Pappa Book a good deal hunter

Team Nikolovski spent last week in Stockholm. Mr Nikolovski was working hard while me and Mila was relaxing and hanging out with pappa/morfar Stefan. We had a great time with nice weather and a lot of chilaxing time. Our Fatboy hammock has been frequently used.

 I will now tell you more about Mr pappa/morfar Stefan Book a man full of ideas and plans. He is a very creative man who has done more or less everything you can think of. Traveled the world with crazy inter-rail trips and road-trips as a youngster, seen Australia, Middle east, USA and Asia with friends. He has ran discotheques, record-shops, flower-shops, restaurants and hotel. He has built big nice houses and a whole camping of cabins in Idre, Fjällfotens stugby. He has been a policeman, businessman and now a driving instructor. He has always been looking for good deals. One time I remember that the garage was full of nail-polish, creams and other cosmetic in heaps, apparently a good deal. Another time bought all the paintings from an artist he meet somewhere, a good deal as he might be famous one day ( good job they are nice). An other amazing deal was when he bought 20 something horses in a good deal, heaven for a horse girl like me. Many many more deals some smaller some bigger. 

To go shopping ( any kind of shopping)  with a good deal loving pappa is interesting to say the least. In the supermarket he is on alert and scans all the good deals and sales. Buy three for two is great even if he don't really need one. Lately he has been buying a lot of frozen spinach, the deal is if you buy five bags you get a plate for free. He has managed to get a full set of plates. Do I need to say that the freezer is full of spinach. The good thing is that spinach is healthy last time it was whipped cream and pocket books.



Pappa/morfar Stefan Book is also a collector. Everything from nuts and bolts to all sorts of building machinery and material can be found here there and everywhere. I have been told that all pieces of wood taller then 50 cm is worth keeping. He has a lot of stuff indeed. A part from building related collections he has lately started to collect nice small collectors cars in different shapes and forms, there is cars high and low. Also DVD collections about tigers, dolphins and gardens. Huge art print collections from famous painters and a lot of CD:s with classical music.

Thank you for looking after us this week and see you soon again!

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 38/52 Örebro Autumn market in summer sun

  It was exciting to participate at my first market being back in Örebro, Sweden. It was an Autumn market in the beautiful setting of Karlslund Estate in Örebro. Most exhibitor were selling locally grown fruit, veggies and flowers. Also jams, marmelades, bakeries and cheeses. It was a sunny beautiful day and it attracted a lot of people. It was fun to finally again set up my display and show my products. The market stand/table I rented from the organizer and it was perfect size and cute. My best-sellers were my hats in smaller sizes. Amd to next market I need to make more fleece-lined hats since it gets cooler here in Swedem during the winter.
