Dear Benita, I am afraid to ask, but I don’t see Mini. Did I miss something?
@@dianasanzana1838 She passed away a little while ago. I shared it on Instagram.
@@BenitaLarsson Dear Benita, I am so sorry for your loss. I know Mini was as a family member for you. I hope the thought that she lived a very full, long happy cat´s life and was loved alot - brings some calmness into your soul in these days... Please accept my condolences.
😢😢
@@BenitaLarsson I'm so sorry, Benita. Sending you virtual hugs.
I’m surprised this is the first video everyone is asking about Mini since she passed. She sure is missed by us all. ❤😢
I didn't know that Minnie had passed away and I'm crying buckets right now.
So very sorry to hear of Minis passing. My heart is heavy for you.
Oh no. 😢 I really was wondering where she is...sleep well little mupu. 😢🖤
Although I'm English and don't have any knowledge of the Swedish language I always say heyda to you in return Benita. Does anyone else do this?😊
Aww, I love that!
Ha ha, yes, I always reply hej hej :D
Me too! Always out loud! It shouldn’t be so funny to me since I am Swedish but it’s just so happy and I love it 😍
Same here in Canada 😊
Yes! 😂
I normally shy away from commenting on appearance, but I was struck by seeing your hair back in your trusty clip. It feels like a small milestone and it made me smile.
My husband, who transitioned to remote work during COVID and will not be going back to the office, has slowly evolved his own "end of workday" rituals that help him unplug, including a Zwift "commute." For a lifelong bike commuter, this has been a game-changer!
So looking forward to your kitchen unveiling!
Yes, the trusty clip is back!🙌🏻
A surprisingly calm video for mid reno. Bonus is so sweet, it’s obvious how much you love him. Hope you get your kitchen back soon.
I’m trying to be chill about the process!😅
Beautiful routine, Benita. In the midst of the chaos, you still find calmness and peace.
Having just graduated from a month without a kitchen, I am in sympathy here. I too enjoyed the glamor of doing dishes in the bathroom sink, and microwaving everything. The walls in my place are masonry, so the grit and dust was phenomenal, and so abrasive. The nightly sweep or vacuum became a drag after a month but there was no way to avoid it. And now, when I see my kitchen every morning, it's a joyful thing. I do not take my kitchen sink for granted any more. In fact, I clean it carefully every night and am delighted to see it every morning.
Wow, a month, that's rough! Congratulations on the new kitchen!
Dear Benita, every other Tuesday, when I put my son to sleep, I turn on your long-awaited video on the big screen and enjoy it. Greetings from Serbia. ❤
I’m so happy you enjoy the videos!
"I don't have patience for movies" - same - maybe 2-3 a year. ❤ that you honor Mini by continuing to put out his food and water - small, beautiful ritual.
It’s all for bonus though😊
Sadly, Mini passed away recently. She was not well. Bonus though, is still going strong, giving lots of love to Benita. ❤️🌹🐈⬛
Benita, I just wanted to say I am so sorry to hear about Mini's passing. I know what that is like and my heart goes out to you.
Such a lovely comforting home you have for you and Bonus. Can't wait to see the kitchen reno! Love that you give Bonus kisses! He seems to enjoy them too!
Thank you! He enjoys them on his term only 😅
Great tips on how to survive and thrive during a Reno! - Thanks so much Benita!
I love how organised you are and also, how much you adore your cat. Looking forward to seeing the reno.
Thank you so much!
I love how loving you are with Bonus. 😽 I look forward to seeing your new kitchen. ❤
He's my man! Can't wait to share the end result!
@@BenitaLarssonAwww..hes a special guy. ❤
Such sweet kitty moments! Bonus is such a good little buddy ☺️
He's the best old gentleman!
Squeal!! A cosy cleaning, organizing, stepping-around-Stockholm video is just the thing to bring all the posi-vibes to my week...!! Thanks Bonita, your content is just totally antithetical to what's happing with all the unrest in our world at the moment, and is like a digital comforting hand on my shoulder... 💚
I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
I can never wait for the next one of your videos. It always feels such a long wait but worth it
Glad you like them!
Same here. it seems every fortnight at the moment. I get excited when you put a new one up.
I am so sorry for your loss of Mini. My Chihuahua lost her partner last year, and I just love her up more in his absence. It has been such a loss for her and us.
Loosing pets is hard!
Had a tough day at work… finding your video tonight was a welcome gift with its usual soothing effect. Thank you and Bonus for this. ❤
Glad you enjoyed it
It’s such a pleasure to watch your videos. Enjoy the new kitchen, and of course, hugs to Bonus.🌻
I'm so happy you enjoy them! Will distribute hugs!
Where is your other cat? Millie?

She unfortunately passed away
Hi 👋 from Scotland, your videos always make me slow down , breathe and smile and want to book a flight to stocholm ! It's on my bucket list ! Your new apartment is so full of character and it's lovely to watch you put your personal stamp on it ⚘️
Stockholm is well worth a visit! I have a little guide with my favorite places here if you’d like to check it out www.benitalarsson.com/blog/stockholm-guide-2023
Thank-you
Thanks Benita, your content always inspires and calms me. I am very grateful for your CZcams page ❤️
Cannot wait to see your kitchen done. Looks like huge works over there !!
Turned out to be a much bigger project than I originally anticipated.
Very excited to see the new kitchen ❤
Sharing everything in the next video so do stay tuned!
I love all of you’re videos. Thanks for always sharing great content. ❤❤
Thank you so much for watching!
Love your style and how simple you keep things😀🌲🌷
Benita, it's so nice to had a sneak peak of the new kitchen... can't wait to see it done!
Excited to share in my next video!
Hallo. Ich bin so gespannt. Ich muss die Küche sehen 😊
Hi 👋 I love how honest you are in your videos. Your evening routine and description of your night on the sofa are so real. Your pace of living inspires me to take a moment and spend time on what really matters. Much love xx
Thank you so much 😊
Benita!!! I’ve missed you! Good to see you’re putting your kitchen just right. Can’t wait to see when it’s finished. ❤❤
Thank you so much!
We just redid our kitchen. A video version is so much less chaotic than the reality! The noise, the mess, the dust, the dishes, the food prep, and the timeline are all individual stressers. Great job of adding one more stresser: video documentation and still carrying it all off with style. I look forward to seeing the final product. I wish I could show you mine in return. It's green 💚😍
Love your vibe it's so chilled.
Hello from Scotland 💜
Thank you so much for watching!
I admire how you are so neat and calm. Looking forward to skiing updated kitchen.
Will share more in next video!
Love your videos Benita, feel like I'm there with you ❤
Aww, thank you so much!
As always a lovely video Benita. Being norwegian I find so many things in your videos relatable.Excited to see your new kitchen next.Always love a kitchen reveal.
Thank you so much! 😊
I'm loving the new apartment and Bonus is one happy cat x
He’s such a sweet old man!
Love to see your new kitchen Benita, good luck with the renovation. It will be all very nice when it is done.
Thank you so much!
Three cheers for the new kitchen .. That is so exciting.. Thank you for showing the quick trip for your supper... I love it when you show us places close by .. Hope Spring is with you all in Stockholm ... Sunshine just around the corner .. Thanks for this weeks fab video Benita and Bonus. PS..Love the new plant with the yellow ball things.
It's been a very cold spring over here but it looks like it might thaw over Easter! Fingers crossed!
@@BenitaLarsson Fingers crossed ..... Happy Easter holidays to you all as well.
I can empathize with estate remediation. It took years for us to finish my dad’s estate. Thoughts of hope and a hug for losses. ❤❤❤
There’s so much paper work😅
Those paws at beginning is so precious!
I'm sorry for your loses of your Mom and your cat,Mini. I'm a little behind. 😢
Me encanta ver a Bunos caminando de forma elegante y tranquila. Espero con alegría ver tu cocina.❤❤❤
Can’t wait to share more in next video!
Wow, what a lot of work is being done to your kitchen renovation. Can’t wait to see the outcome. I am sure it will be just beautiful. I see your rabbit lamp on the window ledge during the renovation. Love that lamp. Love to see Bonus too. Beautiful cat. And that certainly was a nice salad dinner. All the best and hope to see the reveal soon on your new kitchen.
Love watching your videos, always so calming and inspiring! And we got to see more of Bonus🎉
Thank you so much!
Lovely , hope you restored to your calm minimalist flat soon ,can’t wait to see the kitchen . ❤
It’s getting there!
Looking forward to seeing the new kitchen! Your videos are just so soothing. Hugs to you and Bonus from NZ!
Thank you so much! 😊
I can' t wait to see the new kitchen 😊
I’m very excited to show you soon!
Bonus is adorable ❤
He sure is handsome!
My most favorite CZcams channel ever!
Aww, thank you, that's so sweet of you!
I love your elegant hair twist
Thank you so much, very happy to be able to clip it back again!
You take such great care of Bonus, I’m like that with my dog, Chester🌸
He’s such a sweet old gentleman 😊
Hi Benita ! Looks like you and bonus are all cosy and settled in your lovely new home ! Not easy when renovating our homes but you seem to be totally at peace . Looking forward to seeing the finishing touches !! 🙈I also change my footwear when going upstairs ☺️We really do seem to be so alike ! Happy days ! Sending love from the UK 🇬🇧
Aww. The part where you are loving on Bonus made me cry, that was so sweet!
He’s my main man!
Loved the music , Bonus 😻 & your routine. The upheaval of the Reno will definitely be worth it. So looking forward to seeing your new kitchen, I know it will be perfect as you have such a great aesthetic ❤ lol 💖😻
So glad you enjoyed it!
I love seeing what people in Europe are doing and how they live and decorate. Greetings from NSW Australia where the winter temperature in my area, just north of Sydney never gets below about 10°C🇦🇺
I love the way you and Bonus comfort each other ❤ always looking forward to your video realising 😊 love from Munich
😊 Thank you!
I love that you kiss and cuddle your cat even more than I do mine lol . So nice to have a little furry person to talk to. You are so organized and tidy. Very inspiring , Cant wait to see the new kitchen . The green one looks great on camera but I get how finger-printy it must be . Thanks for posting
Furry person describes him so well!
Seeing your video reminded me of washing dishes in the bathroom while my kitchen was being renovated! I had microwave, toaster, kettle, tea and coffee things, a few plates, bowls, cutlery and mugs lined up on the dining table and the fridge freezer beside it. It took some planning before the workmen arrived and I had to be super organised all day long - not something I feel like repeating ever again but the new kitchen has been worth it! I sympathise with you Benita.
Kitchen renovations do spill into everywhere don’t they?!
Super nice as always... extra enjoyed the Bonus parts
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks you always! I enjooy so much! you are a nice model to follow... love your content and living way and mind! love from Granada, South Spain
Thank you so much!
Wow that's awesome...i enjoyed watching and I am looking forward to seeing your new kitchen.... exciting...thanks for sharing..😊
So Wonderful!🙂
Glad you think so!
Progress, progress! Well done, Benita, we are all supporting you and Bonus!
Thank you so much!
Me encantan tus vídeos! Saludos desde Barcelona! ❤
I’m so happy you enjoy them!
you are such a stylish lady benita you manage having builders in your house with style!
Not sure if it’s been in style but its been ok!😅
Benita, I really enjoy your content. I was wondering if you can make a video sharing your history of cleaning like when did it start and why? Your love for cleaning is fascinating.
Love your channel❤️❤️❤️ We bought a litter box that has an opening on the top instead of the side. And also buy silica litter. We hardly have any litter outside the litter box. Plus, the box is oval and cream in color😀 So easy to clean, and no cleanup around the box.
I tried the top opening but because they were both 16 at the time it wasn’t great for them.
Thank you😊
Looking forward to seeing the finished kitchen.
Can't wait to share it!
Your kitchen is going to look so nice when it is completed.
I think so too!
Greetings, our Queen of Mellowness 😂 I'll have this one on loop next time we're doing work 😱 I was unjustifiably sniffy about a microwave, but it makes food prep - and last minute changes of meal - so much easier, I feel?
Love the editing on this video, Benita! Happy Spring to you ❤🌼❤
Having not had a microwave for some months now and thinking I can go without has made me realize I do use it a fair amount and really wanted one again 😅
@@BenitaLarsson Microwaves are extremely handy. I recently added the tiniest toaster oven to my small appliances. It's made it so I can have proper toast (I don't own a toaster) without having a single-use appliance.
Hello from Wales UK! I noticed you have an Aarke Carbonator. I have just ordered one as I do love fizzy water plus I'm trying to reduce my plastic useage. I can't wait for it to arrive. Thank you for sharing your videos. I love your taste in decor and have used it as inspiration in my own home, especially as I have just started working from home too x
I also go to bed around 9pm . I haven't the patience to watch a film through.I live by myself only enjoy a film when watching with others. Love cuddles with my cat Maisie.
Two peas in a pod!
Thanks for letting me know about Mini. So hard to say goodbye to a beloved pet. She had a good life with you.
I also have a hard time watching a whole movie. It has to be really good. Otherwise you tube or a t.v. show for me also! Glad to know other people feel the same!
It has to be REALLY good or I need to watch with someone to get though movies at home.
Wow! I like the idea to place a small mirror inside the cabinet to be able to do all this beauty routine while the cabinet is opened!
Yes! Thank you!
Hi Benita. How are you? I really enjoyed this video, well worth the two weeks wait! I love your loving relationship with Bonus. I used to have cats when I was younger and one of them, called Kicsi (hungarian for little one) was so much like Bonus, his love was so unconditional. After twenty years, I still miss him! I love how you swap slippers to keep your other rooms clean, it’s something I would do. Can’t wait to see the new kitchen. I miss your old apartment but this one is growing on me, especially as you add your personal touches to it. I would also like to see your laundry facilities and maybe a tour of your new neighbourhood! The two weeks is always a long wait but something pleasurable to look forward to, like a holiday! Take care, love from Sydney ❤️🌹🪴🐈⬛🖖🇦🇺
I’m well, thank you! Thanks for the suggestions too!
You are my favorite channel on CZcams! Love from Canada 🇨🇦.
Yay! Thank you so much!
👍❤️
❤️🇦🇺
Is Bonus more cuddly and looking for attention in Mini’s absence? I can’t wait for the kitchen reveal ❤️
I think I'm probably more cuddly and look for his attention😅
Is your cat Mini’s alright?
@@shellitrowbridge1155 Mini passed away sadly
@@mcverstappen 😢 I was about to ask, thank you.
Oh I’m so sad to hear about Mini. 😢
I bought a house last year, we are still in the middle of renovating, it drives me crazy to live in the middle of mess and dust. I try to keep the bedroom tidy, I put back on the wall a decor item I bought when I lived in Stockholm a few years back. It's from Gamla Stan, I loved walking there every weekend after the week of work. Your videos remain me of my time in Sweden, I love it 🥰
❤❤❤ I love your videos!
Yay, that makes me very happy!
Hâte de voir la nouvelle cuisine ! câlins à Bonus ❤
Excited to share it soon!
Condolences- I'm sorry for the loss of your mum, I must have missed this though I try to watch all your videos. I hope you are doing ok.
She was 94 so it was expected and thank you I’m fine.
I missed these videos about routines ❤
I love the glamour 😂🎉 I have been there I know what you mean 😅
The clinking of dishes against the bathroom sink 👌🏻
Got the Aura app! Thank you 🙏🏼 hope it works for me!
I hope so too! Try the “get back to sleep” one I showed. That’s the one that always works so well for me when I wake up at night!
Benita, did you get your smart light switches sorted out? Thanks for sharing the update. Looking forward to seeing your renovations! Have a good day! ☺️
Not yet! But I have spoken to the electrician and I'll get him to come by before it gets dark here in fall and fix it for me.
Another nice video, I always look forward to seeing what you've been up to. Since you shared your evening facial regimen, I'd love to know what type of products (not brands) you use to keep your skin so fresh looking. Can't wait to see the new kitchen!
I’ve got links on my website and Amazon store front. Might make a more detailed video at some point!
@@BenitaLarsson Thanks Benita!
Hello from France! I must tell you, your French accent is impeccable 👌. We are in renovations too but on a bigger scale and I completely agree with all of your tricks, still, you make it look so peaceful and omg so clean 😱 😄. Can't wait to see the result!
Merci! I went to a French school for 12 years 😅
@@BenitaLarsson oh waou! incroyable!😲
Hi Benita, I’ve recently found your channel and I love your videos. Having moved twice in two years and having also dealt with my parents estate and the pandemic during that time I have been inspired by your calm, minimal approach. I hope to follow your tips for my new home (although I fear I’m more of a maximalist)! I’m really looking forward to seeing the newly renovated kitchen. Btw, where do you do your laundry in your beautiful new apartment is there a washing machine/dryer? Happy Easter xx
Thanks for watching! There’s a communal laundry room in the basement!
Thank you for sharing your life under the construction site which I definitely know is a challenge, especially with a cat…. I had the same two years ago🫣but afterwards you will feel happy, I am sure of that. And you are still so organized even during that time👏🏻Also, caring about your Mum‘s affairs is not that easy, especially emotionally I think….and…you’re so sweet with Bonus🥰😻 Inreally smiled when you told us you go to bed at around nine, so do I, I am also a morning person! Pls tell me what song is it that we were listening to in your video, I really like it❤️so, I wish you all the best for the upcoming works and cheers, see you soon!🙋♀️🤗☀️
I always put the link to the music in the description box of the video! This one is Kylie Dailey www.epidemicsound.com/track/ZiOA9DRpTS/
@@BenitaLarsson thank you,😃🙋♀️
Hello Benita! 😃 Renovating your kitchen! How exciting and stressful at the same time - can't wait for the reveal of your new kitchen space. Cute, "he will make little annoyed noises so it's better for both of us if he is feed before I start eating" - so sweet ❤ How is Bonus with strangers in your place? Our little girl, Nellie - she hides under the bed until strangers are gone - I always feel so bad because I wonder how stressed she must feel, but glad that she has a spot that she feels safe. Thank you Benita - enjoy your week! 🌸💮🌸 It is a beautiful sunny day here - and I am looking forward to spring!
Bonus is not happy when the contractors are here. As soon as he hears them he hides under the sofa where I've put several wooly blankets for him to chill out on.
@@BenitaLarsson You are good cat mom. ( :
@@BenitaLarsson ❤️
I love your videos,you inspire me so much . I'm also now addicted to June's Journey 😂
I love that game!😅
Looking forward to the reveal! Glad to see Bonus thriving, but I am sorry about Mini. It's always hard to lose a pet.
As an American, I completely understand the preference for ice in drinks. The colder the better. I even throw ice in my water bottle before heading outside in -10 degree F weather... my husband just rolls his eyes.
It was sad but she wasn’t well so for her sake it had to happen.
Hey you mentioned the bro job! Thanks for making me smile 😂
What a beautiful video, Benita! Amidst the swirl of renovation, you continue to have a serene haven through routines and a positive - inspiring - perspective. Anticipating the reveal of your new kitchen (!), and know that good things are worth waiting for. The best bits in this video, imho, are your shared TLC times with sweet Bonus. ♥Btw, I've been using the Aura app, too: highly recommended!
So good, right!?😴
@@BenitaLarsson it's terrific!
@@BenitaLarssonIts the Best, helps my sleep
Happy Easter from Prague ❤❤❤
Happy Easter!
I had stepped away from all social media for about 2-3 years. I just read below that Mini had pass away. My condolences to you and Bonus. I know that pain from the loss of long-term kitty companionship all too well.
Most cuddled cat in Stockholm, your dear bonus. What would we do without our floofers, eh? I am glad for you that the eyesore of a kitchen is getting out of your house. Sleep well.
He sure is that!
You are my kind of person, especially with the "glamorous" dishwashing facilities!😂
Such a treat to have dishes scraping against the porcelain 🤣
Loved the video, even when your kitchen is under construction, your house has still so much calmness 😍 Did I see it correctly that you have a Enhet mirror cabinet in your bathroom? Do you have a single door one or a double? ❤
I have the single door one!
Living thru a reno is challenging, so is settling a loved ones estate. I worked for the better part of a year on it when my husband passed away 14 yrs ago. Do you have siblings, or is this all on your own? I'm looking forward to seeing your new kitchen :) Thanks for sharing 🥰🌱🌿🌷💐☔💗✝ Happy Easter ! 🥰🌱🌿🌷💐☔💗✝
I’m an only child do it’s all on me😊
