Rambling on My TT Thursday #5

Allrighty! Thursday come to an end, TJOOHOO--

I didn't cope up to joined the fun last week as I had so hectic week. End of the month isn't funny who's working in financial sector. Tasks was head-over-heels, indeed. When I came home, I felt so sluggish that I just want to relax.

Today, Wednesday, amazes me. My tasks was so calm. Just had some debits to book and then "coffee break" HURRAY!!!

THIS IS WHAT I HAD EARLY THIS EVENING...
GH (great hubby) prepared a tea for 2 while I was in the bath...
He think I'm worth every minute, relax with teacup in hand...
Isn't he cute? Thinking that sweet thought?
Blogging on my warm bed after a warm bath...THEN?

    Det var en romantisk dukning, underbar duk du fick i gåva. Och det var en snäll man som bjöd dig på thé i badet, gulligt.
    Ha det gott vännen

    I love everything Swedish! My great-grandmother came to America when she was a young girl with her sister (parents stayed at home). She must have learned to cook here because she had no recipes to pass down. I have to create my own Swedish heritage!

Having a BALL in our Outdoor cozy lounge...

AT LAST!!! Isn't it an easy life when our weather is not that HOT or too COLD ? ***  Det är så underbart liv när vädret tillåter. Absolut man får njuta det ljuva livet i solen. This is the time when I move our lounge outdoor and just loving to pamper it with my simple way and a dash of a chic style (at least) I feel it. *** En härlig dag sån här årstid. Jag flyttade vardagsrummet i uteverandan och den älskar jag. En enkel stil med en liten chic-touch! Here is my new outdoor LOUNGE!!!   Me & GH went for a morning walk (as always)   Preparing for a cozy outdoor lounge... I move the buffé table and gathered my treasures...  I gathered all my pensies in my galvanized tray... Cotton cookie holder from Malta with a St. John's cross My wrought cloche which I wanted to rust but still long way to go...  Mini grill? GH asked! Guess NOT! Don't you like it?   This corner will be a drink corner and ready to serve us... GH cho

Hopefully, dear sis will adore as Mum does. Then, my new life started when I marry GH and move to Stockholm, Sweden 25 yrs ago. I know my love of kitchen/tables gadgets, i.e. household utensils, deep in my heart. It was already forseen by many of our friends--- my pedantic way and the love of a house to make it a home. I thank you Mum for that. It is true the saying " what we had experienced from our childhood, is what we get when we have our own" ? Well, when GH mother passed away 2 decades ago, GH inherite
