What a surprise!
I had recently asked my Best Friend back home to buy me a copy of the new magazine BoligDrøm to keep till I get to Norway next weekend as I was worried it might be sold out by the time I get there.
But lo and behold!
The magazine was waiting for me as I picked up the post today!!!
And what excellent timing since it is Friday and time to put the feet up, chill out and enjoy!
Thank you, thank you, thank you, snuppa!!!
I am sure I am the happiest Norwegian girl in this town tonight!

Like so many in 'Bloglandia' I also loved the magazine and found much inspiration in it. Also very nice to read more about many of the blogs I read regularly! Yep, this will be one of my regular purchases when I go 'home'!
Me like!
2nd weekend of Advent is soon upon us.
2nd weekend of Advent is soon upon us.
As I mentioned, I will be going 'home' next weekend (I seem to have a lot of 'homes') and this doesn't leave much time for preparations in my English home before the holidays.
One of my traditional 'must-do-before-Christmas-things' is to visit Ikea (need more candles - the English just can't do proper candles...!). We live only about 1 hr away from several Ikea outlets, but somehow it just seems much further and my men are not very keen to accompany me...
Our Boy claims I have agreed to an annual quota of 1 visit a year (NEVER!). However, I seem to have taken out so many advance visits, that according to his calculations I should not be going there again until he is about 35 (he is presently 14...).
So, he has refused to come, but my Danish Friend will join me and together we will satisfy our need for some Scandinavian Christmas influence from the Swedish retailer.
Talk about Scandinavian harmony!
;-)
Så koselig post!
ReplyDeleteVi bor bare ti minutter unna Ikea, men det er jammen meg ikke ofte jeg kommer meg dit likevel....Ha en strålende helg!
Hei!! Idag har jeg laget den marengskaken med kokos som du la ut oppskriften på. Skal bruke den imorgen med krem og bær, slik du gjorde!! Jeg bodde 2 år i Athen, og da fikk jeg KK hver uke. Like lykkelig hver gang. Det er rart hvordan man setter pris på å få et norsk blad mellom hendene...... Selvom jeg tenker at det er mange fine engelske bo-blader?? Ha en fin helg!! Ps det er mange herrer som synes det er slitsomt med Ikea turer...... AnneK:-)
ReplyDeleteHei. Kos deg med nytt blad og helg, det er nok vel fortjent. Merkelig det med IKEA, min favorittbutikk, 20 min hjemmefra og 5 minutter fra hytta og min mann får nesten utslett bare jeg nevner ordet...
ReplyDeleteÅ for en koselig overraskelse, deilig fredagskveld med nytt blad og kos :)
ReplyDeleteSamme her, mannen min blir sur før vi ankommer, enda jeg KUN har han med som bærer. I tilleg har jeg gjerne vært innom dagen før og notert hvor på lageret vi finner de ulike tingene og tatt med meg alle småting..
Herlig kommentar fra sønnen din :)
♥ God helg ♥
Klem fra Tove
I hope you and your Danish friend have fun! IKEA has never been the same as when you, our New Zealand friend and I went ... :o)
ReplyDeleteBut remember: candles and napkins ALWAYS wind up costing a lot more than expected (especially when confronted with all that lovely other miscellanea!)
For en koselig overraskelse! Må visst ut å sikre meg et eksemplar av bladet jeg og:-)
ReplyDeleteKos deg på Ikea!
Klem
