fun. 

 
 
 

Even Emilia was allowed to have some and she loved them. In fact, she was in such a cheerful mood that she even grabbed her Union Jack and started humming the national anthem! Cute. 

 

After breakfast, we dressed and walked with daddy to his office. I didn't buy a proper Carnival mask/outfit for Emilia but I still wanted to put something Carnivalesque on. So, here she is, queen for a day. A very modern, rock-chick version of the Queen. 

 
 

Buon Carnevale, Happy Pancake Day or whatever you are celebrating in whichever part of the world you are. I hope you all have a fabulous day!
