Hi hi!
We are home in Gothenburg again and it's starting to feel really good after, hm, five or so hours. I always feel sad when I leave Österlen but the long drive home is a good way to make me long for our apartment.
And now we know how it feels to be married in Gothenburg too!
It's really great to be back home again actually and the autumn air is definitely breezing in right as we speak, and that is a GOOD thing. Gosh, I love autumn. I feel so energized!
Well, this was a lot of babbling for what was supposed to be a non babbling post.
Here's a Two Two Two for you:
Two dramatic skies:
One that comes with angel choir sound and one that looks rather sinister over "our" tree.
Two date nights with David:
One from a few days before we got married and one from our little honeymoon a few days after we got married.
Two of me:
One under our tree wearing a vintage skirt, my wedding pocket watch and a jacket i bought really cheap at T.K Max in Glasgow and one balancing on wobbly stones wearing my latest thrift find, the over sized cardigan.
And here's another little text in swedish. About autumn arriving.
Har morgonkaffet i handen när jag ser höstens första solstrålar genom fönsterrutan och jag drabbas av en kombination av lycka och innerlig längtan.
För sådan är lyckan; en enorm längtan som tar upp all plats i bröstet.
Längtansmålet, det väntansvärda, är fyllt av saker jag vill mest av allt, sådant jag hoppas på, det jag önskar.
Känslor så starkt sammanflätade att de inte riktigt går att skilja åt. Och varför ens försöka?
Duschar och tänker att jag är så lycklig nu. Just nu är jag så obeskrivligt lycklig. Det har med här:et och nu:et att göra, tänker jag.
Min man som tvättar håret bredvid mig och höstsolen som letat sig in bakom duschdraperiet.
Doften av löv som ännu inte nuddat marken tränger genom kvisthålen i taket, lugnet i luften som inte hunnit få upp farten igen efter sommaren.
Höstens första solstrålar drabbade mig idag och inget så trivialt som husväggar kan hålla ljuset borta.
You can read it
google translated here. It works quite nicely today, if somewhat twisted in time and space.
Tjingeling for now!

Hi!
These past weeks have been so weird. We have lots to do before the wedding (12 days left, eeeep!) and we're busy (but not stressed, luckily). It's a fun time: Planning, longing, making lists and then it's the rest of life happening as well.
I STILL have at least three big posts to blog but I just can't seem to get the time to edit all those photos so you'll have to be patient with me. And hopefully I will have the time and wifi to show you some of the wedding fun that will be happening soon.
Until then, here's a Two Two Two for you!
Two skies right outside our window.
One in dark pink and blues and one in a sort of apricot fluff.
Both of them seem to be taken straight out of The Neverending Story.
Two from last weekend when I was in my hometown Jönköping to meet with my friend Johanna who's doing my hair and makeup on the wedding. She was going to practice on my hair but it turned out she had some surprises for me as well.
One picture of me in Johannas boyfriend's russian 1940's motorcycle with sidecar. Erik is hiding behind Johanna's thumb.
That was a scary but fun ride!
And one photo of lake Vättern where we went for a swim and picnic.
Two of me.
One with a determined face and black clothes and one with a cheeky face and lot's of colour.
Hugs and kisses to all of you! /Lotta
Two in Black and white.
One of David snoring in my ear yesterday afternoon when he took a short nap on my shoulder.
And one of me in a great pair of glasses found at a fleamarket last week. Meant for a very blind person but looking HOT on me, right!? (I wish I had bought them!)
Two snacks.
One pancake with banana, turkish yoghurt, pecan nuts, coconut and maple syrup.
And one strawberry.
Two of me with my long hair looking all, eh, long.
One with wine red tights and a straight leg.
And one with olive green tights and a bent leg.
It's all in the details, you know...
I'm off to work now in this pouring rain.
Just a quick reminder of the fantastic giveaway going on right now. Don't miss it! Click

Two colourful things ending up in my stomach.
Water with fresh mint and sweet lemons (such a weird and lovely lemon!) and a plate of tasty things like fruit, vegetables and italian salami.
Two pictures of my jewelry work.
One of beautiful vintage marbles soon to end up in necklace pendants, and one of a Cage pendant in the making.
Two of me.
One with somber hues and a goofy face, and one with bright colours and a calm face.
It's all about contrasts, you know.
I had a lovely lovely weekend and now I'm looking forward to a great week with one of my oldest and bestest friends in the entire world. Tomorrow! Can't wait!!
