Back in Blue

So the Allince won, as I hoped but on the down side. the Swedish democrats made it into the Senate.
Sweden is getting colder.
I had hoped that the other parties would have opened up and invited them in to the debates. Monsters bursts in the light of day.

I usually don't endorse violence but some people just bring out the evil side of me.
But we'll see how they act in civilized company - it's not really their scene, is it??!?
On the upside New York was great. Shopping, street life, good food, cool people - loves it!

We took a helicopter ride over Manhattan which was fierce. I saw the WTC/Ground Zero. We actually left on Sept 11th and I spent that day at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
I never went to Moma since it is opposite of the Manolo Blahnik store - a girl has to prioritize sometimes.

Now bedtime. I need my beauty sleep

Take care
Love/E

Oh Wow

Long time and no updates.
I have been a busy bee.
Once we came back from holiday in Italy I just did some laundry and repacked and was off to Italy again for a conference trip with work. We went to Milan and Lago Maggiore. Stayed at fierce hotels and partied and some nice places.
Star Rosa Grand in Milan and Hotel Iles Borromes by the lake.
It was very nice. A co worker and me (we both love our shoes) managed to do the enitre shopping street of Milan. She picked up a fabolous pair of Jimmy Choos and I found a Prada knitted sweater. When in Milan - buy Prada.

And now to save money I am officially not shopping. I haven't bought any clothes, shoes or make up since I came back from Milan on Aug 1st and I am not allowed to buy anything until we go to New York.

We did however buy a new bed since it was a special offer and the old bed is not comfortable any more.
Eventually we decided to buy a Jensen bed - it is supposed to be very good for the back. They buidl it on demand which is cool so it will be delivered once we are back from New York.

I have booked 2 really nice hotels in New York The GEM in Soho and the Alex. I also booked us dinner at Riingo, Marcus Samuelssons restaurant - will be fierce. Loves it she does!

Now I should get back to work. I have to arrange a herring plate for one of our bosses from Paris. I am not only a PA I am also a cook and a waitres. Love my life sometimes....

Take care

And finally....

The princess got her Prince and I am sure they will live happily ever after.
I mean how can you not adore a guy who gets up in front of royalty from around the world and explains how much he loves you :)
I think even Mr S got a bit misty eyed.
I've been busy... almost too busy. Work is quite hectic but I have some things to look forward to.
Next week my vacation starts son next Sunday I'll leaving on a jetplane for Italy.
We are flying to Rome and then I don't know. Since we are a modern family we share the work so I booked (and paid for) the flight tickts and Mr S has(n't yet) booked and paid for the accomodation. He sais he has a few options. He refuses to tell me what they are so I don't know if I should worry or not...
I know he wants wi-fi, I want a nice bed, good food, good location, no kids, clean, comfortable, at least 3 stars, a decen cocktail bar, a good chef, nice service and some hot Italians to look at. As you can tell: I'm easy to please ;)

And then of course New York in September....

Take care/Love E

Tap tap tap

Mr Henri and me are taking tap dancing lessons. And it's safe to say I am not very good in spite of the fact that I used to dance. I took dancing classes from the age of 7 until I was about 20 and injured my knee.
Tap is a lot more difficult than it looks. Our teacher makes it look so easy and when I do it... let's just say it doesn't really look as cool.
But it's fun and I don't give up so I have signed up for another 10 lessons.

I have been looking into hotels i New York and all the ones I like are really expensive so I am thinking about renting an apartment for a week. I suppose renting an apartment will feel more like I am actually living there. I wonder if I'd get away with acting like a New Yorker?!?!
Mr S is in Atlanta at the moment. He called me today and told me that I wolud love it. It is a very "black" town and not in a ghetto black way but in the fierce and succesful black way. I like that.

I met up with a friend on Saturday and... well she has way to much time on her hands. Apparently there is a conspiracy involving the Illuminate, the music indusrty and almost every one else in the world. I thought that the Illuminate was made up by Dan Brown but apparently not... They exist and according to some they are about to take over the world.
Well, it will be interesting to see what happens. I personally don't believe it but it's like with anything: some do and some don't.

Friday I am going to sis' place and she and her man are treating us to champagne :) I do look forward to the champagne but not really to see her man. He is so not the prson I would chose to drink champagne with on a Friday night. I hope they have stocked up: it's Miss Ingrid, Mr S and me and when it comes to champagne there is really no bottom.
Saturday we are having Mr S' friends over for dinner and on Sunday I hope I can go to the movies and watch Clash of the Titans. No great reviews but how can you not love the line "Release the Kraken"? And hot Dane Mads Mikkelsen

Now back to work

Take care

Spring is in the air

Winter seems to be losing the battle. The snow is melting and the sun is shining. Yesterday I took a walk on the ice, possibly the last one this year.

Now I have booked the flights to New York and all I need now is a hotel. Any ideas? I want to spend one night, probably the last one, in a horribly luxorious hotel. I think my husband is worth it.
I am also checking out some restaurants to visit. I'd love to go to Aquavit and 21 and of course go shopping. My shopping partner H is joining :)

Asked sis and her man F is they wanted to come. She said no since that week F's son is staying with them. And since she can't (or won't) go she wrote the whole thing as a bad idea thinking that no one would want to join...
I don't like that about her: the selfishness. And it hasn't improved since she started living with F. In that way they are very much alike...
They did one thing that is completely unbelievable. He went on a one week skiing holiday with his soon to be ex-wife and son. I would not like it if my boyfriend went away with his ex.


Well is it not my problem, my problem, and a very nice one, is to find plan a nice stay i New York.

Take care
