Happy about: A loooot of things!! Just to mention a few, we had friends here for the weekend which was great fun! We are also making some really exciting holiday plans for end March (still to be confirmed).
Disappointed about: Nothing......actually....
Looking forward to: Tomorrow morning I am traveling to Poland for business and in the evening I will meet up with two of my friends (and former colleagues) and I have really missed them =) On Friday I will go home to Sweden for a long weekend to celebrate my dad's marriage and his 60th birthday. Am really looking forward to see my friends and family again!!! It's been waaaaaay too long.....
Listening to: All kinds of music! Still have a hang-up on Florence + The Machine's "No light, No light". Am also really loving "Shine" by Benjamin Francis Left as well as "Fader" and "Love Lost" by The Temper Trap....among many others ;)
Hoping: That I will have enough energy to go for a run before it gets dark today. I feel that I should go, but struggle a bit with the motivation to go. He he!
Thinking about: A friend whose birthday is next week and I'm wondering what to get her and WHEN as I don't have much time. Hmmmm.......
Smiling about: Some recent touching phone calls with friends and family.
Wishing: That I didn't have to spend parts of the evening packing....but oh well...
Sad about: Having to get up so ridiculously early for the traveling in the next two days! I am really not a morning person ;)
Wanting: To buy so much stuff when I go home to Sweden!! Mainly food.... Gosh I miss the food back home....the only sad thing is that most of the things I miss need to be refrigerated. Does anyone have any tricks on how to travel with stuff that needs to stay cold?
....and here some shots to summarize the weekend:
Our two guests and Chris admiring the spectacular view of the Alps |
We went to Vallee de Joux on Saturday..... |
...where the lake had frozen and it was an amazing amount of people skating, walking, eating and playing on the ice. |
It was an amazingly beautiful day! Only -1 degrees and sunshine =) |

Fun in the sun |
Snowfights galore ;) |
....and yes, he probably deserved this revenge snow-kick ;)) |
.....and an abundance of beautiful sceneries!! |
I love having guests so I can experiment in the kitchen. This was the starter I made: Butter seared Scallops on a Blood Orange Salsa bed |
For main course: Couscous Paella |
The dessert was certainly not an experiment, but more a safe card ;)) Swiss Meringue served with Creme Brulee flavored ice cream and Whipped Cream |

fun trips ahead linda! & i love the photo of the two of you : )
