The Bookworm is BACK!

I LOVE BOOKS, I proudly name myself bibliophile number one--but lately there's been somewhat of a draught in my reading. I read this amazing book, The Last Good Man by Danish writer A J Kazinski, pseudonym for Anders Rønnow Klarlund & Jacob Weinreich, and ever since I've found it difficult to get into anything new. But then I saw The Hunger Games a while back and I decided to buy the books, which I did in London and I'm HOOKED!!! I love Katniss, Peeta & Haymitch and yesterday I dove into the third part. Dreading the end of an amazing suite, but so glad I've read it. If you haven't--run to your nearest bookstore and get it!

I'm not short of new books to sink my teeth into, and yesterday my beloved Anders added to the list: No Angel by Jay Dobyns. It's the real story of federal agent Jay Dobyns, who sort of sold his soul to the devil and decided to infiltrate Hell's Angels. He lived with them for two years and this is his story. Exciting!

It's the Small Things...

...that can really make or break you. Today I'm on a high! Partly because I've gotten a good night's sleep and partly because I've been out on my first jog/walk in over a week, partly because I love my new shower-gel and lotion from Body Shop (Pink Grapefruit) and partly thanks to Mark Salling (Noah Puckerman in Glee)... So, nothing extraordinary, just everyday life and it's moments.

I smell FANTASTIC! =)

Yum!

Mark Salling is H O T and I love his voice and mohican!

Nobody's Gonna Rain on My Parade...

...or in this case: wedding... I realized I knew the perfect song to go with yesterday's piece so here she is once again, the one and only: Lea Michele!

My Slightly Delusional Heroes!

I'm sick. Again. So sick of being sick! It's like the forth time in three months... I should've never stopped smoking!
Well, the upside is that I can allow myself to spend lots and lots of time in front of the TV and yesterday I finished season 4 of Grey's Anatomy, one of my favourite-series. So, this morning (erhm, around lunch...) when I woke up--I drove to the store and bought the 5:th season and I'm watching episode 4 right now. I've loved the story and the characters from the start, which is quite funny since I'm terribly afraid of hospitals myself. But I'm mesmerized by their skill, their perfect knowledge in the OR and how totally messed up their private lives are, just like for us mortal people! Sometimes I recognize things so badly, sometimes I cry because of an emotionally tough case, sometimes I laugh my heart out thanks to something George says -- somehow I'm always influenced one way or the other. Also, one of the most beautiful, non skeletal, women in the business is in: Sara Ramirez as Dr. Callie Torrez:

Isn't she beautiful?

Who is YOUR favorite at Seattle Grace?

My First Musical...

I'm in love! Well, you've probably suspected that before since I write quite a lot about Anders... But I'm also in love with: musicals! I've suspected it for long, but after tonight I know it for sure.

Though I must say, I think, that it's probably even better if you haven't seen the movie first... I have--and I LOVE it and especially the cast. Meryl Streep is such an amazingly versatile actress and I think that this is one of her best roles ever.Also I love Stellan and Bill Andersson has been changes to Bill Something from Croydon, which bothered me a bit. My overall impression of the male-characters is that they pale in comparison to Stellan, Colin Firth & Pierce Brosnan, though they are actors and maybe not as skilled singers...
And I didn't much care for the scene with Sophie's nightmare, but other than that--amazing!
Sky's friends were hilarious, as was Tanya. The women who played as Donna & Sophie were extraordinary singers!
We didn't have good seats at all, but that didn't bother at all, we missed out on nothing.
Pretty cool that ABBA's music has hit so big and that the show still sells out full houses! For me it's a memory for life and next time I hope to visit Broadway.
I have more things to discuss concerning the beauty/weight issue, but it'll have to wait...
Now we'll catch a few hours of sleep before tomorrow's breakfast hunt and a day spent at museums. First out: British Museum of National History and since that might take a few hours, I'll get back to you on the next point in out itinerary...
Went to Starbuck's at West End and got the wrong order, I did think that it was the most disgusting cafe mocha I've ever had... =D

Anders is already snoring, so I better hit the pillow as well!

Here's To Us!

I need to finish this day with some kind of celebration, a toast to all the beautiful people out there and what better way to do that than with a song with the most talented person I've ever seen or heard: Ms Lea Michele from the amazing cast of Glee?

So, Here's To Us!

The Sweet Scent Of...

I'm a huge fan of  candles and I also connect scents with memories easily, so scented candles are one of my favorite things when it comes to "decorating" at home. When I discovered Yankee Candles--I thought someone was yanking my tail, they are absolutely amazing!!! So, if you have a birthday or other festivities coming up--there's a big chance I might give you one of these amazing candles.

You can buy them at Yankee Candle Sweden, UK or US, and these are my favorites:

Cherry Blossom

Home Sweet Home

Evening Air

Clean Cotton

Sweet Honeysuckle

Which one is or will become YOUR favorite this spring?
