SUMMER DAYS
I have never been more busy! Summer in Denmark this year beautiful and sunny. Couldn’t have wished for better conditions to open our ice cream shop.
We have a good staff helping out. but still Michael and I have to run fast… and so we do :) the kids just tag along, Kornelius is crawling around like a tiny tornado and Vilja has great fun making new friends among our local costumers. She was once very shy. but that seems to be in the past.

INSIDE OUT
We’ve mowed the inside out. I need to be close to the shops all the time and able to hear the staff or Michael call me when something is up. So the kids and I have ‘mowed’ into and old carport behind the circus. We have had no time at all to sit still the last couple of days though. People want ice cream!

GLITTER CROWN
Viljas princess fascination is still going strong. She refuses to wear pants. Only skirts and dresses will do!

BEHIND THE SCENES
We eat most of our meals on a picnic blanket behind the circus. No time for homemade baking goods or time-consuming-cooking-experiments at the moment. I practice turbo cooking!

THANK YOU
Kornelius keeps me up at night. doesn’t need much sleep that boy. It makes my head all woozy and sentimental. Thank you so much for all your kind words!

FIRST FLOOR
The first floor of the beach house still looks like this. At the moment we sleep in a room that will someday become part of a kitchen.
How are you out there. Away on vacation? …so quiet….

CRAZY BUNCH
Linus (my brothers boy), Kornelius and my sisters two girls April and Penny. Vilja is camping with Anders at the moment. But hopefully this crazy bunch will be back visiting soon and she’ll join in on the fun.

GOING FAST
Kornelius is afraid of NOTHING. And he is faster than the speed of sound… I wonder how things will be when he starts walking….

REUSE
I finished up the sign for the shops yesterday. It’s a reuse of the good old ‘Brinja-sign’ from my shop in Copenhagen. The iron bars holding the awning in front of the circus van is a reuse as well. They used to function as clothes racks in the shop. I love to reuse and give old things new life. and I love that many of the materials we’ve used building the whole circus already has a history.

FAMILY
My favorite brother in the whole wide world is here. He (and family) has rented a vacation house near by the beach house for a while. I don’t know who is more ecstatic about it Vilja or I. She can’t wait for cousin Linus to come back and play tomorrow.
