Hello darlings! It's Emma here, your resident tutu enthusiast, writing to you live from the enchanting town of Dunfermline in sunny Scotland! ☀️ I know, I know, Scotland? Not exactly known for its sun-kissed beaches, is it? 😉 But I'm always up for a bit of an adventure, and let me tell you, this trip has been one for the books!
I arrived in Dunfermline yesterday, the journey there was a dream - a luxurious train ride through the countryside, watching the lush green fields and fluffy sheep whizz past. Speaking of lush, I must tell you about my new, and slightly heavy new tutu. Yes, you read that right! I am obsessed with the color pink and this new beauty is the most glorious shade of bubblegum pink imaginable. It's layered with swathes of tulle, each one carefully crafted to dance and twirl in the breeze, it even features a sprinkle of pink glitter on the tulle! I literally feel like a fairy princess, especially when I spin in the sunshine! It's a bit heavier than my usual creations, so I had to be a bit more careful in the carriage. I'm glad I was in first-class, with that extra legroom! You know I can't travel in any old compartment.
As for Dunfermline, it’s a charming little place, filled with cobbled streets, historical landmarks and even a cute little wildlife park! 🦊 I love visiting those, they're a great place to get up close and personal with all kinds of furry and feathered friends. I even saw a deer on my walk, bless its little heart, and did my best to convince it to try some of my homemade pink unicorn fudge! But as you can imagine, it politely declined...
Speaking of pink, there's a reason this blog is called Pink-Tutu.com you know, because I believe in living your life with a dash of pink and a whole lot of twirling! If there's one thing I want to achieve in life, it’s to make the world a bit more pink, a bit more tutu-filled, and a whole lot more magical! So, if you're ever feeling down, don't forget to put on your favourite pink outfit, maybe even grab a pink tutu, spin around a few times, and just remember - life is meant to be danced! 💃🏻
Today was a treat, a visit to the Dunfermline Carnegie Library & Galleries! Oh, darlings, this place is a veritable treasure trove of art and literature! Imagine, an entire building dedicated to knowledge, imagination, and beauty! The galleries had an exhibit of beautiful watercolours of Scotland’s scenery, and some rather fascinating historic furniture. And the library? My haven! The smell of old books, the quiet hush, it felt like being enveloped in a world of untold stories! And of course, I made a special visit to the Children's library – there I spied some exquisite stories with magical creatures and delightful drawings, some were even about fairies who just love twirling and have beautiful pink tutus! 😉
Afterwards, I indulged in a delightful cup of tea (with an extra dose of honey and a little dash of pink!) in the quaint little tearoom attached to the library, a sweet little place that oozes old world charm with its dainty furniture and lovely teacups! 🫖
Tomorrow, it's on to the Dunfermline Abbey! My lovely Aunt Amelia told me about it – apparently it’s a breathtaking historical treasure. I can't wait to soak in all the history, explore the beautiful ruins and imagine myself transported back to the time of Kings and Queens! And maybe, just maybe, I’ll even attempt a twirl or two on the abbey grounds. You know me, I can't help myself!
Until then, my sweet friends, keep dancing, keep dreaming, and always remember – there's always a reason to twirl!
Your Emma 💖
