Bulevardi


Santa Claus gave me a curtain... by Vallila interior ... It's called Bulevardi and I LOVE IT!!!

Storms and smiles!


Life is a bit stormy right now, but the elections went as they should have gone and now there is the second round... Number 2 rules!!!


And then there are little things that make one smile and feel happy inside... like this flash mob dance performed once again by Finnair personnel! GO FINNAIR! YOU ROCK!!

Election Day

2 - PEKKA HAAVISTO (vihr)

3 - TIMO SOINI (ps)

4 - PAAVO VÄYRYNEN (kesk)

5 - PAAVO LIPPONEN (sdp)

6 - SAULI NIINISTÖ (kok)

7 - SARI ESSAYAH (kd)

8 - EVA BIAUDET (r)


9 - PAAVO ARHINMÄKI (vas)



Today Finland votes for a new President... an election that was pretty obvious from the start has becme more interesting as days have gone by... I didn't have a chance to vote this time, it's just too far to travel right now, but I sure know who I would have voted! Hoping to see him on round 2... 


The funny thing is that if all the people I call friends were the only ones voting there would be no doubt on who would win... I think atleast 95% voted Number 2!

      Half an hour later there were no birds anywhere anymore...

From a Friend


             From a Friend... the kind with a capital F... 


           Brings good feelings to these 'not so great' days.


Next week the waiting will end and the action will begin, so it'll be better for sure!

Hats

 I love this hat... and the button that  tikru gave me for Christmas a few years ago... and I had attached a lovely flower that Mevrouw Walvis had given me as well... and then I lost the whole bunch at Christmas and I'm so mad at myself... =(

Then there's the Rikke Hat made in Manos Del Uruguay Silk Blend... a perfect hat.


















Then there is Quynn by Woolly Wormhead knit in lovely yarn spun by Zeska ... 
















                                               
And last but not least there is 
Muikkuset Hat by Mari Muinonen made for Matteo in 
Filatura di Crosa yarn called Pampas... lovely soft yarn and a really warm and fitting hat!
