What a Weekend!

Good things and some bad things...

SATURDAY

My car doesn't work. Great! What a piece of s**t! I have to call a tow truck on Monday...

I bought this pretty little bedside table from a flea market (Kumpulan kyläjuhlien Kilometrin kirpputori) for 10 euros. A little sanding and few coats of paint. That's all it needs!

Good food and good company. I spent the Saturday night in with my sister and her little daughter. We ordered chinese food and watched the American Idol.

On my way home, around 10 pm, I noticed a stream of smoke coming out of the woods. I figured out quicky, that it wasn't just a campfire. A little forest, near our public library, was on fire. A call to an emergency number and the help was on its way...


SUNDAY

I went to an open house with my mom. We were just curious...
Tested my car... no luck! Tow truck seems to be the answer this time.
Took a few flower pics in my parents' garden.


Ate the "wrong" leftovers from Saturday... I accidentally took home the food that my sister had ordered. The spicy one...

Found a chocolate bar with Best Before date 3.8.2007 and ate it...

Fever

Bike fever! I'm suffering from bike fever! Have you had it? I got it from my brother, who bought a new cool bike last week. He called me just few minutes ago to let me now, that his black beauty has arrived. Woohoo!!!

The golden oldie... a 1960's design icon Jopo by Helkama! I would so love to own this white beauty. Or maybe army green... or black...
Basic bicycle with foot brakes and no gears, just like Jopo... This yellow Saint by Tunturi I would also love to own. It's pretty! Black or white would be my first choice, but they make only candy colors.

Friday Night

Just me and Desperate Housewives (with bowl of popcorn)...

D is for Domino

My little niece is now six and a half weeks old. She's such a cutie! Since I live quite close to my sister, I've been lucky to be able to follow my little niece growing up. I'm looking forward to the time, when she's a bit older and we can spend some quality time together. Read books, play games... like this wooden Domino I bought from flea market few months ago.

"Patch Of The Earth"

Nishimoto, no... Ishitomo, no... Last week I was trying to remember who is the artist of this card, that I have had almost 4 years now. Luckily Google is my friend... only few minutes and I had the name. Oh yes, that's the one! Yoshitomo Nara, a Japanese Pop artist. And, of course, Wikipedia tells all.

Under The Cherry Tree

In my parent's backyard.
