I am so liking this alot…..!

I have always tried to do something similar but this is a very cool way of doing it (perfect for somewhere that doesn’t rain all the time, like here or to be more specific celtic regions, that I know and love!!)

{gasp!}

In my mind, I have always visualised this kind of dinner party during one summer! How gorgeous would this be, just to have dinner with friends/families in the middle of field.

Sweden is the one of the country that I can not actually visualised and I am fairly exciting by that, so its always been on the list of my destination to visit!

Cannot wait for my Swedish midsummer, 2 weeks!!!

How cool would this be on a warm summer night?! Talking with friends until the sun comes up (It gotta be done at least, once in a blue moon!) I envy to those who did it or still doing it right now…..

I also often wonder what do they actually talk about……. :-)

“
all you need is love
dear Kyle S.,

this is to alert you that because it is snowing and I really have nothing better to do except read horrible Victorian novels, I shall be spending the day in bed with a giant pot of tea, old movies, books and writing utensils. Not that this particularly affects you personally, but it will make you jealous. Nyah.

Love sincerely,
Victoria M. the third.

dear Victoria M.,

I am severely jealous, this is because i’m working very hard all day and it seems as though you have the life i would desperately like to have. I must remind you though, that if you have to erase too many things that you are writing you may end up with eraser bits in your bed. for this reason i recommend pen. and feel free to mail me things…

Love,
Kyle S. (the first)

dear Kyle S.,

I greatly appreciate the advice on eraser bits in my bed, however, I feel you forgot to include ‘spilling tea on your white blanket’ as that is slightly what I’ve done while pouring on the first go. Perhaps tea parties in bed are not the best idea afterall [but still quite delicious]. I am sorry to hear of your working dilemma and offer my full sympathies. I would mail you something except I already have and therefore do not see the need to send off another one of my precious [and expensive! Stamps are bloody expensive] stamps to you before you send me one back.

Love sincerely,
Victoria L. M. the third.

dear Victoria M.,

This is quite tragic about the white blanket. However, it is only tea and shall come out with a wash. Currently something has happened with the air circulation in my classroom and my ears have just popped. I believe you should also be aware of possible crumbs that might end up in your bed if you choose to have biscuits with your tea. That being said you are resourceful and I’m sure you will do fine.

Love sincerely,
Kyle S. the first

dear Kyle S.,

If only you had warned me earlier about biscuit crumbs considering I have already devoured toast with peanut butter [perhaps not my best idea], luckily I managed to keep most crumbs on the plate. I hope your ears are ok; I would hate for anything to happen to your lovely ears. In other news I am quite in love with old movies and my newest craving are white gloves that come to my wrists that I can wear to tea and with dresses. Do not die from boredom.

Love sincerely,
Victoria M. the third.

We love each other.

I haven't been away....

I haven’t been away and I hope that my posts over the last few days will somehow make up for the lack of posts since June.

The only reason that I could give you was that my laptop have decided to go and die on me. Nevertheless, t’was my fault as I was warned by my dear darlin’ husband (who also happens to be IT manager, by the way) that I was overloading it with tabs & files like you wouldn’t believe it!!! (And yes, I was too warned to back-up my laptop weekly but alas, I did not……. as per usual!)

And to get my fact straight here, I did not expect my other half to do the back-up for me since I was afraid that he may adjust my laptop which may result in me taking it out on him, unfairly.

So with that, I have to say that I am actually enjoying doing this tumblr thing. :-)
