House-warming party: part 1

One of the best things about moving to a new place is that you'll get an excellent excuse to have a party with your friends. And since our place is not that big, I'll have two times the fun. And because it was a house-warming party, I got some presents as well. Here's some pictures of them.

The first on is a bag for champagne bottle (or any other wine bottle). My long-term friend Adelheid made it after we saw one at the first of May -happening. And a bottle of sparkling strawberry wine came along with the bag. :) I also got this picker so I can go and get those blueberries and/or lingonberries with speed. Although I prefer berry picking with hands, this was a nice evidence that some men are actually quite good listeners.
  
 
And another bottle, Fisu. For those outside Finland who may not know this shot, it is made of Fisherman's Friend and vodka. And I got flowers too, roses to be exact. Can't really remember when was the last time I had flowers at home. And even harder it is to remember when was the last time I had flowers that I hadn't bought myself.

The first house-warming party was on Saturday 20th. The plan was to serve some punch with something to bite. Unfortunately I forgot all about my camera because I had so much fun, so there's no pictures about the party food or the party people. After sitting and talking about one and a million topics we headed out to a near-by bar for a gig, where my better half was playing acoustic with his friends. I met some old friends there and got a few new ones. A lot of laughing and dancing and sing-along. We did continue to another bar but I didn't stay long. I went home to bed, he came home later, after picking up a kebab roll with him home.
