One of my big fascinations moving around the world is to spot funny, cute and clever details when it comes to marketing, packaging, customer service stuff etc.

I just came across this photo in my files from a Jet Blue trip I went on in March. I don’t remember exactly what this carton was and what brand, but I am pretty sure it’s a milk carton from their “healthy and fit” – snack pack.

Not that I think a whole lot of people ever notice the bottom of their milk carton but what a clever way to put a smile on my face.

It made me notice it enough to take a picture of it and then make a blog post about it way later.

Way to go you-person-who-came-up-with-it!

Dear readers,

If I can borrow 3 more minutes of your time today, I would like to send you to my sister’s blog to read about a very important cause close to our hearts. Chances are you never heard or cared about this subject before as it is so rare but it is something that is affecting youth across the world and we need some help spreading the word so we can fix this crap(yes, it really is crap)!

So please visit my sister’s blog here:

Lend Us Some Muscle.

Thank you,

Liv

The final hours of 2012 – my version

Tags

celebrations, family, fireworks, games, New Years Eve, Norway, NYE

We were lucky enough to be invited for turkey dinner by my brother  + wife + kids this year(Or am I supposed to say “last year” now?). Even though some family members were missing(as they celebrated with another in-law-family) we had a great change of years.

This year I only have one new year’s resolution(considering every Monday of my life I start with the resolution: “I’m going to eat better and work out more”). My new goal is to try and appreciate the regular day more. I feel like I am doing a lot of running around from thing to thing, from obligation to obligation, while I really should just be enjoying what is going on instead of looking forward to “be done” with the next task. Another task will always be waiting right after, which makes me never sit down and appreciate. 2013 is going to be great!

This is “so last year”, but I still like to post my stuff in a “here are the highlights”‘style. Here are the final ours of my life last year.

The location

The entertainment. Pool, drawing, playing soccer with the world’s best goalie and “playing tunnel”(yes, I went through the tunnel as well)

 

The mandatory “lets take photos of ourselves when we are made up”-photo with my sister

After some eating and playing, it was time to fire up some fireworks! My dad is following strict protocols to make it a safe night for everyone

Three generations of “guys-that-are-up-to-no-good” were in charge of the fireworks. Females and the youngest guy were anxiously awaiting.

And someone thought lighting up a cardboard box was very entertaining.

From experience I know photos of fireworks suck. At least with an iphone. It just doesn’t do it any justice. So this year I am posting a video of it instead:

 

 

Enjoy your 2013, people!
