Nails and lunch

Back from the salon where I had my nails done,  I am now having lunch whilst reading the details of one property we viewed yesterday. 

Breakfast at the Grazing Goat

This morning Bear and I indulged ourselves with a quality breakfast, coffee and reading the papers at the Grazing Goat, after dropping Sean off at nursery. Just as last Wednesday we have a couple of viewings lined up today locally. And with my Mum coming over yet again tomorrow , I am feeling very excited and positive :-)

Happy Wednesday, folks!

Midsummer in London

Flowers in your hair on Midsummer is compulsory!

I set off for the park with plenty of food and drinks to last all day

With girlies Susie and Vanessa drinking wine from plastic cups, very classy indeed LOL

The weather turned gorgeous later in the afternoon and more and more people kept showing up

Happy Midsummer!

Sean celebrating Midsummer here in London 2009, only 7 months old

In Sweden we celebrate Midsummer, an extremely popular holiday, today - Its a from what I gather a pagan celebration of the Summer solstice, which was associated with fertility and farming, although these days, the Swedes and the other Nordic countries celebrate for I suppose the tradition, and of course just for the sake of celebration LOL

So today, I really miss my family back home today, and wish I could be there with them and join in the celebration.
Imagine dying to eat traditional Swedish food (pickled herring etc), dress a maypole, dance around it and drink and sing all night long. Sounds crazy, eh? But ask any Swede and they will no doubt agree with me! Have a fab weekend and enjoy the warm weather that'll arrive in the capital tomorrow :-)

Maroush Deli

Choosing lunch at the best deli Edgware Road has got to offer, always prove to be a difficult task!

Wednesdays = quality time

As part of our midweek quality time-plan, Bear and I take Sean to nursery every Wednesday morning for an 8am drop off. Here you see Bear leaving the nursery premises in Connaught Village, yesterday morning

We then went to The Portman for  breakfast (becoming routine now lol)

 They do a very nice cooked brekkie with no grease at all, and only use organic free range products.  I chose poached eggs with my bacon, sausages and mushroom.

  On our way to view a couple of town houses and one mews house for sale in Marlyebone as we are planning to expand in the near future. 

Yesterday's playdate

Despite the 11 month age gap, Sean and Olivia have so much fun (check out their red and sweaty faces from jumping on the sofa together)

Olivia's mum, Alina, is my longest known friend here in London (we met 2001, i.e 10 years now!)

Sunday at the Marylebone Fayre

Selfridges splurge

Earlier in the week I bought a pair black velour track suit bottoms for myself and a navy blue cap for my little man

On repeat

I cannot stop listening to Rihanna's stunning new reggae-tinged track! Guessing I'm not the only one addicted as it's the most viewed clip on YouTube now!
