Budapest and a lot of mammama and babababa

Last week Team Nikolovski decided to make a little road trip to explore Budapest. To be honest i didn't know much more then it is the capital of Hungary, The Danube running through and the home-ground for the Budapest roll and goulash. I got the task to find out more and to make a rough plan for our visit. A task I took very seriously and we were ready to go. 

Förra veckan begav vi oss iväg på en liten road-trip till Budapest. Om jag ska vara ärlig visste jag inte mycket mer om Budapest än att det är huvudstaden av Ungern, att Donau rinner där och att Budapestrullen och goulashen har sin ursprung där. Jag fick uppgiften att ta reda på mer och lägga upp en liten plan för vad vi vill se. Jag gjorde diverse eftersökningar och så var vi redo. 



We left on Thursday morning, hoping that the little CEO would approve of a few hours in the car. We sang her favorite song "Just give me a reason" a couple of times and she was fast asleep.We made a couple of stops for food, coffee and playtime. Everyone in an excellent mood we arrived to Budapest. We had dinner at Robinson, best food I have had in a restaurant in a very long time and I can highly recommend it.

We can also recommend a great cafe where we had our breakfasts ECOcafe, great place with nice bio products.

We spent the following three days exploring Budapest by foot. We walk and walk and walk. It was warm, warm, warm, but it was only me complaining. Mila had the time of her life in her "Mila mobile" like a small house on wheels where she is checking things out. We enjoyed good food, sweet little parks, nice views and a great atmosphere. I am positively surprised of Budapest and there is so much more to see, so we are planning a return trip soon.

We want to check out restaurants at Raday street and surrounding area more. Also the cute park and cafe at Ferenczy Lstvan we have to return to. The big market hall was closed when we got there so next time we will plan to get there in time. Margret Island, thermal spa, sweet shop and Buda side is also on the list.

På torsdagsförmiddagen gav vi oss iväg. Vi hoppades innerligt att vår lilla boss skulle tycka att det var helt ok att spendera några timmar i bilen. Det gjorde hon. Hon somnade gott efter att vi spelat hennes favorit sång ett par gång. Vi stannade för lunch, kaffe och lek ett par gånger. Samma kväll åt vi middag på en resturang som vi verkligen kan rekommendera, Robinson, nära Hjältarnas torg. Vi kan även rekommendera ett mysigt café med fokus på ekologiska produkter ECOcafe, vi åt goda frukostar där varje dag. 

Vi spenderade tre dagar promenerandes runt i Budapest. Vi gick och vi gick och vi gick. Det var varmt varmt varmt. Jag var dock den enda i teamet som klagade på värmen.  Mila njöt till fullo, från hennes rullande palats hade hon koll på allt. Vi hade en super trevlig vistelse med god mat, lek i trevliga parker, vackra vyer och fick en härlig känsla från Budapest gator.
Jag är positivt överraskad och det finns såklart mycket mer att se och uppleva för nästa besök. På listan att se nästa gång står bland annat den stora inomhus marknaden som hade stängt när vi kom fram, Margret ön, spa, café med bakelser och att utforska Buda sidan. 


Our Budapest trip were also very special. Mila turned 7 months. She waved for the first time and starting to make new sounds. Sounds sounding like real words. Mammmamma, papppapa and babbabba, our heart melted even more and we kept looking at her in this weird excited way.

Budapest resan kommer vi att minnas inte minst för att Mila vinkade för första gång. Blev sju månader och började med en hel massa nya ljud. Ljud som låter som riktiga ord. Mammmama, babbaba och papppapa. Vår hjärtan smälter ännu mer och vi är så stolt att vi håller på att trilla av stolen.

Weekly update 42/52 New fleece hats ready for the cooler weather

   

Weekly update 41/52 Time for warmer hats, nice books and last garden projects

  October and week 41 and I have been making lots of new jersey hats with fleece lining. The weather is getting colder and colder and yes hat season is here. I will during the week add new fun warm hats in my web-shop. The hats will also be sold at Christmas markets here in Örebro.  New this year for me is that I am making baby hats since I got a lot of requests. I find it hard to make baby hats because they look so small, it is hard to remember how small babies are.  Also this week big happiness over at new book release from my favorite children book illustrator Sven Nordqvist. "Vägen Hem" a wonderful book with amazing illustrations.   I have also bought and planted some new plants inspired from some nice park arrangements here in Örebro. Now lets hope that all the deer in the forrest will not eat all of these, as I forgot to check wether or not these are tasty to them. In our country-house in the forrest they tend to come and eat everything they like and they ...

Weekly update 40/52 Autumn colors and cinnamon buns

Welcome October the most colorful month of the year. Yes we are going full steam towards the darker and colder part of the year, but I have to admit it is cosy and pretty with all the colorful leaves.  I don't know if it is a new thing to have theme days where a dish or something is being celebrated. I am guessing it is a capitalistic marketing great idea so companies can make more money like Valentine day. One of those days in Sweden is 4 of October when our national bakery Cinnamon bun is being honored. I got inspired! Some time ago I bought nice linnen tea-towels which I was planning to make some print/design on and when I got inspired by cinnamon bun I knew exactly what to make. I started scribbling and drawing buns on a big sheet. When I had one or two which I thought looked ok I transfered my bun drawing to my Cricut and had it cut out on iron-on vinyl. My mum is a master in baking buns and so I made a tea-towel/baking-towel in honor of not only cinnamon buns but of my mother...
