The Greatest Gift


A simple feast of jam and bread,
a bit of crafting with needle and thread,
a scary film seen to the end - 
all are much nicer when shared with a friend.


I'm sad to report that these two
have had a falling out over a certain handsome teddy bear.
Friends no more.

    Love the dolls Amalia!

  2. What a shame! Anyone can see these two are made for each other. Some dolls are just all looks and no brains, I think. ;) Love their starry eyes.

  66. I don't know how you think up these things, Amalia! You just keep on topping yourself. And this one I can easily see made into a movie with the two stars above, which may or may not be a film for children. And pretty soon we'd be seeing these two setting records in the merchandizing market.

    Why not pitch your idea? And I'll be able to say I knew you when!

    1. What a wonderful idea, Dewena. Thank you so much for that and for your kind words. One of them has quite the sharp tongue so it may not be a film for children, but it could be fun. I promise not to forget you when I'm famous :-)

  68. I had a good chuckle out of that, at the expense of those two, I'm sorry to say! I hope that they make amends, because no teddy bear is worth losing a friend :)

  72. Amalia, your posts make me smile every time. These are so cute, and you're right, it's nice to share time with a friend. That's why I love my blog friends so much.

    Those birds of paradise are such unusual flowers, aren't they? You were one of the few who thought they were beautiful. I think they're different but pretty as well, and I used the pics for my post because they look like people's profiles hehehehe.

    Have a lovely weekend.

  74. Oh dear, I hope they've realised that no bear, however handsome, is worth falling out over. They both look so cheerful and sunny natured too, sad to think of them ever getting grumpy!

  89. Oh so sad they had a falling out (I'd like to see that obviously handsome teddy bear too)! I really enjoyed visiting your blog for the first time and scrolled around a bit -- I am deeply ashamed to tell you that I did not know where Haifa is and had to go away and google it. So I learned something new today as well as getting to look at your beautiful pictures and enjoy your wonderful poems. Thanks for having me over :>)))

  91. Yeah that happens sometimes between friends:( Hope they make up or each find other friends! Sorry, for being slow with responding lately to your nice and kind comments! I think I caught a bug from one of the grand kids at Easter, and have been fighting to get my health back.Today I'm feeling better for the first time. So here I am, inviting you back to Seasons this week!
    Changed the beginning date to Sunday instead of Monday to give the bloggers overseas a little more time - I gave the others an email, but all the Dutch people I couldn't find the email (wonder if the Dutch internet gives more security!)
    Hope to see you at SEASONS before Wed. 7 pm, US Pacific time with one of your beautiful photos:) Have a beautiful week!
