This Week

macarong.se


Lovely week, not for my throat because it has began hurting (a cold?), I know exactly who it is from...*sigh*
Anyway, my morning has consisted of a lot of phonecalls, breakfast has yet reached my stomach and it's almost lunchtime. And no, this is not a st*pid diet. I just haven't got the time yet. Trust me, I'm the girl that eats at least 5times a day.

So what is happening this week?
I can reveal that I am signing a contract for a new work! Hopefully by tomorrow or Wednesday *yay* I cannot really tell you which company yet, but I will tell you all soon!

My last phone call to Macarong (above, they have divine Macarons) also went well, they are interested in collaborating with my recent project, which you can see here. The Facebook-page is not 100% done yet, but it should be in the end of this month. We are getting near and soon ready for opening, which is great news and fun since I've been doing this since last September-month. We only have some final touches left, which is also the fun part: interior design and decoration. 

So I have a couple of meetings left, some awaiting phone calls and hopefully (and a bit sad, because the part as a buyer is really fun and exciting), this will be my last week of flexible work time *laughs* But I cannot wait until beginning to work with some more routine.  

Oh, and I also managed to book in a date for an Oslo-weekend in March (which will be fun fun fun) and next week this year's first wine&cheese night with some friends. I can sense that this month is going to be LOVELY.


But first, breakfast.

This picture of Andy (Style Scrapbook) is lovely!
She is really rockin' that H&M mustard yellow one piece, it's quite funny because her piece seems so much shorter than mine, but the fact is that it's my legs that are shorter...

Note. the lovely vintage Moschino belt!

H&M Spring 2011



Two items from H&M's spring collection. Love the boots! does someone know when they will hit the stores? I really love the quality and design of shoes from H&M. I have a pair of several years old black ankle boots with a zipper that is still alive and rockin' from H&M. Although Topshop and Zara also maked amazing heels.  

The color-blocked top is also very cute! By the look of the tag I guess that it will only be available in Stockholm and Gothenburg (the Trend line). So I will hope that they will launch it on their online shop soon :)

But until then...no shopping for me...because somedays ago I got myself a new skirt for new year's eve, a new black/white top (I'll try to upload a pic, or just check it out here) and a new suit jacket for work.

last supper of year 2010


During New Year's Eve we had split into three groups for the dinner course. Two persons in each group. 
Our hosting couple E and M made this delicious soup and grissini (grossini?)


Me and Maria made risotto with smoked salmon, mascarpone, caviar and crayfish. 
It was actually our first time making risotto, but we somehow managed *laughs*



Dessert-team made a very rich chocolate cake with raspberry and mint. It was a lovely combination.

Happy New Year!
I hope that you all had a lovely New Year's Eve, because I had a spectacular evening! 
We began at a friend's home with a three course dinner. Everything was just perfect, I have to thank our hosting couple E and M, lot's of applause for both of you! 

We then ended up playing a guessing game all night long, it was so fun. 
Yesterday really made me realize how much I have missed to celebrate with my friends and family. Yesterday was friend's day, today is family day.

A box wine shaped like a handbag, ladies (and gents) this is how all the box wines should look like! *laughs*
