New project



Few weeks ago I got an old table from a Finnish auction website. I've needed a new working table for so long, but didn't feel like going to Ikea once again so it took a while to find the right one. It's so cute with a little drawer & porcelain knob and the wood is just beautiful. I've been removing paint (well, five layers of it) with a paint remover gel, which is pretty handy but the smell is just the worst! It has five layer of paint, mint green, darker green, blue, light yellow & cream white.

We took care of a friends' dog a couple of days. Today M came to pick her up and brought us focaccia and donuts with apple jam! So delicious. We also bought strawberries to put in a freezer. Earlier this week 5kg cost 23 euros but today only 18e, win win! Tony didn't believe me at all when I told him that strawberry is not actually a berry but a false berry.
