One of the reasons why I love to be married to my Bo is that he can make all things I have in my mind. For example this cabinet. A quick napkin drawing was just enough - I Love it!!

After a couple coats of paint (I hate painting MDF) and all the dramatic shelving problems involved, it turned out super cute.



This cabinet was actually easier to decorate as the open shelving I did on the other side of the kitchen. We use this cabinet for tea and coffee and because tea and coffee products always come in nice boxes (if you don't mind to spend a bit) it's easier to make everything look good. For example the Celestial Seasonings teas come in lovely, artsy boxes. I also bought some Chinese tea tins when I was last in New York to add some color. I'm absolutely in love with the cabbage bowls I found on eBay and that tea cozy. I also still love my pink Bodum jelly kettle, unfortunately they don't sell them anymore.



A bowl of lemons and limes are a cheap way to add some color and something living to a room. They are also really good for your health and tasty in teas. I found the book steps in the garbage and took it home and now is functional for picking stuff from the top shelf.

Something completely different. I have such bad hey fevers this year that I can't go outside at all. I've tried everything but nothing works. I went to the doctor and he put me on Zyrtec but that doesn't work either. My mother read somewhere that you should drink the juice of an union and mix it with sugar and put half a union next to year bed ... didn't work either ... made a hell of a smell in my bedroom though. Any tips, any tips at all to help me out of this misery would be fantastic!!
