Colors make me happy!

In interior design I love the happy mix of everything. So, in my home I make a mixture of new and old. White and colors. I can't get enough of pastel colors and colors in general, they make me happy. I love the color white as a basis. The pure "scandinavian" style is always fresh looking and when adding some rustic&romantic details it just makes the room personal and shabby chic but not too shabby. Pretty clear right? Haha!

^ Got this pink babe for our babe for her 1st birthday. Isn't it cool? Bought it from a Finnish toystore in the internet, www.lelutalo.fi I got fast and good service and a super quick delivery. The car is just an apple for the eye, a beauty! This mama is really happy! And Little Miss Sunshine likes it too, so win-win.

Ok, I'm off to plan the weekend and tonights dinner. If we are home on fridays (which we usually are) so just to make life easier we have started to eat  the same "menu" on fridays; either tortillas, home-made or order-pizza, sushi, indian food etc. It's really comfortable and makes friday night nice and relaxing. 
Fredagsmys alltså. 
I think tonight it'll be pizza from the nearest pizzeria and some Pepsi Max to quench the thirst, a glass of some deep and velvety red wine to nourish the soul and afterwards Lidl's perfect and simple chocolate ice-cream. John Mayer could take care of the music, I think I need soft tones tonight. Then a little sofa-time and enjoying the feeling of having the whole weekend in front of us.

I wish you a nice friday, ciao for now!

In english? På svenska? Suomeksi?

In my CV I have written something like this: "Finnish and swedish are my mother tongues. I understand and speak fluently english. I can cope with french, italian and spanish. I've studied some courses of german, estonian, russian and japanese".

I just love languages. I took every chance that I had in my studies (in college and later in Uni) I had to study languages. I adapt them easily and always when I travel I pretty soon start to speak the language of the country whether I speak correctly or not. Usually not. But I'm always undestood! (Or so I think)
My significant other just loooooves my eagerness to speak all the languages in any way that I can.

The thing is that I have two languages in my everyday life; finnish and swedish. Finnish is my deeper mothertongue and swedish is nowadays by far the language that I feel more feelings with. Mitt känslospråk.
I couldn't really deside in which one to blog so I chose english. So now I'll write in english untill I get a better idea.

Anyway, if you want to leave a comment, you can do it in any language!

Suomee ja savvoo, hiljaa ja kovvoo!

Ciao ragazze!

PS. Or what do you think? Köörataanko suomeksi sittenkin?

The one with the first blogpost ever.

So here I am. After long and hard thinking, I have started a blog. And after long and hard fighting with html-world, I have finally managed to get this blog look at least a little bit nice for my eyes!

Its's Valentines day today. Here Finland mostly a day for friendship, maybe slowly becoming the lovers day like in the rest of the world. I love all the "holidays" and special days. We can never celebrate life enough. And by writing this I don't mean that my life is even close to perfect in the way that I would always be celebrating life and happy as a frog on a sunny day. But I try to be positive as much as I can. 

Little miss Sunshine ( my 1-year old cutie-pie) just woke up from her day-nap so I'll go and give her a snack now. Yoghurt it will be and some fruit pure, yummie. She loves it.

Well lovely honey-bunnies, see you again soon!
