This is something fresh and new I’m trying. New things are scary, but sometimes scary is good. I am going to try writing my own story, in little parts. What I think, what I do, what I see. Like an old scrapbook, with pictures and quotes and movie tickets pasted in. There shall be recipes and stories for rainy days. Sketches and scribbles and sewing.
I want this to be simple. Simple, pure and heartwarming things make me smile. A spider’s web of memories and magic and fairy tales. A treasured keepsake journal for anyone to stumble upon. It won’t all be sunshine and butterflies, because life isn’t, sometimes its greyclouds and beestings, there will be a little of that too.
Most of all I want it to be real. Even if half of it is make-believe, it will be real to me.

Hello Skye!!
This is lovely. The layout, the name, the entries and pictures. All of it!
I’m almost speechless. I was worried that I’d miss the old Princess Portal too much. I will miss it yes…but your idea for a sort of scrapbook-style blog…is just so wonderful. I love it!
It’s so interesting to see this ‘New Skye’ and how different you really are. If you would have kept going with the Princess portal I bet you would have started to get stuck in a rut.
“It won’t all be sunshine and butterflies, because life isn’t, sometimes its greyclouds and beestings, there will be a little of that too.”- I’m glad to hear than since it is the healthiest mindset, I believe.
Well just so you know, I’m personally not disappointed at all. You’ve done a great job! I’m already a fan of “The Lost Princess”!!!
(PS: will we be calling you Princess Skye anymore? Or just Skye?)
Hello Claudia! Thank you so much for your sweet comments.
You can call me Skye or Princess Skye or Skylark, I don’t mind.
I want to read your history… Can you give me a copy? Errr… Kisses
I’m not quite sure if I know what you mean?
Sorry, but I am Brazilian and sometimes my English is not very well. But I wanted to say that I want to read your history! Do you understand? Kisses
I think you have a great blog concept here! I’m looking forward to reading more posts!
Thank you lovely <3
This sounds like a lovely idea, and somehow reminds me of a book called “Como agua para chocolate” in which a young girl tells her story through recipes written in a diary of sorts, explaining her feelings and thought as she prepared them. It will definitely be fun to follow your new blog, great job! ^^
I have not heard of that book, but it sounds wonderful. Thank you for your support.
I’ll miss all the good advise I got from the Princess Portal, but I look forward to all the pretty new things I’ll see here.
Skye,
The new blog looks splendid! I waited patiently and now here it is, better than ever! The concept is definitely beautiful. I look forward to reading your entries and continue to learn from you!
Thanks for this gift to all of us!

The Lost Princess seems wonderful. I haven’t a doubt that it’ll be a huge success.
However…I hope you don’t mind that you’ll always be a Princess Skye to me. =)

I’m sorry that this is a rather long time since your first post, but who wrote the book pictured? I cannot find it out :(
