It actually has its own Facebook group, and is an absolutely magical place. I might be prejudiced because a) I am a librarian, b) I love books and c) at some point soon, I have to take books out of my shelves, in order to add more books.
I could really do with a bigger personal library space. So, here is the library from Disney’s Beauty and the Beast
When my sister M and I first talked about moving in together, there was a lot of planning prior to the actual moving. A lot of the time was spent discussing how we were going to decorate the place.
One of the things we agreed on was that we wanted a comfortable sofa. I watched Death At A Funeral 
I sent the screen cap to M, and commented that this was the kind of thing I liked.
M’s response: I’d really prefer if we could avoid the coffin. Oh, and I’m really not a fan of the pillows, featuring dogs.
When the time came, we test sat every couch at IKEA. And we ended with Ektorp, in stripy blue. (When M moved out, I upgraded to the light brown in the picture, and M ended up with a dark blue sort. The stripes was a compromise.)
Honestly, it doesn’t look *that* different from the Death at a Funeral one, does it?
Summer hasn’t happened much in my part of Norway. As usual, it has been wet and fairly cold. And the umbrellas have been out in full force already.
But for autumn, I like the design of this umbrella from Stormy Weather. It looks like fun, and a bit different than all the umbrellas that I already have – one in each bag, one in the car, and one at the office… Yes, it rains a lot here.
I probably won’t get this exact one, but it helps to have an idea in my head as I look around in my local shops. (And, with the windy weather we have here, $40 is a bit too much to spend on an umbrella… Sadly.
I am not a huge 2 1/2 men fan – if I am in the right sort of mood, I find it slightly amusing. If not, it falls very, very flat.
However, what I do love about the show, is the props. (Oh, and the house on the beach wouldn’t go amiss either.) More specifically, these coffee mugs.
I’ve completely fallen in love with these mugs. (Which, incidentally doesn’t seem to be available in Europe. For anyone in North America, who also likes them: Amazon) They look sturdy, and there is something about the stripes and the color scheme that just works for me. I only really like Charlie’s mug, with the brown top edge. Alan’s blue top-stripe mug isn’t nearly as interesting to me.
The kind of solid mug that works nicely with a warm beverage on a cold autumn day.
