Death of a Greengate Cup

What a rubbish morning!!!! My beloved green cup with white dots from greengate... lost it's handle... so now it's dead... and I dont know where to replace it!!!! if ANYONE knows of a online shop that sells these green coffeecups in Norway.. please please let me know....
I loved that cup :(Here it is... in it's newer days.... poor green coffe cup of mine....

Just another Sunday

Well, it's finally sunday!!! I did plan to get up early, after an early date with the sheets last night, but it didnt work... My alarm clock went off and I killed it before snuggeling down in my soft bed once again... And I didnt surafce again untill it was way past 10am... Well hey, it was a long week... Working saturdays isn't fun, even if the people you work with are cool! So today was my "to-do" day... with a rather long list of chores. It didnt get fulfilled though... I didnt wash the floors... but I did do the dishes and a load of laundry... and shuffled snow... Ma came over for coffee and helped me out with the snow shuffeling. Always alot more fun if you're two....

I also took a few pics of items brought in during the week. Some new figgjo for my ever growing collection... and some spring flowers!

These mokka cups are a different kind from what I have seen before... But they are amazing...
And two cups with saucers and plates... in the background you can see my glass cabinet (one of two) filled with other Figgjo treasures...
just a few more shots... becuase I liked them!!!

And a soupbowl with a lid :)
thats it for figgjo stuff now... I really wish there was a website that I could go and find all the different patterns on (what they are called) allthough I do think I know most of them by now. I have a few rareties that I'd like to know more about... as well as the date these were made... so far I havent seen anything like that..

There was a sale on for crocuses at the mall where I work... I couldnt resist... they are dark purple (I hope)... put them in my little cauldron.... and I thought the little watch made a cute detail... counting down to spring!!!
Mum brought me fresh eggs form her yellow orpingtons... and I thought they looked alot better on the counter, rather than beeing hidden in the fridge!
Not much happend this week.. alot of work basically... and I am trying to "re-potty-train" my kitten... I'm not entirely sure why is being messy now... she was fine to begin with... hm....

also reading a children's book...which EVERYONE that loved "wind in the willows" or Beatrix Potter should read... it is called "Kenny & the Dragon" and is written by Tony DiTerlizzi, my favorite illustrator... the illustartions of course are magicial! Detailed and witty and just fantastic!!!

Have a great sunday everyone!

A Rather Eventful Weekend!

Right....

so my weekend started out pretty darn good... Saturday I had old family friends over on saturday, made cake and received wonderful housewarming-gifts!
I'd bought myself roses too. I absolutely love these pale pink roses, mixed with some pine flowers :) And they just fit perfectly into my colour scheme!
Later I went bowling with my best friend Ole and his entire, crazy, family. Which was hillarious! We had so much fun, and I havent been bowling for years! I sucked, but I had fun!!!

But then tragedy hit! Literally! On my way to my parents house today (sunday) I got a slang on my car, hit a car that came the other way... and ended up f'ing up my newly fixed car! Last time it was Ole's fault, this time there was no one to blame but me... I hate icy slick roads!!! And once again I am without a car! Hurray... my trusted mechanic laughed his arse off, as it was only a week ago he finnished my last fix-up (which Ole caused, I'm stressing that!!!)... and now he wanted to know if I needed a bonus card from him... right... and EXPENSIVE!!! siiigh... so that was kind of crap... but I have a wonderful family that helps me out in any way they can... I am so thankful!!! And I see that I was lucky compared to alot of other people in my area today. One woman lost her life in a car accident, and 7 ended up in the hospital in another... All of wich was in my small area! That's SCARY! So take care driving everyone!!!



It helps to come home to my two wonderful cats as well... allthough they had been alittle naughty this time... and I had to clean up! But I still love them! How could I not... just look at them!

I've also managed to hang my last pictures... these bird ones are hung in the diningroom... I am pretty pleased with how they came out....
And these, butterfly ones, are hung in my livingroom... above the tv...
And now, after this rather eventful weekend... I am off to bed, before fighting my way to work tomorrow in a borrowed car... sigh!!!
