Happy Easter to you all!

This is so Swedish around the time for Easter - twigs with colored feathers. These are from a flower stall in Stockholm that sold them some day's ago.


With these photos I hope you will have a wounderful Easter with family and friends. Or all by yourself if you prefer that!



Red tulips - love them! These are on my table just now.

Shop's in Thailand & India

The first photo is from a 7 Eleven store in Thailand, in Kamala Beach in the tourist island of Phuket.


There you could found a hot sandwich and a cold drink for a little less than 1 Euro. And a lot of other stuff that you need on a daily basis.


And here you have a shopping street in India, in Goa, a completely diffrent place, but you still had a lot of options to shop.

Hands on cross

My late mother Gunvor made some amazing art in her life, this one is one of them.


Love this sculpture with the hands - united on the cross. Helping, caring and loving hands. Is is just what we all need in these days!!


My glass collection

I love old things, like this collection of glass carafes that I placed on an antique mirror tray in the dining room.


Some are torn here and there, but I use them anyhow, when I decant wine for example.

Faces on the wall

My mother Gunvor made a lot of self portraits during the years, from her youth to some more recent.


She put them up on a wall before her death some years ago. I left them there as a memory of her.

A dessert...

Last week I was in Copenhagen, Denmark, with my colleges from work, to work. But we had a really nice time too, we ate at the trendy Ködbyens Fiskebar.



We ate mussles, fish and then this dessert with chocolate ice cream and much more. Looks lie a piece of art to me.

Candle now inside the house

Just some days ago I wrote about my late mother Gunvors art - this time a little building that was made for a candle.


Here it is again, the house is made of ceramic and glass. Now with a candle inside.


And if you have not seen it before I show it again, in day light.

My cat again

Here you have two new pics of my cat Kisse, he is looking out of the window from my workspace.


He prefer to just look out these cold days, when he goes out is just for a very short time.


And here is one more of Kisse, at my window, as he is just now.

A home for your candles

This is a lovely building made by my mother in ceramic and glass, it is made like a candle holder.


You just lift it up and plce one of them on the plate. And then you have a very nice piece of art - by my late mother Gunvor.

Just for cats

Just now it's so icy outside that only cat's and dog's seems to appreciate. We have cold nights - below 14 degrees Celcius - and really nice sunny days.


But it is really hard to walk in the sun without falling, but you have to be outside today, you just have to seek up the sun.


Today in Sweden, mars 10, 2013. Ice and snow and a lot of sun.

Art in the window

My mother Gunvor's art is really everywhere, here one piece of her ceramic work is in this window.


It is another one that is made of her inspiration from Mother Earth. It is a really big seedpod.
Made a page on Facebook with my mothers things:

Icy outside

It is very icy outside now here in Sweden. At least where I stay, close to the airport of Stockholm. So it is very difficult to walk.


But it is getting better, I hope it will rain away soon. But I give you something much nicer to look at, my mothers apples.


I have the apples in ceramic outside my house when it's summer. They are so lovely.

Dinner at Cape Sienna

These are photos from last August, when I wisited Thailand for the fifth time, and Hotel Cape Sienna in Kamala Beach in the island of Phuket. For the second time.



On the first photo you see all the different startes, entrés and snacks that where includes in the buffé.



 Here you can see the chef grilling the stuff you want "a la minute", just by the poolside. Meat, poultry or seafood. Your choice.



And here is the desserts. Much more than in the pic, just a few - like choccolate mousse, créme brulee and pannacotta with fresh strawberries.
