Snow

This afternoon it started snowing and it's really beautiful. It actually stays on the ground since it has been cold and icy all day.
When I was out walking Hilma she went nuts. She just loves the snow especially eating it. Every winter it's the same she rather eat the snow than drink water. Isn't that strange? Does any of you have a dog that does the same?

Today I started work late since we had this information all afternoon but do you think I got anything done? I slept in until 07.30 which was very nice. Then had a lovely breakfast. I was going to watch TV a favourite show I have that is called A place in the sun, but suddenly our TV didn't work :-(
We have installed a satellite dish last Friday and it hasn't been working properly since so I got so frustrated. I was trying to get it to work and the clock kept ticking.
Finally I had to take a shower, do my hair and makeup, eat lunch and then off to work so I actually ended up stressing. Oh, I forgot I cut H's hair as well and prepared dinner.

I have to share a recipe with you and it is what we had to dinner yesterday. It was a new recipe I tried and it was delicious but I added some bits and pieces making it even better (I think). So here it is:

Stew of pork fillet and honey

70 g bacon
500 g pork fillet
salt and pepper
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon flour
2,5 dl water
2 dl cream
1 tablespoon tamarisoy
1 tablespoon honey
2 apples
1 teaspoon tarragon
1 teaspoon mushrom soy
300 g pasta
100 g salat
1 dl fine chopped leek
200 g tomatoes
100 g sliced carrots

Cut the bacon i smaller pieces. Fry in a pan. Cut the porkfillet in thin slices and fry them in the butter i the pan. Season with salt and pepper.
Sprinkle flour and stir. Add water, cream, honey, tamarisoy and mushrom soy. Let it simmer for about 10 minutes. Cut the apples in slices and add together with tarragon.
Serve with a salat made out of salat, leek, tomatoes and carrots and pasta.

I hope you will enjoy this dish which we thought was good. You can even serve it when you have guests. It's that good.

It's the big PARTY tomorrow and I'm sure we will have a lot of fun. I'm a bit sad because I had 3 different things that I was invited to. That never ever happens otherwise. First I was invited to this big party at Café Opera, then my work party and also tomorrow night H.E.A.T will perform unplugged at Harry B James in Stockholm. That would have been something to see. But you have to make a choice and I choose my work since 28 years. I am going to see H.E.A.T in Linkoping as well as in London and I can't go to every concert even if I wanted to :-)

Now I'm actually going to watch TV!! I'm going to see a programme called Farmer looks for a wife. Until tomorrow then :-)

WOW!!! I just have to say Wow!

Why do you ask? I just got a mail telling me that I have won a romantic trip to Paris for 2! I enrolled in this competition, last year, which was to write a slogan and I had forgot all about it when the mail came. I didn't remember it even then so I had to go to the site and see what it was :-) I'm so happy! and so is Hasse :-) We had a great Easter which started with a wonderful ballet, Giselle, at the Royal Opera with my friend Carina. We are going again tomorrow to see Puccinis Turandot :-) The next day Easter Day we went to Gavle and this time we actually stayed at a hotel, Elite Grand hotel. A newly opened hotel, March 1, where we had the executive suite. What a suite! I have to show you some photos. One of the best suites I've ever stayed in!   The suite taken from the "living-room area"  From the "cosy" area with wood burning stove   Our "little" bathroom with green marble Part of the bedroom What do yo...

Christmas gift

For Christmas I got a giftcard to Amazon.com from my sister Jo. It was a real treat to go to the site, explore and find something to buy. There are so many things there and it's hard to choose. For me, leaving in Sweden, it's a bit easier. I just cross the square that says "ships to Sweden" and I get all the things I can order. My choice was Bliss socks and a big bottle of Dermalogica body cream. They came today and I'm so happy. So once again a big thank you big sis for the generous gift.  

BIRTHDAY, H.E.A.T, E.R and more...

Some of the wonderful flowers I got And some more Last week didn't start out well. On Monday I woke up and could hardly walk. I had such pain every step I tried to take. But off to work anyway. Tuesday even worse so I went to the doctor's office and asked to borrow crutches. Wednesday at work jumping on crutches, that must have been a sight ;-) But when I came home from work Wednesday I had fever so I went to bed quite early but didn't sleep well because of the constant pain. Thursday morning I woke up and had fever so I called the hospital and they said I had to go to the E.R. I hate that and if I can I always try to avoid it. But I was in so much pain I had to. I came and after a while they took bloodtests, urine and then I sat in a kind of smallish room. After being there for about 3 hours a doctor came and said I probably should see and orthopedic and not a medicine doctor. After one more hour another doctor came and said my bloodtest showed I had an i...
