DANGEROUS

Ha ha ha!
I got this on myspace from my friend Elaine:

"Please read!!!
If you are an owner of a dog that belongs to a
'dangerous breed' category and you also have
a small child please take this as a warning.
Don't leave your dog with the child unattended
under any circumstances.
Only a little moment was enough for the
following to happen. See the photo attached."

PURIM



It's Purim, easiest explained as the Jewish Halloween.
I should have baked Hamantaschen but my man decided
to go on a diet. *sigh*

I still haven't joined a synagogue since I moved here so
we won't go to the reading of the Book of Esther.
My man is a member of the United but they are waaay
too conservative for our liking.
My man hasn't set his foot there since his Bar Mitzvah.
I actually feel like a bad Jewess since I haven't joined any
of the Jewish communities over here, when I was living
in Stockholm I went to the synagogue as often as I could,
even the morning service!

I'M HAVING A ROCKING WEEKEND

I'm taking a five minute break form cleaning the house.
Since I haven't been too well lately the cleaning sessions
hasn't been as many as before.
We're having guests staying over, The Go Getters to be
more specific, so it's a very good reason to clean.

We're going to an all day rockabilly event in Birmingham
tomorrow to have fun, see a bunch of great bands, jive
and meet up with friends we don't see that often.
We got the hotel room, entrance and drinks for free so
it's silly not to go.
I also have a free stall if I want to sell hair flowers and
jewelery but I'm not sure if I can be bothered.

Have a nice weekend everyone!



By the way... I've made some new hair flowers.
You'll find them here, here and here.
(Soon available on Tradera.)

LOVE IS THE REASON


My man surprised me with this huge bunch of roses
last night for no other reason than that he loves me.
Now how lucky am I?

TODAY'S TREASURES

Me and my man went for a little road trip today
and I spotted an antique shop as we drove through
a small town.
The prices wasn't very low but we managed to spot
a bargain, or in this case, two.

In the bargain box we found a plate for 50 pence from
the 1950's called Woolworths Homemaker, it's highly
collectible and they usually go for £12 each.
I have one already that is gonna be hung up on the
wall in the kitchen along with this one at some point.

I found some really neat sparkling earrings from the
1950's for £3. (Gift from my man.)

BRASSERIE MOLLARD



I've noticed that some of you have taken or planning
a trip to Paris and I totally forgot to tell you about a
rather breathtaking place I went to when I was there in
May 2006, Brasserie Mollard, it's a seafood restaurant
entirely decorated in Art Nouveau.
It opened in 1867 and I don't think it has changed much
since then.
I don't eat seafood (it's not kosher and I'm vegetarian)
so I can't really recommend the food, the only vegetarian
meal they had when I was there was onion soup which I
didn't enjoy because I'm not a fan of onions.
You can always pop in for a drink though.
Now check out the decor!
