Bye, bye Marianne

Marianne checks the email a last time.
Tomorrow she goes back home to Sweden.

Chewing

Angel has discovered chewing bones. She is killing it methodically.
We tried to tie her outside the café while we were working, but this dog is just to clever. She chewed of the leash three times and then we gave up.

Status of the café

I wrap around the lamp cable with vintage sari fabric.Now it's starting to look cozy. I really like the lamps in contrast to the colorful fabrics.
