The best way to reach to God is through love.

Napkin rings for wedding dinner,


Today I started with napkin rings for wedding dinner. Since it is so hard to find nice ones, then I decided to make self ones, what will be exactly what I want and will be made in those colors what I want and what would be fit with wedding color theme. 6 are made and also have been cut out, now only 54 will be need to make more. Will see, could I do tomorrow some more or the time will fly away. The one I will put here on picture is decorative. It will be similar, just it will have different thread color.

Hen party,

On a way to Bowling arena. Just before facebook needed to be updated :)
 Yesterday I got an wonderful surprise from my friends. They had planned a hen party for me, since in the end of the month I will get married. Yesterday was a wonderful day at least for me. I hope that girls self was satisfied as well.
Girls, who planned my hen party and to whom I am very thankful.
First my morning started as usual. Since it was Saturday and weekend, when we had candle making with Lions club for a last weekend for this year. Kristi was also there for a first time and learned how to make candle crowns. Since she is sewing herself a evening dress for our wedding, when she had told me day before in evening, that she needs bit advice and that after the candle making I could go to her place and help her and wait until my fiancée would go through his work place for make print out of his things and make a copy of one embroidery book what Kristi should also get, since she got pattern from me. I had no idea, that this was not like that. It had been just for me to tell, at least I will know next time now :D

When we was waiting our turns ;)
So, when we had arrived to Kristi's I was asked, no right word would be demand :) , to take a fast shower and change my clothes. I told, that I can't do, since I have no clothes and no money bag with me. Last one I knew, because my dear fiancée had called to Kristi and told her, that I have missed to take my moneybag with me from my car. Kristi went out to our work car and came back with 2 bags and told, that I do have my clothes here. Hmm, I thought, since I had not planned anything and wanted to go home and relax :) Obviously it was not my way :D So, when I asked from Kristi who else comes, was she so sure, that it will be only we two :D Yeah sure :) Don't trust your friends, when your wedding day comes closer  :) Soon came also Mairi who drove us to bowling arena. Shortly after arrived also Gerli and there we played blowling until 10 minutes to 6. It was fun. At least for me. Two glasses of wine at Kristi's home made it's work very well. At least we had so much fun for it.
I try...

... and again I found the edge...
...and my score for first 3 turns was 0 ;)
In the end I lost with many points ;) So, we must hope that I have luck with love ;)
One point, the bowling ball did not go to that direction as I wanted. On the contrary, it went behind. to the neighbors table. We all got good laugh out of it. Other thing I managed to do, what beginning of one game series, I managed to get only 0 points on my turns. That was not planned either. In the end score I got last place :D As they say, if there is no luck on winning the game, there will be luck on love and I have got that luck. At least for now.
Some of the good food
After bowling we took a bus to city center and went to eat in Greek restaurant "Pallas Athena" It was nice. There we also ended our day. Had very good time. Very good food, good company and even we got entertainment by live music and belly dancer. And of course, drinks :)


Day ended, when my fiancée came and picked us up and took us all home. In the beginning I understood, that there was planned  that I will stay over a night at Kristi's home, but since my dear fiancée had not put my heart medicine with all my wardrobe, he needed to take me home :) But that did not changed the fact, that my evening was wonderful and I loved it.
Thank you girls for it. I will also put some pictures now up and after I get all pictures from Kristi, I will put some more up, since when you also all can see, how good was our food and some pictures of entertainment as well.

White choclate mousse with blueberries,


In this Thursday I made white chocolate mousse with blueberries. It was something what went very fast and what tasted also very well.

Ingredients for mousse:

200 gr. white chocolate
50 gr. butter
50 ml orange juice
200 dl. whip cream
200 gr. 10% quark
200 gr. 1% quark
1 table spoon sugar
150 gr. blueberries

Melt chocolate and butter. Add orange juice and mix it all until it is evenly melted.
Whip up whip cream and mix slowly all sugar and quark in. Easier to mix it with spoon. Mix in melted chocolate. Pour it out to dessert glasses and decorate with blueberries. Can be used both frozen or fresh ones.
Let it stand on fridge at least 30 minutes.

Dagens visdomsord / Today's words of wisdom,


Försök aldrig tvinga andra att förändras. Ge dem friheten att förändras naturligt av sig själva och  sin egen takt för att de vill det. De kommer att vilja det när de upptäcker hur värdefull och givande din egen förändring är.

Att inspirera andra att förändras till det bättre är verkligen ädelt, men det kan du bara göra genom att lämna dem ifred och själv bli mer ädel.


Never try to force others to change. Give them the freedom to change naturally of themselves and their own pace because they want it. They'll want it when they discover how valuable and rewarding your change is.

To inspire others to change for the better is certainly noble, but it is only possible by leaving them alone and self become more precious.
