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!

Karatänuppdatering

Det har gått 15 dagar sedan jag sist gjorde en uppdatering om Corona statusen här i Düsseldorf Eftersom vi när skolorna beslutades att stängas var sjuka och ganska rejält sjuka hela gänget så kände vi först inte av hur livet i karantän eller isolering var eftersom vi även under vanliga omständigheter hade hållt oss hemma. Om vi hade Corona det får vi aldrig veta eftersom dom inte testar här i nuläget, men jag har aldrig blivit så risig av en vanlig förkylning med hosta, tungt i bröstet och väldigt väldigt lite energi. Det positiva var att det var inga problem att få kontakt med vården och den hjälp vi behövde här i Düsseldorf, vi ringde innan för att kolla om vi verkligen fick komma in med feber och det fick vi fast genom särskilda ingångar på sjukhuset. Känns tryggt också med den mindre barnklinik dit barnen går som vi hittills alltid har fått tid samma dag och även för oss vuxna walk in klinik utan att behöva ringa innan eller långa köer. Jag ska tillägga att vi inte har någon dyr p...

IF: Ocean

Ocean is this weeks topic on Illustration Friday.  Prague is cold and snowy at the moment. A nice warm summer day is far away and so are the ocean. But we keep dreaming of warm sunny days and the ocean far away.  Havet är veckans inspirationsord på Illustration Friday. Prag är snöigt och kallt idag. Sommarens varma väder är långt bort och det är havet också. Men vi drömmer om soliga dagar och havet långt borta.

A hate-love relationship

 I have a love-hate relationship to washing. I love the feeling of putting things in the washing machine. If I don't have things in the washing basket ready for washing I go for a hunt around the apartment looking for things that can do with a wash. This behavior is totally inherited from my mother who could ask me to take clothes off so she could wash it ( possible that they also smelled a little horsey..) As much as I love the washing moment I hate the feeling of having to fold and put away washed and dried cloths.And don't even mention ironing, I refuse, a crease or two has never hurt anyone... These days the washing pile is bigger but at the same time more bright and colorful. Sweet little clothes for a sweet little girl. Jag har ett speciellt förhållande till att tvätta kläder, en passionerad hatkärlek. Kärleken riktas mot att få stoppa in kläder i tvättmaskinen för tvätt. Finns det inte mycket i tvättkorgen letar jag rätt på något som kan behöva en tvätt. ...
