Erika's World

Hi guys. Oh my god it's really late. Hahaha not that late but it's after 11 pm. Yeah but it's Friday and that means that it's WEEKEND! Tonight I had dinner with Annika and Kaj since my mom away for a few days. It was really nice. Annika had cooked salmon with some baked root crops. Yum! Especially that salmon part. I was like yes fish! My mom and I don't eat fish that often. Hmm, don't know why. I'll have to bug her the next time that we go grocery shopping. I kind of control that list and mom just pays for it. No, it's not that I write down just anything. It's that maybe I have more a sense of what we have. I don't know, I kind of was like that before I went to the US. Hmmm. Now, I have just trying to give up on being a control freak. It's to much work and exhausting. I try to have a more "whatever" type of attitude. Oh mi gosh! I watched the Up All Night: The Live Tour  blu-ray that I got at the 1D World Stockholm store. I was...

Hi, my friends, what's up? I am good. I had sushi for dinner. Yum yum yum! They have finally opened a sushi place where I live so I asked my mom if we could go there for dinner. It's was really good. I took a vegetarian sushi and there was this tofu piece that I have never tried before. It was good. I took a picture. Both plates aren't mine, the California rolls are my mom's. On Tuesday it's Fettisdagen and so tomorrow I am going to make semlor. I am just going to make the bread not the whole thing with the almond paste and whipped cream. Just the bread. I'll put on the finishing touches on Tuesday. I am also making semlor for Annika and Kaj. your writer, Erika .p.s. Follow me on instagram @ eriikaworld  :)

Hi guys! What's up? I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas (I probably wrote that a few days ago but it never hurts to be friendly). Yesterday my family and I had a our little Christmas since we all couldn't spend Christmas eve together. It was fun. LOL. Annika had made two potato gratins (delicious BTW) but only one was eaten. We were like nine adults and eight children but the children had waffles with jam and ice-cream. It was a fun night. We ate good food, had fun opened presents, spend time together and all that is Christmas. Today was also fun. I went to Stockholm with my mom (and Merlin) and had tea and scones at this little cute place. For Christmas I got this gift certificate at this bakery so I went and bought some bread there. One big loaf and two small rolls (yummy little rolls, I think that they were made with sifted rye flour, and probably sirup since they had a sweet taste - plus all of those other important ingredients). They place where we had ...

Bitch please, google please! Gosh! Still having problems with the stupid password. Maybe someone has hacked me? Na, but seriously it's annoying. I try to log in but I can't. Hmmmm. Anyways. Yesterday Linda came over. I mean I spent four months in the United States but it doesn't feel like we have been away from each other for that long. It just doesn't. We really didn't anything special. We exchanged Christmas presents and then we just talked and played wordfeud ('cause we're that social, LOL). That game is hard! We switched to random and english. Linda has more points than me but thats only because she got 99 points for "BYS". That's why she's ahead of me, not because she's better at english (LOL). She hasn't played for a while (boring!). Today, haven't brought that much. I went to Annika and Kaj to leave a bag of M&M peanut-butter that her sister wanted from the United States. They are going to spend Christmas with her...

Hi guys! What's up? Have you had a good day so far? I have. I went Downtown for the usual. Shopping and fika (at Starbucks, nowhere else duh!). LOL. I bought a case for my iPhone 5 at Victoria's Secret and since Caroline wanted a pink lipgloss from VS I got that too, plus some for myself. LOL. I have so many lip-glosses it's crazy. I love 'em. I am trying to remember what more I got. The 20's are kicking in. Yeah, that's right now I remember I got faux eyelashes, a brown eyeliner and a eyeliner sharpener from SEPHORA. I also got another mug at Starbucks. The same one as before because I wanted at least two that look the same. Ooooh, I got a Christmas present to Kaj and one for Annika. Tomorrow I am going to buy some more Christmas presents. Yeah, I know I haven't shown you any picture of the shoes and the dress that I bought at JCPenny but I have already packed them in one of my suitcases and I am sitting here comfortable in my bed. LOL. Yeah, I ...

Hi guys. Watchadoin'? Nah, Imma just sitting here watching TV. Finished my homework about half an hour or so. Wold have gotten more done but, I had to go downtown to Paseo Nuevo and T-mobile (which is pronounced t-moble, incae you didn't know). Yeah, I had planned a study day at home but no fucking T-Moble (that was on purpose) had blocked my phone for some reason. Yeah, I tried to calling their customer support but all I got was this stupid computer voice. Eff them! But yeah, I went to t-moble (on purpose again) and I got my problem solved. I mean seriously how could they just block my phone without telling me? I couldn't call or text anyone and no one could call or text me! WTF?! I talked to my mom this morning as I usally do and after I talked to her I called Annika. I was nice talking to her. We haven't spoken since August. That's a long time. We talked for a good 20 minutes or so. I have unlimited calls to landlines in the world through Skype, so I thought I ...

Urrgh! I am so annoyed! Why? I'll tell you why, that damn post office! That damn, American Post Office! What's wrong with that damn American Post Office? I'll tell you what's wrong with that damn American Post Office. They close at 2 pm on Saturdays so I didn't have time to mail my package. Fuck them all! LOL. Nah, I am just a little annoyed but what can you do? I just have to go back there on Tuesday and mail the package then. Well, well, I was going to ship a package to my mom. She asked me to buy her a few things and then she wanted me to ship it to her. Plus I bought her some surprise things. Talking about surprise things I bought Martina something today. Most people, well a few people, are getting things from. Things like Hey-I've-Been-In-The-USA stuff. Hahaha, LOL "stuff" makes it seem less exciting. People don't worry your "stuff" is very cool (and that just makes it seem very naughty, :p). I am getting Annika something from ...

Yesterday was my moms'  birthday. Yeah, it was cool. I made her breakfast (yeah, I am just that nice) and gave her a present - a pair of shorts and a top from H&M. Later we went out to dinner with Annika and Kaj. They wanted to take out my mom since it was her birthday. It was fun and it was just the four of us. Annika, Kaj, my mom and I. Yeah. Today is the party. Party, dinner, whatever. There will be people and there will be food. Call it what you want. I am in charge of the cakes. I layered the yesterday, so all I have to do today is decorating them. It's going to be fun. I have a few ideas. OMG, you know what, when my mom went shopping for the party she almost bought flan case which kind of broke my heart. I mean hello! Fortunately I talked her out of it. Yeah, but the she end up baking them herself anyway. At least she didn't buy ready flan cases, so I guess that's good. I mean who does that? Lazy people. Okay maybe not but hire a che...

Yesterday was midsummer's eve. I went to Skansen with my mom with Annika, Kaj, Sara and Micke and their son Caesar and Åsa and Alex. It was ok. After that everybody went to Gröna Lund (an amusement park) except my mom and I because I was cold and I really don't like Gröna Lund so much any more. It is not as much fun as when I was a kid. When they came back from Gröna Lund my mom and I went over to Annika and Kaj's place to eat dinner. Which was around 6:20 pm. Well, we didn't exactly eat then. The dinner had to be prepared. So the dinner was done at about I don't know, somewhere between 7 pm and 7:30 pm. It is way to late to eat dinner at that time. I think that dinner shouldn't be served later then 6 pm. When everybody prepared the dinner I tried and succeed to entertain Ceasar. He is so cute! But when he started crying I panicked. I didn't know who to handle the situation. He started crying because he got frustrated about something. your writer, Erika.

My first thing to do this summer is going to be........wait for it................Open a bakery! Well this week I am going to finish a brochure that I started on a few days ago (and hand it out to people I know) and open a blog. On the blog I am am going to write on swedish. The name for my bakery is going to be Erika's mat but the official name is going to be Erika's food. I'll hope someone will order something. I got the idea (well I have thought about it before I read it) from a magazine called Julia. I mentioned it yesterday when I ate lunch with mom, Annika, Sara and her son Caesar (who's just a baby - he is three months old) and Annika thought was a great idea. She said that I absolutely should do it because I am such a great cook. I graduated ninth grade yesterday! That's why I had lunch with mom, Annika, Sara and her son. I also got presents! So thanks for the presents once again! I loved them so much. I am really thankful for it! your writer, Erika.

OMG! Yeah, only sixteen (school)days left in school! An other great news is that it is only three days in school next week. Yeah! No school, no school, no school! The same days as I am graduating from "grundskolan" (9th grade) I am going to have a picnic with friends and family. Nothing is diseased yet. But I hope so. I think it was Sara who mentioned it. Then I mentioned that I should get presents but the someone said that no or something. Annika said then that when you graduate from 9th grade you should get presents. So I will keep my fingers crossed. you writer, Erika.
