Cocktail Mood @ D´Box On New Year's Eve 2014

I was head-over heels...

I planned to have a coctail type of celebration this year as I know it will be so stressful at work when most of my colleagues got the winter sickness. I don't have toddlers, so, what can a mother with grown-up kids like me say? "Just get up and work" to help. Does it matters? It matters if you have some plans. However, this time, it works for me, in a way.

But, doing a coctail is not as easy as the other meals. Cocktails have so many steps, many ingredients and so on and so forth. This time, I was so happy both kiddos were home, did their job to help Mum & Dad. It was a wonderful time, after all--- having them with a bit stressed Mum to finished in time. It was funny when D´Nics told me "CHILL".
*Join Us on our Simple Celebration*
So here we are @ D´Box with my Swedish Family...
Sorry for a blurry pix! 
When our guest came everybody got busy.

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
