The first semla (the first two actually) of 2012. Mardi gras is coming up, this is what every Swede eats on that day.

This was always my favourite day growing up, fat Tuesday – what could be better?

Hi. Just got back home. Went to the cinema with Mickey, we watched The girl with the dragon tattoo. Such a great movie, a must see! The Swedish version is amazing too and so I thought this Americanized version wouldn’t be as good but it definitely was. Great actors too.

I have officially started war against winter, today I brought out the heavy guns – my disco moonboots! Bring it!

chocolate cheesecake – wow!

Sunday feels like Tuesday

Hi everyone, I got home from work a little while ago. I’m talking to Scandal S on Skype – we’re planning my birthday which is coming up (Feb 17th). I’m trying to convince her to come to Sthlm to celebrate it with me, it will be no fun without my real Scandal Beauty Partner in Crime! I’m feeling so cold all the time so I sat at work with my hat and scarf on the entire day – heating anyone?

A funny thing happened today: I was at work, texting a friend in New York. Then he asked what company I work for and all of a sudden he called from New York, to Sweden to my company and managed to get to me so I got his call. Haha hilarious. Best time at work ever.

Healthy Snack for Healthy Tora

So, seeing how I’ve started my new fabulous lifestyle of being healthy I have to stop my candy eating. Oh my God, just writing that gave me the worst cravings. Haha.

Ok, so this is obviously going to be tough. Anyhow, I felt like eating something and this is the time I usually go down and buy candy (we have to stop using that word). Instead I cut some carrrots and mushrooms, dip them in soya sauce and voilà! A healthy snack.

-20C I love my country

Hi! It was nice being at work again. I found out I finished at 12.15 though and not 18 as I thought. NICE. On my way home I passed a gym, not sure I loved it though but I’ll go there tomorrow before work to try it out!

After work I went home where my brother had three friends visiting and then Elsa and her boyfriend joined in. We always have fun together. Then Elsa, Chris and I went out shopping again. I have to stop it seriously. Just bought a pair of high heels and a cardigan though so I was a good girl!

It definitely does not feel like Saturday today, feels more like a Tuesday. I’ll just chill at home seeing how I’m working tomorrow again.

I wore my cosy, big sweater today again. I can’t help myself it’s SO amazingly comfortable and warm. Today we had -20C!!!

Last shopping spree before it’s back to work

Hi. Today I met Claudia, she had some errands to run and then we went back to my place for lunch. Elsa and her boyfriend who’s here visiting from Luxembourg came by and we went out shopping. I found things I’ve been keeping an eye out for quite a while now; a pair of flat boots to wear at work, a white pair of jeans (not going to wear them now obviously), another turtle neck sweater haha and glittering pj’s! Shopping really makes me happy, it is, for sure, the best therapy. After shopping we had a coffe, then went grocery shopping and now we’re back home. We had dinner and now we’re watching a movie eating candy and ice cream. Tomorrow I’m going to work, feels like I haven’t been there in ages! Good to get back to work.

Oh, and I will sign up at the gym tomorrow after work!

So far so good right? Well it keeps getting worse..

Ok, get ready

Et voilà: Pippi Longstocking on LSD
