Still (pretty) ok



Bought it second hand 10 years ago, the shirt, still like it. The apples are wrinkled I know, but unbelievable fresh anyway for not containing any synthetics, we got them 1 month ago, when we were here.

Thoughts



I could get it cheap he said, this Stokke rocking chair. It was the only one left, and they don´t produce them anymore. But we don´t plan to have any more kids.... or?

Guess i have to have a dinner for five soon. Couldn´t restist these cool napkin rings in a second hand store.
