Gatsby
anordinarywoman
Interior. Travel. Food. Fashion. Architecture.
Art Exhibition
Asia Pacific’s biggest art fair in a decade is taking place at MBS Expo & Convention Centre in Singapore. A meeting point for collectors, buyers & art lovers.
A great opportunity to engage with over 160 of the world’s leading galleries. And enjoy exiting & thought provoking art.
Winter land
Beautiful with a white interior & even more beautiful when inside & outside merge into a white winter landscape.
Black & white
Out with Christmas & in with a slightly toned down but graphic replacement in black & white.
Beach time ☀️
First day of the new year, out on the beach, as far east as you can get on Sentosa island. Pleasant warmth, a little breezy for once & pleasant atmosphere. Singapore at its best.
Website
Website: javligtgott.se – where you’ll find lots of tips & ideas & a compilation of many nice menus & recipes to be inspired by. Especially relevant for the New Year’s menu. These dishes were brought up to New Year’s last year.
Creamy artichoke soup with fried oyster wedges. Potato gratin, minced meat, garlic broccoli red wine sauce. Crisp forest berry pie with shortcrust pastry, whipped cream with vanilla ice cream.
Asian modern art
Zhang Hui i- a Chinese Asian modern & contemporary painter that’s been included in exhibitions throughout China & Europe & has established herself as an important figure in the contemporary Chinese art world. The characters in her works are all childlike & lovely, with dark skin & a round face, all glowing from her childhood memories.
Right now in Bangkok on a short trip. Five days of vacation without any agenda. Just take it easy, walk, explore, take in moments & relax. Lunch taken at a French restaurant with excellent food & fantastic staff.
Christmas
Christmas is fast approaching & many people are preparing, planning & organising for the biggest holiday of the year.
Comfortable
Might be good to wear comfortable sneakers for a long day of shopping for groceries, supplies & Christmas presents. It’s indeed necessary.
Lucia ⭐️
Lucia − the bearer of light. Alongside Midsummer, the Lucia celebrations represent one of the foremost cultural traditions in Sweden, with a clear reference to life in the peasant communities of old: darkness, light, cold & warmth. Lucia is an ancient mythical figure with an abiding role as a bearer of light in the dark Swedish winters. And it’s always celebrated on December 13.
Finger food ⭐️
Finger food is probably one of the nicest things to offer because it’s often small, tasty starters that also create an informal feeling when you have a gathering, big or small..
First Advent ⭐️
Happy Advent, now when the first candle is lit.
Kanelbulle
Kanelbulle = cinnamon bun. The most Swedish thing you can be invited to, with a cup of coffee. The cinnamon bun even has its own day which falls on October 4 & is an annual theme day in Sweden.
Collection
Graphic composition & colour combination, a new exciting collection by Evelin Kroon produced by Klippan for Arket.
Plant-based
Roast with red wine sauce, herb butter & tomato salad. The “meat” looks fantastic & it’s 3D engineered plant-based meat that’s s an equally good alternative to real meat. And kinder to animals, nature & our planet.
Tokyo | Japan 🇯🇵
The things you see, experience, feel & hear in Tokyo – all senses are turned on. Amazing & simply unique that a ancient & modern culture overlaps each other so uniformly & works so well in parallel. Fascinating & inspiring.
Colour palette
Simple & soft details in a beautiful colour palette.
Green city 🌱
The city-state of Singapore is the greenest city in Asia, according to the Green City Index, and arguably has few competitors in the rest of the world.
Along the work ahead the bus stops are in focus. Currently there’s around 30 bus stops that have plants growing on their roofs & the goal is 150. Waiting in the heat at a bus stop with green roof could keep you cooler by 2 degrees.
Pasta cake
An exciting idea & nice alternative for a joint dinner – a pasta cake that’s a real feast for the eyes.
Hotel ⭐️
Hotel Bellinzona is a landmark in Melbourne, Australia. A 20th century novelty with exciting architecture, a luxurious regional splendor & a mix of cultures.
Hawker food
Vegetarian hawker stall with various home cooked meals to choose from. It’s always at least one stall offers vegan | vegetarian food at each hawker centre.
In the old days, this type of food was served from a roadside stall or a pushcart. These days, hawkers can be found in coffee shops, hawker centres & food courts. Some hawkers usually specialise in a particular cuisine, sometimes in just one dish.
MRT
The Mass Rapid Transit system, known by the MRT in common, is a rapid transit system in Singapore & the island country’s principal mode of railway transportation. A clean, bright & modern way to transfer between stations & convenient to travel across the state.
