Zarif transforms into a 6 year old ...

we threw a very last minute small party for Big Z over the weekend.
so last minute was this party planned, i decided to go against my own tradition (as far as parties are concerned) and made do without invitation cards. guests were invited via Facebook.

this was also the first party i threw which had a character theme to it.
Big Z's at that age where his views and thoughts pretty much need to matter more now. he wanted a Transformers party. in steps the rebellious mummy ... i agreed on the theme, but with some tweaking here and there, i made it a little less commercial and conventional a Transformers party.

below, some photos of the party.

our world in our hands ...

one thing i do love to indulge in time and again, are my travels abroad. *guilty!*

on that note, i'd love to start a small, but worthy collection of globes of various makes, styles and finishes. beautiful and playful works of art and craftsmanship. in one single object that is the globe, one gets to enjoy art, science and geography. that to me, is a pretty good deal.

below, some images of globes put on display in interesting and very beautiful ways.
