Oreo - Red velvet

My friend also sent these and some other things, first off are these, Red Velvet oreos.

However they were a disappointment, I only tasted Oreo, not the red velvet.

But in all, happy to try :)

I mean nothing back an oreo is an oreo right ^^

AUDREY - CRYSTAL (GOLD)

I've become completely hooked on the Swedish brand Lily And Rose.

I could buy half of the collection to be honest.

But there are a lot of things I want so, I had to stick with a few.

I can already say that I will be wearing Lily And Rose jewelry on my wedding day.

I already bought earrings and bracelet! I will post more about them closer to the Wedding.

Today I will post the bracelet I got for other occasions, I already wore it to a party and I got very nice compliments for it! This one is called Audrey and comes in Gold and Copper/Rose.

I bought the one in gold :)

I'm very pleased with it, I didn't notice the crystals that much until I put it on.. 

I LOVE IT ^^

Bargain or?

It was kinda interesting. I thought this most Outlet stuff were older season's things.
I didn't know they were "totally different" items or "made for Outlets only".
Maybe not all but many, I mean then why blame people for buying copies?
Many brands make their "cheaper" versions, similar to what a copy cat does however these are "official". Maybe I'm the slow one about this.
But I really thought these are the "left overs", nothing wrong just there are new models in town.
Then again, to me, I rather pay less for a cheaper model as I like to change my things, I mean it's not like I have one bag or one shirt only in my closet.

Oh well.. I will still visit my outlets :)

Korean fastfood

The other week we made Korean fastfood for dinner... ddeokbokki and kimbap aka spicy rice cakes and seaweed rolls.

We used our portable hotplate :)

It made the cooking much more fun and it was super delicious!!

It also made me want to go to Korea asap.

Spoiling myself

I spoilt myself with some flowers, just love them and the colour!!

I wish flowers like these were cheaper so I could spoil myself every day ^^

Cox Pastell-Booties

I came back from Germany. Been super busy, however one of the days some of us took a taxi to the largest shopping mall in town :)

I ended up buying these shoes, I saw them already when I was down last time but had to think about it. I'm so happy I got them... 

Perfect for the season ^^

#Goertz

Anna Field Ballerinas - nude

I got myself some new shoes!!

I think they fit the coming season, and I will also have these as my spare for the wedding!

Heals first... Happy feet later ;)

These are from the brand Anna Field. I got them at Zalando.

Pretty cheap and free shipping. Like most, a bit wide but the size (length) was good.

I'm happy with my purchase!!

Cake tasting

We had cake tasting last weekend, from the same whom I purchased the delicious and gorgeous Blueberry Chocolate cake from.

Tasting was of course for our Wedding cake.

I had been so excited about this tasting, I felt bad for the girls as I had been emailing them like crazy asking for flavours and combinations. They were so kind and accommodated all out our requests.

And wow.. it was delicious. Also we got a lot of extra cup cakes home for family to try.

We found our perfect one, great combination of flavours, a totally new one off the "menu". I cannot wait to see the actual cake! The decoration I have seen on other wedding cakes they have made are sure bringing wow factor to a cake. 

Our wedding cake is not being a regular sugar paste/marzipan cake that most have (in Sweden), ours will be custom made for us! And I'm sure they are going to bring the WOW to us, something out of this world!!

I'm so happy we found these girls and their deliciousness!

Can't wait!

We seriously need to change

Everybody has seen the story from last week, Prof Robert E Kelly talking about North and South Korea and his children interrupting the interview.

The comments afterwards, seriously, we are in 2017 right?

For how long will we be stuck with stereotypes?

In 2017 a WHITE man cannot have an ASIAN wife...? 

Nope, She must be the nanny! SERIOUSLY!? Are we really that far behind? 

Can a White only marry a white, black a black, Asian and Asian? Because please forbid to cross any of them?!

I'm loss for words... I thought with people travel the globe, internet access and globalization that people would not be new to the matter, still when "we" see it our eyes go (O_o;;)

I think it's tragic that we have come so far with technology that advance our daily life but our minds are still stuck in the past!

We, human beings, seriously need to change!!!!

Delicious cake

I ordered a cake to congratulate my soon hubby to be for him passing his Swedish Driver's licence.

I ordered the cake from the wonderful Melody and Sabah who runt Little Art Cakery.

Their specialty is 100% organic and no white sugar!! I have been struck by the photos of their creations! 

We ordered a Blueberry intense with white chocolate on top.

The cake itself it made by cocoa, so yes...a chocolate sponge. I have to admit I was a bit scared as chocolate sometimes can be "very much". But this one was just WOW

So amazing!

I can recommend these girls, the cakes are so beautiful and delicious, you won't regret it!

And I can tell you a secret.. they are to make our Wedding Cake!!

We are so excited!

Food for thought

I wonder what is actually true of this.
Probably most of it.
It would also explain a lot of why some people live longer, feel better etc.

Fall back

I have no idea how I could have had missed out on this one.
Maybe because they changed her name? And they gave her a shitty song?
Seriously? They think she can make a great debut in the US with this?
She deserves SO SO SO SO SO SO much more!! She has such a powerful voice she can surely make a grand debut as long as she gets an awesome song!
This song reminds me of something I heard back in the 90's.

To me and the rest of the world, even US..she is AILEE not A.Leean!!!!

Please give her all her credits back!! And come up with something better.

Galway Girl

This is my fave song from Ed's latest album Divide!!
I love the music and the lyrics!!
I guess I always have had a secret crush on Irish folk music.

ENJOY!!



She played the fiddle in an Irish band
But she fell in love with an English man
Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand
Said baby I just want to dance

I met her on Grafton street right outside of the bar
She shared a cigarette with me while her brother played the guitar
She asked me what does it mean the Gaelic ink on your arm?
Said it was one of my friend’s songs do you want to drink on?

She took Jamie as a chaser, Jack for the fun
She got Arthur on the table, with Johnny riding as shot gun
Chatted some more, one more drink at the bar
Then put Van on the jukebox, got up to dance, you know

She played the fiddle in an Irish band
But she fell in love with an English man
Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand
Said baby I just want to dance

With my pretty little Galway Girl
You’re my pretty little Galway Girl

You know she beat me at darts and then she beat me at pool
And then she kissed me like there was nobody else in the room
As last orders were called, was when she stood on the stool
After dancing to Kaleigh, singing to trad tunes
I never heard Carrickfergus ever sung so sweet
Acapella in the bar using her feet for a beat
Oh I could have that voice playing on repeat for a week
And in this packed out room, swear she was singing to me

She played the fiddle in an Irish band
But she fell in love with an English man
Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand
Said baby I just want to dance

My pretty little Galway girl
My my my my my my my Galway girl
My my my my my my my Galway girl
My my my my my my my Galway girl

Now we’ve outstayed our welcome and it’s closing time
I was holding her hand, her hand was holding mine
Our coats both smell of smoke, whisky and wine
As we fill up our lungs with the cold air of the night

I walked her home then she took me inside
Finish some Doritos and another bottle of wine
I swear I’m going to put you in a song that I write
About a Galway girl and a perfect night


She played the fiddle in an Irish band
But she fell in love with an English man
Kissed her on the neck and then I took her by the hand
Said baby I just want to dance

My pretty little Galway girl
My my my my my my my Galway girl
My my my my my my my Galway girl
My my my my my my my Galway girl

Castle on the hill

Another awesome song by Ed Sheeran, ENJOY!!



When I was six years old I broke my leg
I was running from my brother and his friends
tasted the sweet perfume of the mountain grass I rolled down
I was younger then, take me back to when I
Found my heart and broke it here, made friends and lost them through the years
And I’ve not seen the roaring fields in so long, I know, I’ve grown
but I can’t wait to go home

I’m on my way, driving at 90 down those country lanes
Singing to Tiny Dancer, And I miss the way you make me feel, and it’s real
When we watched the sunset over the castle on the hill

Fifteen years old and smoking hand rolled cigarettes
Running from the law through the backfields and getting drunk with my friends
Had my first kiss on a Friday night, I don’t reckon I did it right
I was younger then, take me back to when we found
Weekend jobs when we got paid and buy cheap spirits and drink them straight
Me and my friends have not thrown up in so long, oh how we’ve grown
I can’t wait to go home

I’m on my way, driving at 90 down those country lanes
Singing to Tiny Dancer, And I miss the way you make me feel, it’s real
When we watched the sunset over the castle on the hill
Over the castle on the hill
Over the castle on the hill
Over the castle on the hill

One friend left to sell clothes
One works down by the coast
One had two kids but lives alone
One’s brother overdosed
Ones already on his second wife
Ones just barely getting by
But these people raised me
And I can’t wait to go home

And I’m on my way, and I still remember those country lanes
When we did not know the answers, And I miss the way you make me feel, it’s real
When we watched the sunset over the castle on the hill
Over the castle on the hill
Over the castle on the hill

DYI

I miss my dollar store from Canada and my Daiso from Japan and Korea.

I love these stores, cheap and lots of fun.

I think I'd do more DYI. We have some cheap stores in Sweden, still you cannot compare them.

Last time I was in Japan I think I bought over 100 items at Daiso, all from towels, snacks, china, socks. I mean you find things you didn't even know you actually needed ^^

I'm not so good at DYI but I'd be up to try more if I could get stuff cheaper ^^

Shape of you

I have no idea what I did on the day the tickets came out.
So sad I will miss the concert. But hopefully there will be new ones.
I love his comeback, I should have shared when they were released but sadly I was occupied.
Better late than never ^^

Enjoy!

Protein Pancake Mix

Last Friday we went to one of the shops where they sell protein powder etc.

I picked up one of each of the pancake mix.

I love pancakes but it's not the best food when training, however these are slightly better ^^

They were on 2 for 1 so I got one in each flavour. So far I have only tired cinnamon bun flavour, it was good. I cannot wait to try vanilla too.

I can surely recommend this, in case you love pancakes :)

Saturday supper

I made a delicious meal last Saturday.

Oven baked chicken with roasted potatoes and veggies.

It was absolutely delicious and easy!

I mean everything was cooked in the oven by itself ^^

Massage stick

I donno but it felt embarrassing to carry this around.

It said "massage stick" on the package and it was a see through bag. Maybe it was me with a dirty mind but it felt like people could misunderstand!

However this stick is for rehab purposes, and great to massage sore muscles.

I'm very happy with my choice!

This past weekend I spent a lot of money on things for the gym!!

It was worth all the money ^^

Fine

I did a review of the album the other day!
Here is the title track - Fine!
I love it :)

Enjoy!

Happy Saturday :)

German feast

 I came back from Germany the other day.

And I have to share this feast!! I'm in a wonder how they think 1 person can eat all of this?

I hate to waste but I cannot just eat because of that.

The bread we shared, three of us. We were keen to understand what this black one was!

According to the staff it was squid ink and cranberries. it was delicious but not what I thought!

I wonder how they came up with it ^^

Then for the main - kale and lots of meats, all pork.

Pork cheak, porkchop (?!) and sausage!! and some baked potatoes with bacon pieces. Yes bring on the meat XD

I tried to force myself to eat half but it was not possible. I felt so bad when the waiter came, but I couldn't eat more! :(

A nice restaurant and the atmosphere inside was cozy. I hope I can go there again!

My Voice

Taeyeon is finally releasing a full length album.
I have been super excited, I really like her music! And wow.. I'm impressed. It was a LONG time ago I heard an album where I like the majority of the songs! I cannot choose a fave, they are all good but in different ways! I believe the reason why I cannot choose is due to the mix of styles and by pulling them off she sure shows what a great artist she is. If I can say one bad thing, I so wish she'd write herself... but well well!If you haven't heard it, hurry up!! You won't be disappointed!
