Ordered§:-)---Me like---♥♥♥

***********************************************

AFTER LUNCH, D´NICS went home...

Another week-end for my preparation on FD at home. It was a lil bit stressy but doing the things I love? nothing can stop me . Luckily enough, GH & lil Liz enjoyed my passion and helped me sort out the things I want to lay on our TABLE this Sunday evening.

CHECK IT OUT, LADIES?
GH (great hubby) worth celebrating his day...
We'll start the pitcher. Italian ceramic & purchased in Sorrento, Italy
Welcome drink, Martini/glasses Kosta Boda crystals
I prepared the battery-powered S&P shakers, for MAN sake §:-)
Flatwares is Carlström silver, purchased with my first salary 23 yrs. ago
Centerpiece is from India, zink bird's cage, fabergé eggs inside
An upper shot...
Dinner set are Höganäs, Swedish ceramic, table napkins s cotton from NK
DINNER

Yummy... GH really appreciated the preparation for his day. He so love the dinner. I prepared a very simple recipe but he mentioned many times that it's a "sumptous" dinner. It's a pork noisette (compositioned) by my own way. I made a sauce of dijon mustard & basilica with a lil whisk of bacon. I prepared tagliatelle pasta for a change and at D´Box, green sallad is always a MUST in our table. Still Höganäs set here as you can see.
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
EVENING SHOTS...

Smudge toffee cake (own recipe) Kosta Boda crystals. Can you see the cloché? I used my Kosta Boda crystal flower vase as a cloché rester, just to make sure that I don't make a mess on my tablecloth. Dajeerling tea purchased in Fortum & Mason, honey purchased in Greece a month ago. Tea mugs are also from Höganäs. I have a set of 16 from the smallest to the largest piece.
GH is cutting his cake with his great grandmother's silver cake slicer

He really is worth celebrating his day & hope he enjoyed it.
Hope you all enjoy the Swedish way...

    We had FD last Sunday.
    I don't understand how you have energy to do all this beauty - table and food. Looks amazing!
    Have you thought to start a business - to help other people who are too busy to make this kind of beauty?!

    Greetings from -3 Helsinki - the first day when it's this cold but sunny!
    Have a good week ahead!

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

Inherited--- A Vintage and Delicate Treasure

A sofisticated to my eyes... When I was young, I know what we had on top of my family's table. I don't really care what kind of treasures we had? I just remember that my grandfather had a very fine china set and unfortunately ended to a wrong greedy grandchildren, my first cousin's wife. Mum inhereted some of the set and as I recall she adored them till her last breath. If I am still living in The Philippines, I would love to keep them by myself. 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
