A fragile thingy on our 1st TTT

First TTT of 2013!

I hope that each and everyone of you, ladies had a wonderful and great time together with your dear ones during the hightime season of the year. I been travelling (bloggie world) and saw that you had a blast and saw that your wishes came true. If you asked mine? I did had a great time and the wish came true too.

Isn't it that we will start our posts, sharing the highlight of our year, right? But, I decided not to. I stay as what my blog is. I like to be me. 

Here is the first post on my TTT...

As you all know (once again), lil Missy was home on her sem break for 3 weeks. D´Box become a mess when both kiddos came to visit us. As a mother and the housekeeper, it was a bit of household chores and I won't let them do the chores (most of the time) as they were here to enjoy their holidays. You know children. It doesn't like what I or we had during our time. But we can't tell them the way we had coz it is a new era (in their world). I let them enjoy, a lil discussions. Lil Missy was more the chef and it was fun to see her grow up a young woman.

Yesterday, she went back to her dorm in the university campus. School starts again and a new hard life being student begin. That's what I call life. I'd missed my university life. School days and classmates were the best that happened to me, in a way.

So, this was the TS we had or I had set for our lunch. Lil Missy requested a sushi. So, GH ordered after our Sunday mass. It was really a blessed day. A hard time to part from her but I would never let her stay with us just becoz for my heart sake. She have to grow from my wings and need to fly of her own. The survillance is still there though §;-)

ANYWAYS HERE WAS OUR TIME TOGETHER...
Cotton tablecloth is a dear treasure. A gift from a good Maltese friends



I started with the pizza plate as my chargers then main plate & sallad/dessert plates

 Just more shots that I can't resist not to post for you to share...







Hope the light will lead her path in her successful life as a brain scientist.

    Ha det gott

    Your all-glass table is just spectacular! Why does this seem very swedish, all this sparkling glass and white? I love it. I used to have some glass dinner service, but I think I sold it. Now I wish I had it back!

    How fun and gorgeous. The sushi looks like pieces of art on that beautiful background. Everything is perfect in just white and glass and the angels are wonderful. How great to have kids home for the holidays. It gets crazy, yes, but it is so worth it.

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
