IT'S A GOOD START OF THE DAY

Look what I got by post this morning!
I'm very happy about this find, not only because I got
it dirt cheap, $8.99 on eBay, it's also a mix between
my two favorite materials when it comes to handbags,
wicker AND Lucite!

UPCOMING TRIP?

I think my man has been bitten by the Swede-bug
or maybe he really fancy my aunt. He he he...
It looks like we're going over again next month!

PLEASE DON'T GO!

It's been one busy week, therefor lack of posts.
My best friend Sandra, that I've known since I was 16,
came over for a week to see how I live, shop and have a
good time.
Here's a list of what we did.

Tuesday: Picked her up at Stansted airport.

Wednesday: Sat on the patio the entire day, doing our
nails and drank too many cocktails.
Went to Ace Cafe in the evening where we modeled for
an upcoming book about rockabilly's.

Thursday: A whole day of shopping in central London.
I was stopped outside Topshop by a headhunter from a
model agency who really loved my style and curves and
wanted me to send some professional pictures.

Friday: Went to a Slim Slip and the Sliders gig, we were
on the guest-list as usual. Greg, the singer, seems to really
fancy her, I hope he fancy her so much that he ask her to
move over here, that would be so swell.

Saturday: Went to a car boot sale, got tons of cool stuff.
Had a BBQ in the back garden and a long walk.

Sunday: Went to another car boot sale and afterwards we
had a really nice pasta dinner on the patio and another long
walk, found a really cool house.

Monday: Walked around town, did some shopping.
Made a very nice Tai dinner and Greg from Slim Slip came
over in the evening to get to know my girl a bit better.

Tuesday: Relaxed and enjoyed the scenery in Benington
Village. Had another BBQ in the back garden.
Drowe her to Stansted airport.

AND THE WINNER IS...

Schmut!

Sorry for the delay.
I have a friend from Sweden over this week and yesterday
we went into central London for a girlie day, which I really
needed, we came back so late that I just didn't have the
strength to put the computer on.



I do have a consolation prize for three girls!
These pair of bee earrings goes to:
Jema Rose
Toulose
Bettie Booh

I'm gonna have another giveaway in the very near future,
so please have another try.

A SLICE OF HEAVEN

Me and my man had a day out today.
We haven't done much together lately because we'd
both been busy with this and that so we decided to
go to Golders Green to have a bite to eat and check
out the local charity shops.

I found these funky vintage earrings for £1.50...



and this record by Connie Francis who sings Jewish
favorites(!!!) for £1.



Hello!!! As a Jewish rockabella this must be a slice
of heaven.

Afterwards we went shopping for new towels etc. to
doll up the bathroom.
I also been painting a second coat on the stairway,
started last night and I'm really looking forward to
finish it because it's gonna look like a piano!
I got the idea last year after watching an episode of
the TV show, The Real Housewives of New York.
(The countess has black and white stairway in her
Manhattan townhouse.)

Tomorrow my best friend from college is coming over
for a week, I'm really looking forward to it.
We're gonna go to the Ace Cafe hot rod night, have a
party, going shopping in London and much more.
