Nu har vi fantastiskt fint vader i Falkenberg. Ata frukost utomhus i solen ar nagot av det basta som finns. Langtar tills vi har en egen uteplats att kunna sitta pa.
Under dagen smorjer jag in mig med massor av solkram, sitter ute och fixar med mina gamla lador tills jag blir sa svettig att jag maste ga in ett tag. Inte illa. Avkopplande i mitt “arbetande”:)

Nar vi var i Vetlanda gick vi och kollade pa deras vagg med “hollywood” stjarnor. Jag har tidigare bara sett min farfars stjarna pa kort, sa nu fick jag antligen se den i verklighet. For er som inte vet, min farfar Erik Nilsson grundade hjalporganisationen Erikshjalpen (las mer HERE). 

It’s fantastic weather here in Falkenberg now. Eating breakfast outside is one of the best things in life. Looking forward to when we have our own outdoor space to sit at.
During the day I put lots of sunscreen on myself, sitting outside and dealing with my old boxes until I get so sweaty that I have to go inside for a while. Not bad. Relaxing while “working”:)

When we were in Vetlanda we went to see their wall of “hollywood” stars. I have only seen my grandfathers star on pictures, so now I finally got to see it. For those of you who doesn’t know, my grandfather Erik Nilsson founded the help organization Erikshjalpen (read more HERE).

Saklart maste jag tipsa om varldens basta butik: Lakritsroten. Ligger pa Sveavagen i Stockholm. De har allt man kan tanka sig med lakrits (och aven sadant man inte kan tanka sig, haha). Den har gangen visste jag vad jag ville ha innan jag gick dit och holl mig till det. Ar du ett lakritsmonster precis som jag sa maste du ga dit nar du ar i Stockholm!

Since I’m gonna be in Smaland and be busy all day today, I give you a timed/pre-made post. 
Of course I want to tell you about the worlds best store: Lakritsroten. It’s on Sveavagen in Stockholm. They have everything you can think of with licorice (and also stuff you can’t think of, haha). This time I knew what I wanted before I went there and I was sticking to that. If you are a licorice monster like me you just have to go there when you’re in Stockholm!

Igar var det Sveriges Nationaldag och det firade vi i Vetlanda i Smaland. Vi halsade pa min kara farmor och min faster med man. Hann aven saga hej till en av mina kusiner med. 
Vi kollade i gamla fotoalbum, uppdaterade om livet och at god mat. Vi promenerade bort till dar de hade Nationaldagsfirande, men vi kom mot slutet sa vi missade det mesta. Traffade folk som vi inte har sett pa lange lange och kollade gamla Smalandska klassrum. Nar vi kom tillbaka blev det rabarberpaj med vaniljsas (mmmmm!) innan vi tog bilen och akte tillbaka till Vastkusten igen. 

Yesterday it was Sweden’s National Day and we celebrated in Vetlanda in Smaland. Visit my dear grandma and my aunt with husband. Also got a chance to say hi to one of my cousins. 
We looked in old photo albums, updated about life and ate good food. We walked over to were they had National Day celebration, but we got there so late so we missed most of it. Met people we haven’t seen in a long long time and walked through old Smaland classrooms. When we came back we had rhubarb pie with vanilla sauce (mmmmm!) before we drove back to the West Coast again.
