Honestly, I'm not a big fan of purple.....

Yet I've decided to do this to my office walls.

What on earth am I thinking, you might say, well the carpet in the matching deep grape purple is a clue. Momma has a plan mates. I'll show you when it's done, kay?

Sett på Gärdet, i Stockholm.
Sett på Netto, i Malmö.

Bra reklam får en att dra på smilbanden.

jam.se har alltid lite kul med sin reklam. Nu delar de ut gratis luftgitarrer också.
Blogglunch, Malmö på Cuba café - som var stängt??
dabitch — Sunday, July 6, 2008 - 13:56

Snopet. Här har man lyckats ta sig till en blogglunch för en gångs skull och finner ett jättestängt Cuba Café. Vad gör man när man inte hittar någons telefonnummer heller? (förutom Åsas då, men hon hade fastnat på jobbet och visste inte heller var folk var) Svar; man ger upp.
En tripp till Terrariet senare avnjöts hallon och ramlösa på Debaser bredvid istället. Mums.

"Jag älskar...... " (I love......)

Yesterday little miss sunshine rose with the sun as usual and I had to snap out of my wishes to sleep late and get her ready for a long full day of fun. She didn't know what I was planning and protested as we were about to leave, but I explained - we're going to Folket's Park, to see Merkado and pick up that adorable Owl tray that Lotta made - and then we can do lots of other fun stuff like have pancakes with ice cream!
She agreed, and off we marched. Soon after arriving when all the bumper cars and shining horses or carousels had mesmerized her, she declared "I love... " and then she waved her hands about to point at everything trying to find the words. "Folkets park" I replied. "yes!" she said, "I love Folkets Park".
And who wouldn't, after bumper cars, carousels and little truck driving rides?

After this was one was done she declared "that one was a little dangerous." Didn't stop her from enjoying the ride though.

The most popular things are free - like bathing in the fountain. Never gets old.
The livingroom is coming together (finally)

Remember that couch that I fell madly in love with, but didn't bid on as money was tight?
How lucky am I, who found another one with chairs, now that I was 'rich' enough to dare a bidding? Luckyyyy! Fine, they're not exactly the same in shape, and this one has another color and pattern alltogether but it came with chairs too. :) I'll just save up to get it upholstered in something new as sun as bleached the formerly black and white 50-pattern into a brown sort of mess.

So now, we have a good couch that turns into a bed when friends need to sleep over and comfy chairs! (thanks to our neighbours who helped us carry these in too, and thanks to Perle and her pal Kalle for testing the bouncy-ness of the couch. Yes it's plenty bouncy. Bounce bounce!)

While contemplating what color combination I might dress this couch up in (dark sides like the first one I saw is a given, that looks great) - I got lucky once again and found these items at Stadsmissionen, for like no money. 1950's mustard and muted olive! I think these items will influence the rest of the rooms colors now.

I have no idea who the signature "cgc" is or why there's a number on the back of the ashtray (number 145) - I found an identcal one on Tradera but no information on Rörstrand CGC. Whatever, it's awesome looking, the color is delish and goes well with the serving dish - and everything in turn goes great with my gold pencil thin lined wallpaper. Even if I tried to swear off teak and 1950s style that I'm so addicted to, as it doesn't really suit the house, these items are fitting in rather well. :)
Perle's score at the vintage store.

Another score from Stadmissionen - the surprise box.

As I was pining over mustard ashtrays and olive plates, Perle brought me a tin box with pretty fish and seahorses on it, I agreed to let her buy it. When we came home we discovered that it was full of beads and plastric strings, which made for long hours of eye-crossignly difficult concentration.
The end result was worn with pride and even slept in.

Busy weekend.

What a busy weekend. No wonder she overslept this morning.

"I'm flying, I'm flying, I'm jumping in the air, I'm flying" she sang as she hopped around for at least two hours with her cousin under the appletrees in her aunts backyard.

Then we went to the beach in Denmark, and stared at Sweden which we could see on the horizon.

She worked on her tan for five whole minutes.
Back in Malmö, pancackes and ice cream in Folkets Park under the ferriswheel.

Then a quick ride around the fountains.

Showing off her big girl bike and cool helmet that she scored on the kids fleamarket.

Katten säljer

Bläddrade igenom hemnet och fann min katt i en av mäklarnas bilder av gården. Undrar om han får provision.
