Chez Larsson

366: Day 296-302

The roses I got are still going strong. even as I write this on Sunday.

 

If last week was unexciting this week was better. Martha follows me on Pinterest! But wait, it gets better.

 

Look what I got in the mail! remember when I got all the Martha goodies? Turned out there was a legal issue with me entering in the competition because I’m not a US resident and they were sorry for the confusion and sent me a consolation gift. How sweet is that? With all this you’d think I’d be on Martha’s Christmas card list this year, haha!

 

First snow! I couldn’t get a good photo outside because it started snowing late at night but then Wille called me when he went into the bathroom to brush his teeth. Snow!

 

My man.

 

Twice a year we have a large dumpster in our neighborhood where we can drop off garden debris which is so great. Wille and I cleared the back yard on Friday night and I went to check on the frosty result on Saturday morning  in my pj’s. Still some leaves to fall off the apple tree but I’ll just add them to the compost as they fall.

 

My friend Sanna and I had planed to got to a retro fair this weekend but it turned out to be cancelled so instead we went to Moderna Museet and saw the Picasso vs. Duchamp and the Wolfgang Tillmans exhibitions. We weren’t impressed but we did spend an awfully long time in the museum shop.

That was quite an eventful week for a change.

Miss Mini had been at the gym.

 

Mini and Bonus waiting for seconds at dinner.

 

I treated myself to some hot pink roses.

 

This is about as Halloweeny as it will get at my house this year.

 

It rains.

 

Wille’s Saturday morning breakfast.

 

Spent a couple of hours on Sunday getting the front and back yard ready for Winder. It looks so bare now.

All in all a very unexciting week.

366: Day 282-288

I haven’t been very lucky with wallpaper choices in this house. Now there are some really cool new wallpapers out though and I think one of these Arne Jacobsen ones would go well somewhere.

 

Miss Mini looking through the ivy on the windowsill.

 

Bonus having a snooze on the living room sofa.

 

Evening sky across the park.

 

Thirsty girl.

 

And here’s another one of Mini.

 

It’s fall y’all!

366: Day 275-281

Starting the week off with a view from my desk towards the dining area and kitchen. Can you spot Mini?

 

Baking Wille’s favorite Chocolate cake. Sorry, I’m not allowed to share the recipe. Well kept Larsson family secret.

 

Love how my plastic Kate Spade bags casts a see through shadow.

 

Leaving Stockholm behind to visit my mom in the south.

 

Taking a breather at a Helsingborg Café after our little shopping spree.

 

Checked off mom’s to-do list which included some scraping and painting.

 

Someone requested Skåne landscape photos but I’m afraid this was the best I could do on the train back home.

It’s nice to be away but it’s always so good to be back home.

366: Day 268-274

Hello! Here I am late at night all tousled up after falling asleep in my armchair. Red shot eyes and all.

 

I have had requests to see what it looks like when I haul stuff home without a car. It can look like this.

 

How weird and wonderful are these? Irresistible that’s for sure.

 

How appropriate that this iPhone shot is very blurry because I’ve just come to realize that I need reading glasses. Sucks.

 

Dinner.

 

Off to the annual antiques fair with my friend Sanna. Sooo many goodies.

 

Busy Sunday so I put the alarm on in the morning and headed out to plant tulips, fertilized the lawn and reorganize the deck for winter. Also did a bunch of fun crafts inside later on that I’ll be sharing soon.

Have a good week! I’m off to my mom’s on Thursday so for one there will be no posts on Thursday and Friday and also I won’t have great internet access and wont be able to answer comments or e-mails much. Just so you know.
