Smooties


1 banana
Natural yogurt
Frozen blueberries and raspberries

Perfect smootie for me today!

Unforunatly my pretty pink mixer broke down (a little bit smoke and a wierd smell) so there will be no more smooties for a while...

Well...after this power break I'm gonna go back to the sewing machine and finish my new curtains.

Beautiful Begonias in my kitchen window

Yesterday I realised my lovely CultDesign pots was looking quite sad where they were standing gaping empty in my kitchen window. So I took my bike down to the garden center to buy some plants. Easier said than done! I walked around in the different rooms trying to decide what I wanted. Green plants or something with flowers on? If flowers then what colour? Can I handle a plant that needs water often or should I go for one that can survive a drought?

I finally decided to go for the cerise begonias. They had the right size and a lovely colour. I hope they will like it here at my place...I sure like having them around!

Project Runway

Been following Project Runway season 4 for some time now. And I've fallen in love with it! Yesterday showed the two final episodes. Too bad Chris didn't go to the final (that actually made me cry....Me touchy?! No way!)...I think he made amazing and faboulous things. Was not all that impressed by Rami to be honest. But at least my favourit Christian won! He's so fierce!! Take a look at his beautiful final collection here.

Final evening at Leif's lounge for the summer
Picnic at the cliffs by the sea

Consert at Solgården


That was some of the things I've been doing this summer...

Besides the above things I've aslo:
- worked with people I enjoy working with (most of them and most of the time that is...)
- learnt a thing or two about football
- had wonderful and lazy days on the beach
- spent time with the family
- spent time with good old friends... and some new ones as well...

One thing about looking back like this at a summer is that you always only remember the good days...
But to be honest my summer have had some really low and lousy days this year as well. But that doesn't make the really good ones less good...(and I owe it all to you...)

Song of the summer:
I've had the time of my life - from "Dirty Dancing"

Song of the day


While packing my bags today (going back to Linköping tomorrow...) I've been listening to the wonderful song Somebody's everything by Dolly Parton.

Thank you Carrie Bradshaw!!!
