One year older but not feeling it :-)

So has yet another birthday gone by and I don't feel any different. I'm now 57 and I'm glad I am.
I don't understand people who doesn't want to celebrate that they have achieved one more year of this short time we have on earth. I love celebrate every day and I say Carpe Diem.
This is me totally without any make-up at all. Not too bad :-)

I really had a great day with lots of people gratulating me especially on Facebook where over 100 of my friends sent messages. Thank you all. I love you <3.
The day before I made two different cakes which I brought with me to work. They seemed to like them both :-) Because it was my birthday and I didn't want to bake anymore I brought the rests back home for dessert.
The cakes
Jonas, Mandy and Danniel came for dinner and we had a great time. Emil couldn't come because he was abroad on holiday. 
When I got home from work I started cooking and made a new dish with tenderloin of pork which I served with rice and salat. It was really good!
Dinner
We had a great time with lots of chat and laughing :-) I got flowers and a wonderful spa-kit which had a gorgeous scent. From Hasse I got a weekend at our favorite hotel - Marina Tower in Saltsjöqvarn, Stockholm. I also got a wonderful boquet of flowers from Gunilla and Staffan with families. From Kitte and Janne I got a beautiful Kalla (lilac).
By the way did I tell you I won the latest round in the food competition at work? It was my salmon gratin with spincach and whitewine sauce. I'm so happy :-)

Today I had my friend Inger, our "grandchildren" Tanya, Tommy, Tracy and her boyfriend Claes over for coffee. For the first time ever I had made a real marcipan cake all by myself. I had no idea how it would taste but it was good. From them I received a lot of lotteries but I didn't won anything big, just small wins but I'm happy for that :-)
The most important thing is that they came to see me and congratulate. They even sang and it was really really nice.
The marcipan cake
Tomorrow I'm going to the theater and see the musical Spamalot which premiered here in Stockholm yesterday. I saw it in Malmö but then the leading diva role wasn't played by Nina Söderquist but she plays it now. I'm so looking forward seeing it here. It received great reviews from everyone.
Afterwards we are meeting Nina in her dressingroom for a short while and then we have reservations at a nearby restaurant. 
I hope you all are having a wonderful weekend as well. Take care out there!

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...
