Woooh! Sorry for this long blog-break!
Here are some pictures from the past few days days. My sweet great grandmother (my grandmother's mother) turned 95 years, hurray;) Someone had painted her nails pink, she asked if the paint is going to stay on her nails until her next birthday:) She didn't really like it I think..

Yesterday we made sushi, not really Easter food but we're anyway not much into that tradition anymore. When I was a kid it was more fun, we decorated the house and dressed up as little witches or rabbits and went from door to door collecting candy in old coffeepots. That is an Easter tradition here in the North.

Hope you too had a nice holiday! And thank you all for your nice comments:)

vilka fina bilder! det där med naglarna känner jag igen. på mitt extajobb inom äldrevården målas naglarna chockrosa hejvilt och jag brukar fundera på vad anhöriga tycker om det och hur vårdtagaren egentligen känner. Ibland kanske de aldrig ens brukade ha nagellack innan!
