Curried Coconut Chickpeas Recipe

Curried Coconut Chickpeas Recipe

Not to sound like a broken record, but I pay approximately 50% in income tax and another 25% VAT on everything I buy. Yes, even groceries! This definitely sucks, so I’ve come up with a game I call “how low can I go?” It’s not even a game really, it’s just a personal challenge to… Continue Reading

Thrifted Sofa

July 14, 2010 By Sage 4 Comments

I think I used up all of my good sofa karma when I found the vintage velvet sofa back in April. It’s totally my dream sofa, but I also wanted something a bit bigger and more cozy. I’ve been diligently stalking the thrift shops since early May to no avail. I contemplated buying something new,… Continue Reading

Blå Sko

June 21, 2010 By Sage 5 Comments

I cannot overemphasize the importance of practical shoes in my life right now. For more years than I’m going to count, my daily footwear has been along the lines of these Kate Spade leopard print pumps. I was a shoe hound long before Carrie Bradshaw took the obsession mainstream and both of my grandmothers were… Continue Reading

Vintage Velvet Sofa

I’ve been dreaming of this vintage sofa forever… It’s made of velvet damask! It’s in pristine condition! It’s at least 50 years old!  And I scored it for 575 kr. (about $100) at a secondhand shop in Denmark! This is seriously the vintage sofa of my dreams! It’s staying in a friend’s studio until I move over to… Continue Reading

$16.50 Sweater Extravaganza

March 20, 2010 By Sage 5 Comments

Right now, most people are thinking “spring”, but I’m thinking about 25% sales tax and the next who knows how many long, dark winters in Northern Europe after I’ve sworn for years that I’d move somewhere warm. Today, sweaters were 50% off at Goodwill, so I stocked up for my new life abroad! New, $16.50… Continue Reading

Spring Thrifting Finds

March 18, 2010 By Sage Leave a Comment

I feel like Ms. Gloom & Doom lately, so let’s lighten things up with one of my favorite topics, thrifted goodness! I bought these things at the end of last summer and had completely forgotten about them, but we’re expecting record high temperatures today and tomorrow, so naturally, I’m excited to change over to my… Continue Reading

Danish Thrift Shopping

January 31, 2010 By Sage Leave a Comment

So far, I’ve discovered 4 thrift shops in the town where I’m planning to live. The main difference I see between the US and Danish shops is that the majority of US inventory is clothes, and here, it’s mostly furniture and housewares. I’m going to have a lot of fun furnishing my flat from the… Continue Reading

Once upon a time, I had the chance to move to the happiest country in the world!

My restless Aries spirit liked that idea, so I did what any girl in my position would do… I grabbed my cat, booked a one-way ticket to Denmark, and became an expat!
