I told you I would write a little about the stuff I put in my face and I can tell you it’s a little process. I don’t use that super duper expensive products, but Ole Henriksen serum (that I can’t live without) is worth every penny.  Here are some of the stuff:

Muni, was the first one to pick and she picked "A Indian good Wife" and I liked it, but had many opinions about it. But there was a wild discussion, cause this is how I feel: Depending on who reads the book, depending how you grew up and where you are now, you are going to feel very different about the book.  For example, if my mom who came to Sweden during the 80s read this book, she could probably relate to the character Leila more then most girls today. Many things I could relate to and understand and other things made me irritated. However, I love books that have any desi in it. So I am happy I read it …

I have a theory, why can't weekends be 3 days a week and workingdays 4 days a week, I would vote for any president that implemented that rule :)

Our weekends are always packed and its not that we have plans all weekend, it’s the errands that take most time. We usually wake up late and try to hit the gym on Saturday mornings or go for a run in a park and then come home and eat a big breakfast. I am, as you know a big big fan of weekend breakfast of brunch.

My Hubby also bought me a pair of shoes that I have wanted for a while (My first Tory Burch), its something I didn’t really know about when I lived in Sweden, but a lot of girls have them here and even I fell in love. They are a bit pricy for a pair of ballerinas, but as in any pricy items I will wear them with LOVE.

Saturday night, we went to DC for Ivy’s birthday party at a restaurant called Hudson and I had the most amazing fish. After we continued celebrating at Eden. The night was fun and we met with some friends we hadn’t seen in a while and we weren’t planning to be out so late that night, but we did.

Today I had one of those amazing productive days, even though I didn’t finish all my stuff that was on my to-do-list for this weekend. Cleaning, washing clothes, dusting, mopping dry cleaning, folding clothes, unpacking another suitcase and some other stuff. I also made it to Home Goods to buy some stuff for the house and Target. My hubby is busy with Football on Sundays so I don’t mind doing this stuff, I personally think its fun doing errands sometimes.

After I was done I went for a run (4 miles) and came home to have dinner with Hubbz and now I am all dead dead dead and ready for this new week. As I have told you there is some stuff going on with my life, and eventually I’ll let you know, promise.

This week hubby is traveling again, and I feel like I just got used to having him home, but I am so dead when I come home on weekdays that it will go fast.  I also have to call my worst nightmare: THE DENTIST!!!!!!

Ciao amigos have to sleep…

Hello Amigos...


I am a cupcake lover and these are from Yogicake with my J on it :) Sooooo good!



Cheers to another year of making amazing memories

I usually wear dresses to work, but I love when I find pants that fits me perfect, I love these two that I would love to have in my closet, por favor. 

So one day you are happy and one day you are sad, but that’s life right? Well definitely my life, but the most important part is to take advice and love from those you can get support from. I always feel like I want to distance myself from the world when I am upset, however, its not the solution.

I have some stuff going on in my life and its not easy to keep strong all day long….however, I will never give to find what I am looking for. With time I’ll let you know.

Yesterday was my birthday and my hubby gave me tickets to MADONNAAAA!!! And I am going to pick a new wallet, I really need it, I was looking at Marc Jacobs, but I might go with Tory Burch. I also got an amazing top from Zara and some accessories AND A LOT OF Cupcakes and Macaroons.

Thank you all for your B-day wishes….HEART U!



Pure love, I wish I could wear it everyday...

Day 1
Dinner with an amazing view and walking around amazing lively Taksim and eating turkish icecream (they always put on a show when you buy icecream)









Day 2
Turkish Hamam and night cruise ( I forgot my camera that night) and lots of turkish tea.

























Day 3
Blue Mosque and Haga Sofia, both amazing places, a visit to Grand Bazar and dinner with water, good food and full moon, I was very happy. Also ended with turkish tea and Hoocka. 






















Day 4
Trip to Princess Islands, rented bikes and got allergy from horses, since there is like 10000000 horses everywere. However, amazing lunch with amazing view and finished up with boat trip back to Istanbul watching the sunset. 

I heart Istanbul.....

 

Means Thank you in turkish, the only word I learned :)

So how jet lagged am I, SUPER JETLAGGED!

So I am back and the day is upside down, I came home from work yesterday and couldn’t move from the couch at all. I wanted to work out but my body was frozen. Today it feels a little better and I hope I will be recovered by the end of this week. The weather in DC is very warm, but I think fall is coming in a couple of weeks.

Let me talk about Turkey, so I have to say that I absolutely loved Istanbul. It’s a perfect city for me and my Hubby. We loved the food, and it’s very lively. Some people prefer piece and quit, but we love a lively place with lots to do.

In 4 night we got to eat amazing food, both authentic and more modern food, see amazing architectures and views. The first night we went to this restaurant in Taksim (The area we stayed in) called 360 Istanbul. The view was amazing and the food was ok, but because if the amazing view it was totally worth it. But I was surprised how chilly it got at night, I didn’t expect that. But Istanbul is surrounded by water and I can see why it gets chilly at night, but daytime it’s heaven.

The second day we had authentic Turkish food and we were in love with the traditional Adana kebab and everything else. Its everything we like and I am very inspired to learn this at home. We did the tour thing to the Asian side and saw the Blue mosque and Sofia and also spent some time at the Grand Bazaar. The Bazaar is extremely BIG and we were lost many times, but you can go around for hours. They have a lot of fake brands, which might be tempting for some people, but I decided that I wasn’t interested to have a fake bag, first because they still cost over 100 dollar and I’ll buy my bag when I can afford a real one J We bought a nice tea set that I liked and I am excited to try it with some Turkish tea and hooka at home.

We also had dinner next to the Bosphorous  canal and ate amazing fish while looking at the moon with an amazing view. The last day we enjoyed the day by taking the boat to one of the four princess islands. The islands don’t have any cars, therefore the only transportations is by bike, walking or horse carriage. It was absolutely beautiful, however, I am allergic to horses and my nose was dying. BUT I fought it and managed to keep stable with a lot of sneezes. We did have lunch at this top, high in the mountains and I just wanted to freeze time, cause it was so beautiful and for a little moment I didn’t even sneeze.

Overall, we loved it and we will definitely go back, hopefully with our families. The city describes us, the combination between east and west. Best of both worlds. …..



If I could freeze time....dinner at one of the Princess islands...do I need to say more?

I heart Uppsala + Stockhom = Hem

Meza lunch with my family, cousin and bro's. How I will miss these moments...

10 days felt like 10 seconds, and I didn't get the time to meet all of my friends, but I had an amazing time. One night, the guys were in downtown Uppsala and I stayed at home. My mom and I talked before she went to sleep and then I sat next to dad while he was sufing on the net. I loved that moment, so simple but so real. Just hanging out with my amazing parents, how I will miss them. 

This trip was too short, but amazing. I feel like I realized who I love and who I miss but also how I realized that my life is here in the states now with my amazing Hubby. The thought of not seeing my family and friends for a while hurts a lot. But I have met amazing people here in US and I am happy and blessed to have them close to me. For everyone I didn't meet, I missed you but hopefully I'll see you all soon. 

PS. Snoop Doggy has moved to US with me tihihihii
