Spektakulär

As soon as a delivery arrives I get very excited.  So when Danish MENU arrived last Friday afternoon, lucky me was the one to receive it, unpacked it and got super thrilled! Stunning fresh designs! Over the weekend lots of the products became new favourites with our customers and got new homes!

Danish MENU is quality, functional, bold and good designs. Often theirs designs are award winning such as their thermo mugs, water carafe and our latest edition in the shop, the stunning jewellery tree in aluminium.  All their products comes in beautiful gift boxes and are our number one brand for wedding gifts. Here are some of the designs we have in the shop from MENU (and yes I know I have said stylish way to many times, but stylish design is what it is…stylish).

Personally I have not been able to resist a few products for my own home. Love my Verner Panton colourful bowls and storage jars. The Nordic Wool mugs, we use them daily now since they are our new favourites, just so lovely to drink from and very stylish. And in June when my birthday is I think I will wish for the bread basket set. Perfect for my knitting:)

So do join the fun and compete for one of the lovely MENU silicone “Dropp” bowl in the colourful spring leaf (green). Perfect on the lunch/dining table filled with rolls, salad or perhaps a trifle!

P.S. Each person gets one entry in the Competition, there isn’t an extra chance every time you share

The shop is receiving more and more seasonal designs and it is getting all colourful again. So it is changing from day to day which is so nice and make me happy.

I hope you will have a lovely weekend and please do pop into the shop and say hello if you are in the area.

We took the opportunity to keep the shop closed on Easter Sunday so we could invite all our lovely girls working in the shop with their families to come over for Easter lunch  Swedish style… well all of us girls are Swedish except Emma our very own Aussie.

So it was a squash and a squeeze, but so lovely to have us all gather at the same time. I know the pictures are not very good and I kind of forgot to take photos as well but here only a a few, and none of us! Terrible:)

Egg, herring, meatballs, Jansson's temptation and lots more yummy food

Who needs messy water colours when you can use felt tip pens just as well to decorate the eggs

Åsa made a fantastic carrot cake, only managed to get a photo after people went for it:)

Emma our own "Masterchef" had baked the most fantastic brownies and rockcakes...yummy

Easter in Sweden is a bit different than here, but it has also changed a bit since I was a child as well. We use to dress up as witches and knock on peoples doors asking for sweets. Kind of like Halloween I guess, but we also gave a lovely handmade pictures as well. I remember my dad used to hide paper Easter eggs around the house filled with pick and mix… amazing how they coped with us children all sugared up!?

As I remember it a Easter lunch/dinner is not far off our Christmas lunch, a bit more fish perhaps. We obviously eat a lot of herring, lax, egg and lamb at Easter and rinse it down with a strong Schnapps and sing silly songs.

I need to take some photos of us who works in the shop…one day!
