My entries of food continues, the other week I had this for lunch.
I met up with mum and we had the same dish. The food is great, mum couldn't finish so she took the rest with her home. But I stuffed myself as much as I could..haha
I couldn't bring it so I decided to eat as much as possible!! Maybe not the best, but it was too delicious to throw away!
It's nice that I can have lunch with mum now and then.
I continue on my shopping spree. I have to say I don't buy that much clothes in Sweden anymore. So I don't think it's so bad. Anyway, a friend of my sent this and I was like..I have to have it!
It seems rather popular in Sweden, and I'm so happy I got a hold of one!
My darling said I looked good in it so it's good!!
The material is nothing special then again it was also cheap. You get what you pay for!
Anyway I'm happy, I cannot wait until I can wear it!
DESCRIPTION
Gently tailored biker jacket in imitation leather with quilted sections on the shoulders and at the cuffs, collar with a tab and press-stud, a diagonal zip at the front, zipped side pockets and a zip at the cuffs. Lined.
I don't think I have put on my foot in this restaurant chain for 6-10 years!!
And the reason has been the price and the quality of the food. It was pretty bad last time I was there. Anyway, S wanted to go so I said fine! And I was happily surprised!
I chose a bowl with pulled pork and beans. It also came with a tortilla and salad.
I think I will actually go here again! Now that I have discovered it's OK!!
Last Friday, we did not only go shopping at Mio, we got a bedspread and two candle holders.
We also bought some delicious take-away.
In the morning we had decided to eat hamburger, but wasn't sure from where. In the end we went to this small kiosk on Sveavägen which we have passed for quite a few times.
I had googled it earlier and it got good reviews, so the lot fell for that specific place.
We had to wait 30 min!! Sounds like a lot for just a burger and fries. But when we got home and took our first bites, we totally understood why. The man who made them did it with a lot of care, this is not like a McDonalds meal. This is so much more!
These days as I have torn my wrist I have been given other kinds of exercises when working out with my PT.
Last Thursday I had to do this, I was tied to a bungee jump rope and had to force myself around the floor to move weights between them. Forward, Backwards and Sideways! It might look a bit silly but it's way harder than you think! I had a fun time although my legs almost died!!
I'm happy my PT is able to find other ways for me to exercise!
Wow.. he has a solo song?
To be honest, I used to be a vivid fan of Siwon.. but these days, nahh.. I donno.
And I sure didn't know about this!!
He's surely a better actor than singer ^^
I have been thinking about this.. should I or not?
But here it is, for Valentines my darling gifted me with this, I had joked and said I wanted it. However I didn't think he actually would get it for me!!
1. It's not cheap
2. We are saving money for our upcoming Asia travel
3. It's not like I couldn't get it myself.
...
The list can go on forever.
But I'm so overjoyed for this. I wore it on our Valentines date. It's absolutely gorgeous.
Like I said last week, I feel like the luckiest girl alive. He makes me happy every day!!
I love having him next to me!!!!
I got it before the actual day, I mentioned it... And, I got it in gray not black, however I couldn't find a picture online.

This video poped up on my YT feed. I fell in love with things song instantly.
Therefor I want to share it. This is Helena Paparizou's new song called Μισή Καρδιά / Misi Kardia, which means Half heart.
We rented movies the other day, I got to chose one of them and I chose this one - Woman in Gold. I have wanted to see this one for quite some time, even tried to get my darling to see it at the movies. But no luck! Anyway, we both found the story interesting, and even my darling liked it although he first thought it was going to be a chick flick. I guess they might have changed some bits of the story, but it made me think of both today's situation with all the refugees coming to Sweden. And also back to history and WWII. I think it's hard to imagine what they had to go through. The world should never forget!!

Plot
In a series of flashbacks throughout the film, Maria Altmann recalls the arrival of Nazi forces in Vienna, and the subsequent suppression of the Jewish community and the looting and pillaging conducted by the Nazis against Jewish families. Seeking to escape before the country is completely shut off, Maria Altmann and members of her family attempt to flee to the United States. While Altmann and her husband are successful in their escape, she is forced to abandon her parents in Vienna.
In the present, living in Los Angeles, a now elderly and widowed Altmann attends the funeral for her sister. She discovers letters in her sister's possession dating to the late 1940s, which reveal an attempt to recover artwork owned by the Altmann family that was left behind during the family's flight for freedom and subsequently stolen by the Nazis. Of particular note is a painting of Altmann's aunt, Adele Bloch-Bauer, now known in Austria as the "Woman in Gold".
Altmann enlists the help of Randol Schoenberg, the grandson of her close friends, but a lawyer with little experience, to make a claim to the art restitution board in Austria. Reluctantly returning to her homeland, Altmann discovers that the country's minister and art director are unwilling to part with the painting, which they feel has become part of the national identity. Altmann is told that the painting was in fact legitimately willed to the gallery by her aunt. Upon further investigation by her lawyer and Austrian journalist Hubertus Czernin, this claim proves to be incorrect, as the alleged will is invalid due to the fact that her aunt did not own the painting in question, the artist's fee having been paid by her uncle. Schoenberg files a challenge with the art restitution board, but it is denied and Altmann does not have the money needed to challenge the ruling. Defeated, she and Schoenberg return to the United States...

I have passed the place many times, but not really taken a notice. Anyway I was happily surprised by this place. And the food was great. It was lucky the server said what was in it, he almost killed me with the dessert, luckily I didn't taste before he had told us!
Anyway, for main I had rain deer and some mixed veggies. And for dessert - fudge and ice cream.
