Lunch with friends


 My friends Rubina, Annika and me
Yesterday I had lunch with three good friends. All of them friends from the Rheumatic association.

We met at Ingvor's place, a wonderful house, in beautiful summer weather.
I came earlier so that we two could plan our road trip next week to Helsingborg.
After a while came Annika who is the chair woman in our association in Stockholm. Me, Annika and Ingvor is part of our working committe in the association in Stockholm. We are 4 in the committee but one couldn't come because she's on holiday. It was so nice to sit down and talk, laugh and just relax together.
After a while our friend Rubina joined us. She had been cooking the meal which was Indian (or maybe Pakistan) dishes. I don't know the name of things but I think one was called Dahl (or something like that). Good but very spicy.
I had made Västerbotten pie and a big salat with feta cheese, avocado, salat, tomatoes, cucumber and more... And to that I had made a vinagraitte.
We had a wonderful time eating all these good things. Rubina I hadn't seen for a couple of years so it was so nice to meet her again.

 My beautiful hollyhocks
I also love my hollyhocks! I so wanted to plant them but Hasse was against it so I just went out and bought them. Now he thinks they are gorgeous! I bought 4 plants and they are so high now and the flowers are so many.

 The front garden
This is what you are greated of when you come to my house :-)
Hasse is the best gardener! I just pick what I want to have, buy it and then he takes care of them and make them bloom like this. He really has got what we call "green fingers". He does an amazing job caring for them and he's in the garden every day taking care of them. But he also gets a lot of praise even from people just walking by :-)

So today is a middle day. I have to call the cemetary to book the time we will be placing the urn with mother's ashes in the grave. It will probably be at the beginning of August.

Then I will pack, again, for tomorrow we are once again going to "our" hotel to spend the weekend. This time it's my prize from the cooking competition at work (I might have said that before). That should be very nice!

Next week is full of activities except for Monday when I have nothing planned. Tuesday I'm going to have my mammogram done.
Wednesday I will have mother-son day with Jonas. I have planned things but I can't tell you since it will be a surprise for Jonas :-)

 My friend Ingvor in her kitchen
Thursday I will be doing the estate inventory after Mom with a lawyer and directly after that I go to my friend Ingvor and we start our road trip to Helsingborg where we will be staying for the weekend to go to the Helsingborg festival and on Friday night we will enjoy H.E.A.T playing there! I hope we will have time to see some places when we are there like Sofiero castle.

Well that's about all for now. I will post photos and write here as well as on FB and Instagram.

Take care everyone and have a wonderful day!!

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...
