AUTUMN FAVOURITES

(Or The Things That Caught My Eye in the Last Few Months)

I saw somebody on youtube do this, namely list random favourite things she'd come across that month, and I thought why the hell not. It's something to write about, and at the same time a nice way to spread word (*cough* shamelessly advertise *cough*) about all the awesome things out there that are absolutely worth attention and time.

(A/N: Stating again that these are things I  enjoyed. Meaning, you might hate them, and that's fine. Personal taste and all that. Just don't say I didn't warn you.)


* The first thing I want to mention is definitely The Fault in Our Stars by John Green. Let's just say it's a bestseller that actually deserves to be a bestseller. I will do my best to write a separate post about it.



* Dr Perkins tea with camomile and lemon balm. Can be bought in Hofer (found under the name Erneuerunstee). For me, it works as a stress reliever. I might not be the best judge since almost any kind of tea would help me against stress...  Then again, lemon balm does have calming effects. I probably don't even have to start on the benefits of drinking camomile tea, do I? (Sadly, I have yet to find some health benefits of dipping chocolate into hot, freshly-brewed tea. Someday, though...)

















*Creator shoes. You can't see it in the picture, but they're actually the prettiest forest green ever. I've been watching Creator's shoes for ages, and nowI still don't have them. I only get to watch them on my favourite person in the world and save money for when I do buy them. Because yes, you guessed right, they're a bit pricey.





* The Hundred Foot Journey.



That's a movie about an Indian family that moves to Europe after losing everything in a fire.  They end up in a French town somewhere in the countryside and open a restaurant across from an already-established restaurant with a Michelin star. Rivalry ensues and new friendships are born because hey, if you can't beat them, join them. Full of family dynamics, tasteful humour, and genuine emotion.
