When I saw this I fell instantly in love with it. I really want to get it except that I already have quite a few mixing bowls and how many mixing bowls does one need? Well… ok… you can never have too many. It would definitely be a splurge item. But check out how cool it is!!!
I have this urge to eat chocolate until I get sick. I don’t really know why I want to do this and I’m not too sure if it would be a good thing to do.
I’ve started a bit of sewing and decided that I’d take apart my hexacomb cardigan since it wasn’t going anywhere in the last year.
I’m hoping that I’ll be able to get back into the motions and do some stuff that usually makes me smile.
Don’t know why it’s harder this year to get into things. I suppose my schedule hasn’t been as available as the previous years but I seriously need to do something creative because this lack of it is killing me.
Fredrik’s home for a few days before taking off for the UK tour.
I keep wanting to do something. Something creative. But I’m feeling pretty empty.
I tried to do some embroidery the other day. Ended up feeling like it was a chore. I hate that feeling.
I can hardly write but my head feels awfully full.
God I hate this time of the year.
I collect vintage Pyrex things. At least I’d like to think that I collect vintage Pyrex things. I have 3 sets of the nesting mixing bowls, a lidded casserole dish and some pie dishes. I used to have this super adorable individual casserole dish but that exploded in the microwave.
I just discovered these.
They’re salt and pepper shakers. AND THEY ARE ADORABLE!
It’s a bit hard to find Pyrex items here in Sweden. Most of the vintage stuff is made in the US. There are some English made things. I was lucky enough to find a pink pie dish in a Swedish equivalent of Salvation Army.
I’d like to get a butter dish. Preferably in the Amish print. But shipping to Sweden from the US usually costs an arm and a leg.
In the recent years I’ve noticed that I get hungry more often when it’s cold out. More so since I moved to Sweden where we don’t keep our flat quite as warm as my parents’ place. I grew up being able to wear shorts and t-shirt around the house in the winter. I know it’s not very eco-friendly but we like being comfortable.
I thought I might be the only one but apparently not.
If you didn’t know already, I love Nigella Lawson. I think she’s fantastic. I also love her books and line of kitchen things. I was just browsing through the assortment.
If I could… I’d love to have the following…
We ARE getting a house. If someone wants to get us house warming gifts… you know what to get! ;)
I’ve noticed that in the recent years, I’ve started to dislike autumn. The blahs just hit me extra hard around autumn in the last few years.
Today I was thinking about why I could be feeling like this and it kind of dawned on me. Perhaps it’s the dreading of time going by. But then I thought about it some more and I realized that it’s the idea that another summer has passed by and I’m still as craptacular as I was last autumn.
Since I finished at Seneca, I haven’t had much to look forward to in the autumn. York University was a bust. Mälardalen Högskolan was a complete disappointment. This autumn is going all right but it’s nothing that’s making me think, “Oh yay! I can’t wait!”
I need that SOMETHING.
Hopefully next autumn will bring me that SOMETHING. If all goes as planned, I could start dental school next year. Then I’ll definitely have something really awesome to be excited about. Oh the learning. It will be so rewarding.

I think it’s fantastic. She’s on her way to do some great stuff.
