shut up!!!!!

(!!!) HOW much do i love my blog readers?!?! THIS MUCH (maybe more). i received Hembakat är Bäst in the mail a couple days ago from my friend sarah who saw THIS post, and just so happened to be making a trip to sweden a few days after seeing it (amazing!). she spotted an ikea on a train ride to malmö, where she would be spending the day, and went on a mission that evening to hunt the book down. Hembakat är Bäst is BEAUTIFUL. and by beautiful...i mean DELICIOUS. it's chock-full of seriously insane and gorgeous eye candy--30 classic swedish recipes, everything from small biscuits to large cakes! i can't get over it! now i just need a translator because all of the recipes are in swedish. i will get one though :)! i'm hoping that ikea is kind enough to release copies in the U.S. for everyone--they need to share the wealth!!!

ahh!!! it's crazy how many doors have opened and how many cool people i've met through blogging. i am so thankful!!! what an enriching experience!! please know that i appreciate YOU!

oh, and who is sarah you ask??? guess you'll just have to wait until next week's tuesday feature!!! (she is a gem!--THANK YOU SARAH!)
