Happy Easter!!


Happy easter everyone. Today im going to a dinnerparty with the other Icelanders here. On the menu Icelandic lamb.... i know i dont have to say anything more.

On sunday there will be chocolate feast, after work of course, its not fair towards the others if i eat my lovelyful Icelandic chocolate easteregg, while the eat the Swedish version, mixed candy in a paperegg. Dont get me wrong i like their easteregg to, but i love the chocolateshell more.


Yesterday was (according to the calander anyhow) the first day of summer in Iceland, lets just say that i enjoyed the sun for you. Summer and winter meet and froze together and well if you believe the old folktale then thats a good sign, the summer will be good.

Spring? Been in Iceland for a week and it started snowing and there was snow the whole week, i thought that spring was just around the corner. It made me uncontrollably happy when i came home last night to see that there was not a snowflake in sight here and the air is warmer. Helga was christening her baby girl and her name is Anna Kristín, named after me and Runa. I thought Helga would be creative and give Anna Kristín a name that has not been in the family before but apperantly we mean so much to her. I have to admit it was a very pleasant surprice, and it was difficult to keep the tears away, think i managed to hide it for almost everybody. My cousin Inga Rún was compeeting in gymnastics yesterday and her group came in 2nd place so she is on her way to the Nordic Championship later this year, I am so PROUD of her. I hope i can get a change to go there and watch her. I tought Jonas, my sisters youngest a swedish word this week:) when i say puss he comes and gives me a kiss, its so sweet.

Whats up? I have a few ideas up my sleeve that i am working on, i dont want to tell you to much, afraid of jinxing it. But when i know some more, i will let you in on it ;) I can tell you that i sent a request to Marabou on facebook, asking to be their chocolate amassador. If i get it i will travel with them to Equador in august to the amazonas to learn about the origin of their wonderful dark chocolate. I have to blog about the experience, but that i can do. I LOVE chocolate, so be nice to our earth, its our only source of chocolate!! This week i have been teaching at work, teaching our or-nurses and orderlies to perform CPR on kids and babies, next week i will continue. And on friday i will get a vacation for one week. Will be nice, i am going to spend it with my family.
