black&colourful

"fika" yesterday morning



It was so grey and cold and horrible outside. I had to cheer myself up with my biggest coffee cup,
filled with coffee and with a massive mountain of vanilla sugar whipped cream. And new VOGUE, of course.

my cup of tea

Peek a boo. Here I am. Tired. but happy. I have lots of good things to read, an other book arrived in the post today and so did new VOGUE U.K. Lovely. A bit distracting though. So many books, so little time. That's my problem. It looks like spring here where I live. The sky is baby blue and the sun is bright. But it is EXTREMELY cold. Freezing. My fingers feel like the're going to fall off - kind of freezing. Brr. I've gotten into English tea lately. I've always like it but now I love it. I think it's because I've started putting cream in it. Cream makes everything yummier, don't you think? I used to hate cream. I've only liked it for hmm about 2 years I think. It's highly addictive. Maybe it's time for a cuppa...

iPad


Info here and here. I do have a weakness for Apple products, I have always loved them. I only own an iPod nano though. But there are plenty of Apple things on my wish list.

kisses, love & coffee




I realised I hadn't posted anything today. Today has been weird. Slow.
Today's beautiful pictures:
1. Chanel Iman with Mickey Mouse ears
2. Pretty picture with hearts and bubbles
3. Starbucks drink in a cute pink Starbucks cup

I need to go cook dinner now!

brilliant!


Weight obsession is stupid and unnecessary. These scales take care of it. First you see numbers, hmm looks like normal scales... then you step on and some writing in Japanese appears and under it the translation (in Swedish). It says "Just right!". Brilliant.

Spontaneous Baking


Spontaneous chocolate ball making at my house yesterday (see picture!) Yummy!

I've completely fallen in love with these photos.

Listening to The Distillers and Bob Dylan at 9 a.m. to try and get the week to start. Well it's already started (at 6.45 a.m. actually) but the mind needs to get there too. Loud good music helps. School and coffee today.

I need to see these films soon!




I need to go to the cinema! Alice in Wonderland is not out yet though, but the other two are.

hoodies


Finding these hoodies in GINA TRICOT's webshop I realized I don't have any hoodies here in my U.K. home.
I like these but they're in Sweden and we don't have the shop in the U.K.
Hoodies are so nice. Big fluffy ones with lots of room.

herrbetjänt


Nice "herrbetjänt" from R.O.O.M. that sadly doesn't exist in Stockholm any more... *sob*
Does anyone know what these are called in English? Please let me know if you do.
I want one :) To keep clothes off the floor in the bedroom.

Miss Anne Hathaway




Someone looks rather beautiful here! The shorter haircute in pic 1 & 3 really works for her!

List in Swedish


jag är beroende av kaffe med sojamjölk och vispgrädde, mackor med ost, mycket ost. BÖCKER! Kärlek och kramar.
jag gillar människor som inspirerar mig.
jag äter väldigt ofta. Favoriter: mackor, glass (you know it; Ben & Jerry's eller Häagen Dazs), naturgodis, allt med ost.
jag säger ja till
en kopp kaffe till. Ett gäng nya böcker... Ett SMEG kylskåp...
jag ger mig sällan in i saker som drar ner mig
jag duktig på att läsa massa olika böcker samtidigt. Baka. Laga mat. Städa.Ta hand om barn (och vuxna)
jag stör mig på jobbiga männsikor.
jag läser vart jag än går. Det finns alltid minst en bok i min väska. Eller i min hand.
jag är vackrast när jag är nyvaken med rufsigt hår.
jag skrattar mycket.
jag är en typisk nörd. Boknörd. Designnörd. Baknörd.
jag har aldrig jag vet inte...
jag är lycklig med vänner och familj.
jag trivs inte med vad det nu är min kropp håller på med.
jag är dålig på att prata med folk jag inte känner på telefon.
jag är rädd att förlora fler av de som betyder mest.
jag älskar att få njuta av livet. De enkla sakerna.
jag uppskattar när jag blir ihågkommen.
jag tror på mycket men inte på kartor och inte på väderleksrapporter.

perfect.

millions


They showed this on tv last night. Super good! Really cute and scary and funny and everything at once! Magical too.

coffee and reading material


Big coffees....

Stuff to read... ELLE U.S. and a book I got with lovely Waterstones Magazine. Very cute little book. Quick read.
The other books I'm reading at the moment are "Music for torching" and "Autofiction". Both very good.

apple mint soap.



Got these for almost nothing yesterday. I love this brand, they packaging is gorgeous and the scents amazing. They do fruity smells and yummy smells such as toffee and chocolate sauce. Mmmm! These are perfect for our bathroom.

friday night?


I think our night will be something like this... film, sofa, wine, candles, kisses and cuddles...

Owls x 2


1. Little collage made by me. Owls are cute. Maybe not in real life, but drawings of owls are cute.
2. Cup by Petra Boase. From here.
