We’ve had our 17th of May breakfast, and later we’re going to a restaurant. In between we’re watching clips from NRK, as tradition dictates:)
I’ve started a wedding blog in Norwegian here: http://www.trulsogida.wordpres s.com
I’ve spent the day looking at options for our winter trip this year, and I’m really happy with the itinerary we ended up with. The first eight days of the trip will be spent working in Gu...
Truls has just finished editing the pictures, so I’m sharing three of them in my blog. For the rest of the pictures, go to Truls’s blog here: Blågg.no Click on the pictures to make them b...
I don’t know what happened, last year my plants were either tiny or they died from some disease. This year, they’re not only thriving, I’m producing completely normal sized food! I ...
While I was in Norway, the cherry trees in the back yard flowered! The only problem with those trees is that the cherries are a bit too far away to pick from the balcony… The weather was good t...
My friend Kari is my go-to girl when it comes to gardening and tips and tricks around the house. She always has great suggestions, and I’ve learned a lot from her. The other day she told me abo...
And by that I mean plant update:)I like black and white apartments, but I prefer a colorful balcony! It’s nice with a bit of contrast. I had an old woolly sock that had so many holes it couldn&...
The Czech Republic is definitely a pork country. They’re very good at anything meaty here, but pork is the staple of the cuisine (or maybe I should spell it čůíšíňě to make it look more “...
While I don’t think gardening is for the impatient, this time things are going pretty fast! In a plant’s perspective, at least. We’re at day four, and already the bush tomatoes, bas...
Planting time! Three days ago, I got my collection of seeds and pots out, and went to Tesco to buy some potting earth. What I’ve planted so far is lavender, peas, basil, squash, tomatoes (both ...
…this! The beautiful KitchenAid that has taken up residence in our humble kitchen.
I admit I like being at home. There’s a reason why I spend so much time on finding things for the apartment, it is of course the fact that I’m here quite a lot. And today we’re havi...
Spring feels far away now, with colder temperatures than in Norway and frozen pipes. So I figured I could go out and buy some nice potted flowers so I can sit inside and pretend spring is here alread...
So, we haven’t had water since we came home from London. There was a plumber here yesterday trying to fix it, but not only was there no fixing of any sort, he also emptied the water in our heat...
I work from home, and up until now I have been sitting in the sofa when I work. It’s not the best place for my back, I sometimes get painful tensions from sitting incorrectly. So it was definit...
Truls, Kirsten and Per had all been there before, but it was my first visit. And I really liked the city! It was Tulip Day while we were there. That meant you could pick up to 20 tulips for free! The...
Yesterday was payday, and I just had to buy something for the apartment:) Once again from eBay, from one of the German sellers. It’s so nice to be so close to Germany and all the wonderful thin...
…was this snood, that works both as a scarf and a woolly hat.
Vienna was a wonderful place to start our weekend trip idea, mainly because we ended up being extremely social, but also because it is a beautiful and charming city with a lot of personality. We visi...
Since we’re conveniently located in the middle of Europe, we’ve decided to travel around by bus or train a lot more. Our first stop is Vienna, Austria, and we’re going there this we...
The days are getting longer and the evenings lighter, but I like to help it along a bit with the great storm light I got from my uncle for Christmas. Sometimes I let it stand on the table, and other ...
I haven’t been knitting for very long (ignoring feeble attempts in third grade), I started on Christmas Eve after getting two types of grey Hubro yarn from my parents. The yarn is really thick,...

We have a space under the stairs that hasn’t been used for anything (except the odd shop leftover that hasn’t been taken to the storage room/office/photo studio yet), and I finally found ...
NIB – Norske Interiørbloggere – has a new challenge each month. The January theme is global chic, and since I have both travel books and suitcases in the living room, I thought I could jo...
We’re back in Prague after a wonderful Christmas celebration and a nice and warm trip to Bangkok, Lars and Eline have been here for a couple of days, but sadly they left today. Speaking of Chri...
January: In January my blog was mostly about food, and I made a great chocolate cake I should make again some day soon. February: In February I didn’t take any pictures (boo!), but I went to No...
I’m back in Prague now, and the first thing I did when I cam home was to go out and buy Christmas decorations. A real Christmas tree won’t work very well when you’re mostly not ther...
Today is our last day in Hong Kong, tomorrow I go back to Prague, while Truls goes to Bangkok. I’m really looking forward to seeing family and friends again when I leave for Norway on Sunday, b...
