Two weeks off

It´s like we´ve started a whole new adventure now,actually living here, renting and working. Just to pay a bill is an adventure (no internet bank payment options, either you get paypal or make sure you have a creditcard that works or you simply pop into the postoffice and stand in line just like in the middle ages) also neighbours and neighbourhoods is quite funny. Next to a brand new house worth a hundread millions, stands an old shack were the owners don´t even mind to mow the lawn. The guy next door thinks I´m strange (and now refuse to even look at me) who doesen´t say hello and start a half an hour conversation with him everythime we happen to open the door at the same time. We have tiny little lizards running in our garden and a lemontree next to the driveway in front of the house. So very diffrent and just so wonderful in all the same time. 
Have had two weeks off since we got here. Already foundthat cozy sort off daily routine. Been running around town during days, practising my driving and spend a good few hours in the library with a nose in all the books by the cookbook area, also tried to personalise our new home going crazy at K-mark and BigW. H is home by 4.30, when it´s coffe-time and updating eachother on our day. Then we cook together, light some candles. This week we´ve been laughing our way out from the couch (witch is now beautiful and white, non vomit-green) to the first season of "Modern Family". Tomorrow I start my new job. Bit nervous but excited too. 
 
The Lemontree. Quite fantastic to walk out to the lemon-smell in the mornings. 
New friends in the kitchen for some good inspiration, Nigella, Gordon och Jaime. So happy when I found this book where Jamie´s in Sweden. 
Some lavender has also found it´s way to the shelf, Koala likes the smell. 
And some to the toilet window
If you haven´t, see it.
Finally found some time to get thoose maps up! We have a world map in the bedroom too, but on this one we´ve written and drawn al the roads and trips and cities we´ve so far been to. Strange how we now think we´ve seen sooo much of Oz. In fact, we haven´t even seen a third.
Tada! The white coach!
