Ideas for your Christmas Cards

I'm not the most reliable sender of christmas Cards. But this year is different and I'm an inspired sendern.
Why?
Yesterday I realized that you actually can make postcards from regular cleaning cloths.
Like this:
  • Pencils for drawing on fabric
  • A couple of cloths
  • A few ideas on what to draw/write
  • A steady hand and a set mind
Decorate the front and then write the address and message on the back of the cloth.
Staple the stamp and they're good to go.

With this Christmas Card your friends and loved
ones will think of you everytime they wash up!


I also put up my christmas tree, which (as you
can see) matches
my Pink Panther just perfectly

Must is a must!


We have a very tasty Swedish drink called "Must" and it really is a must for christmas and easter.

The strange thing about this drink however is that it's only sold in stores during this time, and under the names "JulMust" (Christmas Must) and "PåskMust" (Easter Must).

Another thin is that Must completly deminish Coca Cola's sales. To such and extent that Coca Cola decided to buy the biggest Must-brand, threating to withdraw the Must. All hell broke loose and Coca Cola had to surrender.

Conclusion: Don't ever mess with a Swede regarding our Must!

Words From MySpace - Christmas

Even this year we went to visit my uncle and we stood by his grave.

Actually it was the first time at his stone, it said "I've dug my last hole" and we giggled a bit.
It must have been his own words. I remember him saying stuff like that.

The stone also said: * Loved & Missed *.
Especially today. There was much christmas-spirit in him.
Other stuff too...
He was a heavy guy.

******************

Me, Mum and Dad spent a quiet day with food and movies.
I guess next year will be different, but for this year the whole family shattered like leafs in the fall.
Not in a bad way... It's just that we all remind eachother too much of him, and him not being around anymore.
I hope we'll all gather next year again.
Like them other leafs, sticking together in the gutter.

I apologize for all the bad leaf-metaphores, it might be the late night wiskey I had with my father.
However, I do sincerely wish possible readers of this a merry christmas. Love those you love

Cheers!

Benrik diaries - Out of sheer happiness and joy

This morning Oprah woke me up giving me guilty conscience before I had even started doing anything about anything.
Damn that woman!
Somehow I left the TV on and I will definetly be more careful about doing so in the future. Definetly be careful.


Yesterday I finally went to deliver christmas-gifts to my Godchildren (ho-ho-ho). I had bought 3 Donald Duck books for Robin and pink nail polish to go with the pink hairspray for Sara.

When you give people stuff you always want people to say something like: "Amazing, simply amazing, this is the best gift I've ever had... I ever will get... and I love you so much". And then you want them to jump around a bit, out of sheer happiness and joy.
Somehow they never say or do that.
They mumble "Thanks!"

I may be asking too much. : )


Am deeply disappointed in my own ability to tell lies. (not to mention my ability to be completly truthful)
But this time I had actually practised it all in my head:
"Well Santa came for some coffee the other day... you know me and him, we're like this..." *place for finger motion* "...he also dropped of a few things that he said he'd forgot to give you and asked if I could bring them instead."
I couldn't even get that lie over my lips, and people tell this one at random, at all times... well around christmas anyway.


Recommendation of the day is:
Selfish - Lonesome road
