magpie

There is an incredibly cheeky magpie living in our courtyard - in these pictures it is hopping back and forth making loud noises and pecking at William the cats tail! William ended up leaving. (i love the word magpie - its sounds like a delicious pie!)

digital love

i really really like my computer! to avoid misunderstandings i decorated it so everyone can see who it belongs to!

▶ Milk tooth's rain: Sometimes its just not possible to keep up with all the good stuff happening online
▶ Lisen: 100%

catch up

got my computer back yesterday and trying to catch up with everything that has fallen behind -not just digitally. Elinor is a bit under the weather and is taking it out on the night, so things easily fall behind. We have had time to enjoy the fabulous sunshine though and i have a lot of photos to show you. Now all go enjoy your weekend! (when you have nothing better to blog just slap on a picture of a baby and a dog - that should do the trick)

▶ Everyone: thanks for all the sweet comments! You can get the moonin pithcer lots of places (google "moomin pitcher") - we got ours at the danish store Inspiration (not as inspiring as it sounds). The scull cave is made by Our Childrens Gorilla - Ebony: Thank you for the cool type link!

forgotten things

I can't edit any new photos before i get my computer back so i thought i would give you some forgotten, unblogged gems: A moomin pitcher, carrots and potatoes in line, a laughing/crying Elinor and a racket in a bush.
I will be back to answering all your comments once my computer is back -until then, this is ungt blod light. 

happiness

Sorry for the lack of posts these days - i have lend out my computer to a friend which always makes blogging a bit more difficult. Meanwhile i have these two happy places for you to visit on the internet: Lili Scratchy and Misako Mimoko - just then names tells you you are on to something good! I always break into a huge smile everytime i visit their blogs! They both take part in this project!

go crazy

Rufus deserves a gif too :) it was Sandra who reminded me that i wanted to try out gifs with this great animation. I loosely followed this guide to making gifs. Have a good friday tomorrow! i will make burgers again!

dance!

We turned in our assignment on blogs this week, sun is shining and elinor is dancing to this mix

▶ everyone: thanks for the sweet comments about our new pony - the paint is pealing of so im thinking of repainting it to make it elinor safe -any ideas?

i bought a horse

Friday i walked past a horse in the street on the way to the bakery. When we turned back i had to buy the horse. Now it lives in our apartment. Hope you have had a super weekend!

strawberry cake and pink feet

It went from fall to summer in no time at all and im enjoying it thoroughly: strawberry cake and summer feet (not mine - are those pink/orange shoes not fantastic?) The last picture reminds me of this song - twin peaks + mount eerie = ♥

▶ everyone: oh i definitely will have to go to the exhibition! i promise you i will do it!

▶ Tiffany: both the man and the watch :)
▶ Ponies and purple: you can spend HOURS pouring sand on your screen if you let your self!
▶ Jordan: That sounds really interesting!

what time is it?

a while back -like maybe two months ago- i got a surprise gift from Dennis. We were out grocery shopping and stopped by the post office. D picked up a little registered letter and gave it to me. Inside it was a silver, leather watch from Real Fake Watches that i had wanted for a long time. Then D asked me what time it was, i looked at the watch and it said 16.31 -the moment Elinor was born! I love that watch and wear it every day. He is the greatest dad.

▶ Emily: Perfekt!
▶ La sale bete: I love toys that are fun for both kids and grown ups
▶ Flora: I did - hope you did too!
▶ Wera: the big one has to be insanely expensive -otherwise i will buy it!

▶ Brit: !!
▶ Megan: I really love their foundation too - so it made the disappointment even bigger
▶ Gracia: Thats the trick -it goes on for ever so we can all fit!
▶ Stuffedmice: Its so interesting to meet up with five other moms who really are very very different from me -but at the moment we have alot of babystuff in common!
▶ Tuilie: Oh 100% pure sounds really interesting! but boy the international shipping is steep!
▶ Lost bird found: thank you so much for the beautiful gifts!
▶ Millo: Har lagt et par gode ud under i like -prøv også at google rafaël rozendaal! -og jeg synes også sketchy bunnies er mega-donnie-darko-uhyggelig
▶ Louise: Det var lige præcis min plan!
▶ Kickcan and Conkers: You are very welcome!

Mirror Castle

Every other week or so i meet up with five other moms with kids from november last year, who live in my neighbourhood. One of these moms told me about a fantastic danish toy project where different artists will design creative toys. Im head over heals in love with the first toy: The mirror castle by Jeppe Hein. The castle comes in three different sizes and is perfect for creating your own world either with the mega model - perfect for a secret hide out or the small one that will make drawings come to life and can be taken anywhere! of course i really want the mega model - wonder what piece of furniture we will have to get rid of to fit it in our apartment...

▶ Emily: ohh emily -det skal du virkelig ikke sige to gang! vi mangler en god rufus-sitter i området!
▶ Dessa: mmm cats with potatoes and olives sounds delicious :) And yes i am a very serious coffeedrinker -even with the restrictions because i nurse. But that Ethiopian was a serious coffee too!
▶ Stefanie: ha ha -perfect! thank you for that link! i will post two other great internetspaces in the i like section later
▶ Cara. :( annoying! i fall for the good prices and most of all the free shipping. i love free shipping!
▶ Gamze: what an stupid mistake by the shop -but one mistake is acceptable when there are 8 packages! sounds perfect! D also prefers many small things instead of one big
▶ Lina: thank you! i hope your school work is getting lighter and lighter!
▶ Marthe: hi hi -a trick is to order a lot of stuff online :)
▶ Sopchan: i must have been really lucky with mascaras earlier because i was really shocked by how bad it was :) Clinique just stays where its supposed to!
▶ Jokemijn: you are right! fashion is a good reason!
