Carola show and charity event

Friday I went to the Rheumatic association to get a view of the new homepage and it's looking very promising.
After the meeting I went to my favourite chocolate store here in Stockholm:
Kungsholmens choklad & Café on Fleminggatan 45 (which is opposite S:t Erik's hospital). For you who knows Stockholm :-) She has the most delicious chocolate and so good coffee. If you ever are in the neighbourhood, don't miss out on a visit.
 (She's also a H.E.A.T mom)

Then yesterday me and Helen was at Tyrol which is a restaurant at the amusement park Gröna Lund (which is closed but the restaurant is open all year round). We had a great lunch and then a supershow with Carola who is probably the biggest star we have in Sweden. She has a show where she sings Barbara Streisand and Elvis music. It was absolutely great!

I have no idea why the photos are the wrong way and I don't know how to fix it. Advice please!


After the show we went to a charity event hosted by Victoria Tocca  who is a good friend. She now lives in Romania and has there started this project to save homeless dogs. She takes them in, get them healthy, they get their shots and learn how to be socially. Then they are adopted to Swedish families. A very good cause and the organisation is called Dinas ark.

Victoria is also nominated to HMM awards, in 3 different categories, in Hollywood November 17. I wish her all the best. She's a great singer.
Here's an example of her singing
Have a great Sunday everyone. Take care!

Oh my God

The Christmas smorgasbord I just realized I haven't written anything since November 23! But I can tell you I haven't been lazy but there has been so much going on that I haven't had the strength to write. I had meetings that week and I was supposed to be at a conference hotel for lunch that Friday but I was to tired I had to cancel it. So instead I baked safron buns (!) and made chocolate troufles with ginger.  The ferry On December 1 it was Staffan's birthday (Hasse's oldest son) and I worked and worked at my job. Thursday I and Hasse were supposed to go to the theatre and see Come again Charlie, which was one of my birthday presents - thank you Pär and Brita. But Hasse wasn't feeling well so instead I asked Linnea, my bonus grand daughter if she wanted to go and she was very happy that I asked. We had a really good time and the play, which was a comedy, was funny but also with a message which made you laugh and then stop. It was about the si...

Anyone??

I wonder if anyone can see and read my blogg? I haven't had any comments in so long that's why I ask. Erik didn't win a Grammy last night but he had a blast and he and his fiancé looked just great! Another Swede, Ludwig Göransson, won 3 prices though. Congrats to him.

Sad day

Tonight Olle, my adoptive father that has been like my father almost all my life, died just before 9PM. It was very quick. I talked to the nurse at 6PM and everything was calm then. Just a bit over 2 hours later she called and said he's gotten worse. I asked how and she said his skin changed colour and that he could have 10 minutes or 10 hours left. I was just trying to get to my sister on the phone and ask her if we should go down when the phone rang again just 15 minutes afterwards and it was the nurse telling me that it was over. He went very peacefully and in his sleep. At the end he was given a lot of morphine so he wouldn't be in pain, which he wasn't. I called my sister but we both felt that we already had said our goodbyes and therefore didn't go down to say a last goodbye. He is probably up there somewhere looking down and sensing our feelings. We haven't been able to reach our mother yet and we probably won't tonight so I will tell her when I go there ...
