Flower ice cream

I have seen these online a couple of times, and in Malaga I found a ice cream place that makes ice cream flowers. I chose three different ones - caramel, mango and raspberry.
Kinda expensive for Spain and ice cream but very delicious... and of course PRETTY!

I wish we'd have these in Sweden, I think it would be a big seller.
Also, when looking when they made it, it didn't look that complicated.

Churros time



Churros is a must if visiting Spain!
I was able to try it twice. I have only tired it at carnivals or theme parks before so it was very exciting to try "the real deal".

The picture on top was from Friday morning, cannot complain... breakfast in the sun!
The churros was kinda small and a bit soggy despite being small but the chocolate was awesome!
So I didn't mind the sogginess as they turned out beautiful when dipping in the chocolate.

The pics below were from the final day before heading to the airport.
These are 3 churros!!! GIGANTIC ones, this is the most famous place in Malaga to serve it.
And no I did not eat all of them by myself, K ate half, After finishing these I had nothing else until 7 pm! The fat in them made me feel full for the rest of the day, and of course the chocolate helped that out too. ^^

Paella lunch


What would a visit to Spain without paella be?
Then again, it seems they like to put carrots in it so it was a bit more tricky than I thought!
Anyway, we found a place in the sun at the Malaga Harbour!
At this place we could also get individual plates, a lot of food for a very good price.
I chose a mixed one - with both seafood and meat. And to drink tinto de verano (red wine and fanta lemon) To me the paella was a bit salty but I do not eat a lot of salt so it could be me. K ordered a seafood one and thought it was a bit salty too. Anyway, it was a great lunch, I'd really come here again!


[스마트홈] Mr. & Mrs. Smart



Korean phone company SK Telecom presented this video a few weeks back!
Yes, S. Korea is super technological! Almost too much?
I found this very funny and probably where a lot of households in Korea are headed!

Do you want a home like this? ^^

Malaga Market


If only I could buy veggies and fruits like this.
This is from the market in Malaga! Everything looked so fresh and delicious. I so want to go back here! I love shopping at markets.






I tried coconut water in a bottle, worst thing ever!
K told me to try this... THIS IS what it should taste like, all other bottles can just be removed, that's NOT coconut water... this is the real deal!!

Enamel Discs Bracelet


As the news dropped they MJ is stopping this brand, I had to get my hands on at least one bracelet.
I have several earrings, so I wanted one of these. When I stood in the shop I got anxious as I wanted 3 different ones, but in the end I decided on this "simple" one. It will fit several occasions.
Still... if they have more in stock next month, who knows... I might get one more? ^^
(I know...never satisfied..lol)


€1 Strawberries


On my first day in Malaga my friend took me to the market!
And i found a lot of strawberries, we usually eat them in the summer, and they looked delicious so I had to buy. Also, they were super cheap so I said to myself... they can be either awesome or disgusting! I told the lady I wanted strawberries worth a €1. And did I get a lot for that amount...
I tried one immediately when we came home, and they were so sweet and delicious!!! 
Worth every single penny!!!! I wanted to take them home, While being there it made me realize how awesome it is to live in a country that is warmer during the "winter season".


Later I will show you more photos from the market...!!
I ALWAYS want to buy my fruits and veggies there.

Sunset in Malaga




I'm back...
The other day we went up on the roof of the AC Mariott in downtown Malaga and took a glass of cava. It was a great experience and the cava was cheap.

A wonderful view, and great company, a great visit if you go to Malaga!! The view is spectacular!

캐릭터 마스크

I got some new a few weeks ago.
I saw a picture online and asked friend of mine if she had the time to get me a few.
Kindly enough she got a lots ^^
This time I got monkey, sheep, tiger, dragon, panda, and Santa!
To be honest.. I didn't know they also had a pig!
If they still have it in April, I'm gonna get one for my darling hahaha

Anyway, as most know.. I love using facial masks and especially during the winter time as it's so dry here! My skin is like paper, so why not have some fun and not only look like a ghost ^^

Sunlight

I donno if I can call them quick or not, but I think they are.
I mean Sweden hasn't even started yet.
Ireland has chosen their song for the upcoming Eurovision Song Contest, and it's no other than former Westlife member Nicky Byrne who is singing.
The song is called Sunlight. What can I say, I'm surprised to hear him sing again..lol
Second, a typical song for Ireland?! And listening to it makes me think of 1D ^^
It's gonna be fun to read how it goes.. I will be in Korea/Japan when it airs so I won't be able to see it.

Anyway, here it is.. ENJOY!

SMAP is disbanding?!


I woke up to media outlets reports that SMAP is disbanding.

According to news, the group's 58-year-old female manager who is often described as their 'foster parent' has resigned from the position as director from J Dream, Inc., a sub company of Johnny's & Associates, inc.. And she will also be leaving Johnny & Associates, Inc. during next month. It is also reported that Nakai Masahiro, Inagaki Goro,Kusanagi Tsuyoshi, and Katori Shingo have showed their intentions of leaving the agency with her, while Kimura Takuya decided to stay with the company. Not sure if it means they are going to go to the same company she goes to...?!


Due to this Johnny's released a statement today Jan 13. In the statement it said as there were reports regarding some SMAP members leaving and their manager's resignation from a directors position. It is true that we are having consultation and negotiations about the matter, however as of right now, they cannot provide a detailed answer.



I wonder how this will end....!?

Details in life


I went to my parents the other week and my mum made this delicious shrimp sandwich for dinner!
Absolutely DELICIOUS!!
Mum surely knows how to make good food!


On my way home

I blanked out the registration, courtesy to the owner...
Anyway, I saw this on my way home the other day, very cute ^^
I saw another car with another kind of "smiley", not sure if the owner wanted a gigantic p****s on his car, but at least someone else thought of making this one... MUCH better ^^

Japan Keeps This Defunct Train Station Running for Just One Passenger

"The train makes only two stops—one when a lone high-school student leaves for school and the other when she returns."

I think this story is like a fairy tale!
All I can say, this could only happen in Japan!
It's an awesome story... go here to read it!

Japan Keeps This Defunct Train Station Running for Just One Passenger

Japan Rail pass or not?


I already made up my mind, or at least that is what I thought!
But now I start to question it... Should we travel outside Tokyo this time or not?
I always use this pass when I go to Japan because it is very convenient to get around ALL OVER Japan. However this time I said.. let's just stay in Tokyo and it's surrounding. But the other day I read the article about the new Hakodate/Hokkaido Shinkasen line. It would make it possible to reach Hokkaido within 4 hours from Tokyo. So a one night and two days in Hokkaido.

We'll see how it will end up...
