It’s been a while since the last time I posted some awards here. I thought this virtual awarding has been over but it’s still circulating in the blogosphere though not as perennial as when I started blogging. I’m extremely grateful that there are bloggers who are truly amiable and generous to pass awards on others with thoughts of friendliness. After all, it’s every blogger’s intention to make friends to [...]
Many thanks to Ruchi of Choosy Info and IWrite2Know for awarding me this Friendship Award while I was on vacation. I couldn’t post and pass this due to time constraint, however, I didn’t expect I’d post this today which is actually the Friendship Day. I wouldn’t have known it’s Friendship Day today hadn’t I come [...]
Hejaaa! Smart bloggers out there, let’s be friends cos I have some awards for you. Hahaa! Who do I think I am to just want smart bloggers as friends when I’m in fact, a dummy-dum-dumb. But I’m glad there’s a smart person on the blogosphere to say I’m smart, a smart blogger that’s to say. And another smart one, [...]
My blog is fabulous! It’s my second award for this year. And I’m on to hit the grand slam before the year ends, hopefully. Thanks to Rozella of Asian Mutt International for this fabulous blog award. She’s fabulously celebrating her almost two years of blogging and she can’t help but to thank her blog buddies with [...]
I have a feeling that I was born on a Friday, and so it was when I queried about an online calendar that traces back which day of the week fell a certain date. Friday was the day when my parents named me Marlene for some reasons, or it was by chance when they thought that the names of their children [...]
I’ve nothing much to say but thank you to Syura, Catherine and Rozella for these wonderful awards. I appreciate your thought from the bottom of my heart. Sorry guys, I won grand slam this time. This Friday the 13th is giving me luck, anyhow.
France is one of the most gorgeous countries in the world, with serene countryside, exquisite architecture and cuisine that makes you want to move there. Not everybody visits France for its history, or even because they are visiting a friend though. Some go there for the casinos. Despite the fact that different types of gambling, [...]

Quite a late post about the start of Advent observation here but it has just started and just one of the four candles has been lighted. This is one event in this country that I don’t want to miss. Each year I spend time preparing my place for Advent. My kitchen window will always look [...]
To be honest, I hadn’t eaten these small, bite-sized dessert until a few months ago when we entered our room at Sheraton Hotel in Stockholm. I didn’t even know it was called French Macarons. I learned the name on Pinterest when I saw some pinned photos which I thought kind of well-known to me. I thought they’re just plain cookies but when I [...]
Decorative Pumpkins for Halloween
Halloween is just around the corner and some children can’t really wait to dress up scary. I always prepare goodies and candies just in case they come to ring the doorbell and rant “trick or treat?” in chorus. I’m not used to decorating my home for halloween but a tint of orange or yellow as a [...]
It’s my first time to join Vår Ruset yesterday at Slottsskogen (park). It’s a yearly race for women here in Sweden and Gothenburg had its turn yesterday. It happens in the month of May when Spring is at its best. All women at work or in different organizations are welcome to join. Unfortunately, we didn’t get a bit of luck [...]
We thought our final gathering at work this time would be uninteresting since we were told that the administration would not be treating us a free Christmas smorgasbord (julbord). We were instead told to have potluck, which sounded more or less pleasing to everyone. But it turned out to be a smorgasbord (smörgåsbord) of international food culture. From pasta to pirogue, spring rolls [...]
Revisiting National Museums of World Culture
This autumn break has been relaxing for me despite the paperworks I’ve needed to be done. But that’s the life of a teacher – working a little on school breaks. We’ve had to work for three days this week and yesterday, the final day, was a competency development at the Swedish National Museums of World Culture. The [...]
