Chihuahua cravings!

Last evening in France we spent with Jean-Baptiste and Cédric's friend Fréderic and his girlfriend that lives just outside Vendôme in a house. They invited us for dinner and to play mini pool. We ate a traditional french raclette dish. This one was with potatoes, different pieces of ham and then the raclette cheese that is melted and put on top of everything. It's really good but at the same time very heavy and you definitely can't eat as much as you would like. Anyway, that was probably good for their little Chihuahua puppy, or else I think I would have eaten her too! She was seriously the cutest little puppy I've ever seen. So small and so adorable and I just wanted to take her with me and keep her forever :)

Pour notre dernière soirée en France, nous sommes allés chez Frédéric et sa compagne, des amis de Jean-Baptiste et Cédric, qui vivent à la sortie de Vendôme, dans une charmante maison, pour partager un bon repas et faire quelques parties de (mini) billard. Nous avons eu le droit à une spécialité francaise, qu'ils appellent "raclette". C'est un plat relativement consistant mais délicieux. Une bonne nouvelle pour leur petit Chihuahua que nous aurions certainement été amenés à dévorer si nous avions eu encore faim ! Ce dernier est sans doute le plus mignon des chiots que j'ai jamais vu, quand j'y pense. Tellement minuscule et adorable que j'aurais voulu l'adopter et le garder pour toujours :)

A walk around Vendôme and a sneak peak of our new appartment!

We're back in Sweden since one week and I think it's about time to show you our new appartment. We don't have any pictures from the inside because someone was still living there when we checked it out but we have taken some pictures from the outside to give you a little hint of what it may look like (and of course some ego pictures of me haha!) The appartment is surrounded by stores and the only neighbour we have is the owner of the appartment that lives above the appartment. She seems to be really nice and cool so I'm sure it won't be a problem. The appartment is not very big, two rooms and 47 square metres, but it's really different as it has been used as an office before. The best thing is that it has no stairs for Kingston to climb and we have a park for dogs just around the corner. I can't even tell you how excited I am to go to France and start to decorate our new home! I'm so in love with the little city, everything is so beautiful and calm and I'm sure we will really enjoy our time there.

Nous sommes de retour en Suède depuis maintenant une semaine et je pense qu'il est maintenant temps de vous montrer notre nouvel appartement. Nous n'avons pas de photos de l'intérieur étant donné que les lieux étaient encore occupés lorsque nous avons fait la visite, mais vous verrez au moins l'extérieur (et quelques photos de moi, on ne se refait pas haha!). L'appartement est entouré de magasins et notre seule voisine est notre propriétaire qui vit au dessus de nous. Elle a vraiment l'air très sympa donc cela ne devrait pas poser de problème. L'appartement n'est pas très grand, seulement deux pièces et 47 mètres carrés et très original étant donné que c'est un ancien cabinet d'assurances. Il n'y a pas d'escaliers ce qui est très bien pour Kingston et il y a un parc au coin de la rue. Je suis vraiment très excitée à l'idée de démenager et de commencer à décrorer notre nouveau foyer! Je suis tombée amoureuse de cette petite ville, tout y est si beau et calme... Je suis certaine que nous allons apprécier notre nouvelle vie.

The making of a skirt, part 1

I've always been interested in sewing but I have never really taking care of that interest and evolved it before. I have always sewed to correct and change my jeans and other stuff that I thought didn't really fit me but that's about it. Now I want to do something about this interest and I have decided to sew my own skirt from the beginning with an old fabric my mom had here at home. If this project turns out well I will try to continue sewing and eventually making a part of my own wardrobe myself. I like the thought of having peaces and patterns that no one else have.

If this on the other hand turns into a big flop I guess I will quickly loose interest and continue to buy everything in shops as I've done until now haha! Anyway, wish me good luck people! :)

J'ai toujours été intéressée par la couture mais je n'y avais jamais consacré de temps auparavant. J'ai à de nombreuses occasions travaillé sur mes jeans pour en ajuster la taille, mais c'est à peu près tout. Aujourd'hui, j'ai donc décidé de me lancer dans la confection d'une jupe à partir d'un ancien tissu trouvé dans les placards de ma mère. Si ce projet s'avère payant, je continuerais certainement mes créations dans le but de compléter ma garde-robe. J'aime l'idée de porter des vêtements uniques et personnalisés.

En revanche, si cette manipulation tourne au flop, je suppose que je continuerais à faire du shopping haha! Quoi qu'il en soit, souhaitez-moi bonne chance! :)
