A Way Too Long Of Hibernation...

Summer day and 1st week of July 2015

Time flies too fast, seems just a wink of an eye. Yeah! Too way to long to for a blogger. There are so many excuses and the headlight is "the changes of my lifestyle". Isn't it daring? But that's life sometimes. 

Gee, I don't even know where to start?

Well, first of all, I thank you to all my followers (even not too many), to my readers and my visitors who were sending messages and was thinking if I am not coming back blogging. Thanks for the thoughtful thoughts.

Yes, secondly... I am on leave from my work and that's where my life start changes when I decided to study again (after many years working). I was burnt out from work and I must admit that, it is almost too late to realized that I am living nearly on the edge. Working and studying are not a good combination either. I guarantee that. It makes me more sickier. As an adult student, is not an easy task either. It is a very hectic and so intensive. No minutes spilled. I am enjoying being in this stage, though. However, I am not so sure what will be the outcome. I am still in between feelings? I am walking my small but positive steps to reach my goals.


LoL §:-)

Thirdly, I am changing the way I am living, i.e. "foodwise". I decided that I am a "flexitarian". I call myself one "flexitarian" or "semi-vegetarian". I have given up red meat for health reasons and for environmental reasons. I only eat free-range or organic animals and animal products. Many of my friends asked if "how many times I eat meat or white meat?". There's no answer to that. If I feel like eating, then, I go for it. There are so many good things around us, within reach. Just open our creativity minds and realize. I even ended up creating and composting my very easy recipes for healthy ways. Hope this will come to a book form. Keep your fingers cross.


Some of my own recipes...
This is one simple breakfast, Chia pudding. I used coco milk
A seafood tacos, for dinner. No big drama in here.
I had my pineapple and banana shake while reading Finace magazine.
Salmon with carrots sallad clubsandwich, a good lunch, make a tummy happy

Fouthly, Sometimes, people think I am going weird, §:-) or am I just following the trending flow? The more I get older, the more I am not thinking just myself. This time, in my part, I am thinking humanity and the universe. I been very interested of the "sustainability", the eco, the social and and the economical systems. My family is growing. The new generations. Not just my family, without the whole or entire universe. What is left when we don't care about anybody?
Greeny in a dreary day... can't be better


DaBox is still on the go. Our granddaughter is growing and she is adorable. She celebrated her 1st birthday with a blast, as she was born as GH, August 24th. We had a great garden/crayfish party. Yearly traditional gatherings. Our best friends from USA both FA's came and Andy a businessman, joined the fun.

This is what I am striving for. My family is growing. Heart them so...

Meanwhile, at DaBox...
 
 
 

Well, this is how it looks like in our lounge. It seems Autumn feelings with my new purchased tablelamps. A very trendy lamps which I found in a very cheap store. But who can resist? We are trendy. As long it works in my home and if the price is right? Then, GO!!!

Hope you still remember the "Chatter Girl" at DaBox and hopefully, this blog will be freshen up, soonest.

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
