mys i pushkar

being the mellow town that it is, we are really enjoying chillin out in pushkar.  the rooftop restaurants give great views of the village and lake, as well as tasty eats.  i think the girls are really enjoying the mellower pace of life here.

 every chance she gets zoe gets out here book and pens and creates all kinds of beautiful artwork.

 there was some kind of political figure in town today,  and there was all kinds of flower throwing and drums, a bit of a parade really.  zoe collected some of the flowers and made a love coca flower bottle...

 then i think we found our favorite restaurant.  super cozy, with amazing tibetan food, and super friendly staff. 

 but the girl´s favorite part was the restaurant´s super yummy chocolate balls.  they were a real hit!  they even showed us how to make them, so we will have to give it a go when we get back to sweden.

what happens when eijla gets sick?

eijla has almost never been sick in her year of life. but the other day when we heading out to dinner, she threw up all over me and the backpack we carry her in. so went home cleaned up. she seemed fine, and headed out again. repeat. went home, cleaned her up. she seemed fine. but i stayed home with her just in case. which ended up being a good thing, cuz, lets just say i spent a lot of time mopping floors...

anyway, so while poor little eijla was sick at home, what do pappa, zoe, farmor, and farfar do? EAT LOBSTER AND CRAB!

leftovers

yes, that is not an illusion, that is eimi´s child chowing down on a HUGE turkey drumstick. thomas was really looking forward to some thanksgiving leftover turkey. sadly he did not get much of the drumstick as amazing this little turkey of mine chewed it down.
