Life´s Little Pleasures

Today I took my wonderful daughter to Porvoo for a day trip. We had a great day together, just the two of us. Real mother-daughter bonding. First we went to the Brunberg Candy Factory for tasting and shopping. Then we headed to the Old Town for little shopping and some cake...and some more cake. What a great day! And I love her company dearly.

Home Decoration Mania

Recently I have been quite manic! I can´t get enough of blogs and shops about home interior and decoration. There are so many wonderful ideas that would be wonderful for our new house. It will be hard to choose from all those great and beautiful things and pieces of furniture.

I love Country White Style so much right now. It suits our house, too. In the near future we will be getting a new sofa and some shelfs and cupboards. And also we need curtains and such.

Even though my manic shopping days are over I still do enjoy browsing the internet and finding new stores. There is a great looking home interior store right here where we live and I haven´t been there yet.

First Birthday Party And Other First Things


Kiia attended the first birthday party here. I am glad she´s making friends and getting rooted to a new hometown. Since we didn´t really know anybody here I think we are doing pretty well and making new friends. It makes me happy.

The only good friends we already knew from this area live 16 km away. The lovely lady is a very good friend of mine and has been since early 90s. We are also the godparents for her second daughter. She´s been taking me shopping on two Saturdays in a row. It´s been good to have some girl talks. I really enjoyed it.

Good News

Finally we sold our apartment for a very good price. It makes life a lot easier and cheaper not to have two homes. We are so happy!! And relieved!!


We will still have to empty all the little bits and pieces here and there in the apartment. But finally we will be able to chill out and have no worries whatsoever..... Yay!
