Nybakta kanelbullar och mjölk!

For some reason I felt like baking when I got home today, this happens very rarely, so rarely that I cannot remember the last time I baked, anyhow, I decided to make cinnamon buns. They're well tasty! Especially with a glass of cold milk. Costa is in for a treat when he gets back!

A nightmare in Rottingdean

Steph and Yvette hosted a great party on Saturday night! The whole house, literally the whole house, was decorated, lovely food, good entertainment, dancing, fireworks, drinks and bonfire. We couldn't have asked for much more to be honest. As you can see below Lady of hearts, Zorro, Spiderqueen, the Joker and many more were invited. We were swinging our ABBA hips in Rottingdean 'til about 6am when we headed back home.

Friday I'm in love!

Finished early, met up with Emma for lunch and ABBA-outfit-shopping. We found loads of hilarious dresses but ended up with white mini dresses and blue extremely tacky accessoriese. I think our foursome is gonna look good, we're gonna take Rottingdean with a storm, swinging our hips to Waterloo!

Had Johanna and Geoff over for dinner in the evening, enjoyed pasta a la Elin, introduced them to the hat-game (unfortunately me and Johanna lost...), had fun with Costa's wig and consumed a lot of sparkling.

As you can see we were loving the wig...

Time to start preparing for a Nightmare in Rottingdean.

Contagion

I love going to the cinema, there is something special about getting comfortable in on the red plush chairs, sharing a popcorn and a coca cola with someone, turning the volume of the phone, watch the adverts and thinking - I really want to see that movie! Excitement mixed with high expectations. Unfortunately I usually have to high expectations when I go to cinema and end up getting disappointed, however I love the feeling you have when you are in the cinema. No matter what film I see it feels like a treat, something special, I feel a bit like a kid again. Sometimes I get the giggles too, like a little school girl, you know how it is, when you have to be quite you just can't. Anyhow, we went to see Contagion today, it is about a rapid progress of a airborne virus that kills within days. It's jumps between the worldwide medical community races' to find a cure and control the panic and ordinary people struggle to survive in a society coming apart. I saw the trailer a while back and was hoping for something extraordinary but it was only yet another film about the world falling apart.
