I love my mum!

My mum and sister came to visit for four days last week. We had such a fabulous time and were also lucky with the weather - 25 C for three days in a row is not a common forecast for the UK! Highlights included lazy Thursday lunch in South Kensington, Women's Polo Cup at Cowdray Park (with picnic and rose of course) and rounded off with a family BBQ party in Sussex....

Now back in Sweden, Mother's Day is coming up on this Sunday (30th May). What do you do to remind your mum of how important she is to you, and how much you love her? I would like to hand make and send over some of these:

Älva London

A human like creature from the Swedish mythology. She is often a young beautiful female, and you can sometimes see her dancing in the mist. The 'älva' can be as big as a human or as small as a bug. She is dressed in white and will try to lure you into her dance. But be careful; if you join her dance you will forget yourself and be just like her kind.

Thai Square

T & I went to Thai Square last Friday, just by Putney Bridge. The bar is not so impressive, especially not early in the evening when it is still empty, but we soon moved upstairs to the front table of the restaurant. A great venue for a bithrday dinner, which this happened to be. Fantastic food, medium priced, though very slow service... Green curry highly recommended, but be warned, all dishes are hottern than advised in the menu!
