Sodabread and sunshine

If you need bread, quickly

Why not try sodabread! I served it together with a spinach lasagne which was so tasty 

It was gone before I could tale a photo!

This early morning, while eating my breakfast before going to work

Suddenly the sunlight flowed into my living room. It's March, and spring is coming closer! 

The calendar project

My daughter Pink Princesse goes to school

far up north if Norway.

In a couple of days, the sun will disapper for quite a while

She is wondering how she will cope with it!

Where we live, further south, the days are short in the winter

but the sun never disappear completely so it will be her first time!

To cheer her up

I'm preparing a Christmas calendar

for the days in December until she comes home for her Christmas holiday!

One little present for each day.

A little break after the wrapping

Burger and chips, Little Chefs favourite!

He wants a calendar too!

I'll send them off, one package at a time

You can't beat getting mail!

That'll put a smile on her face

and make her feel special

my sweet girl!

Our Capri

Once again we have spent a lovely week

at Capri, Strømstad in Sweden

This is our Capri,

as it probably is for many others

We have returned to this place for several summers

The sunsets at Capri is devine!

Little Chef is rowing.
Pink Princesse is enjoying the sun set with Dinkie

The rocky shore

While being there, we had plenty of good grub

The photo isn't giving this fishcake enough credit!

Under a sky like this

you feel humble

Sunday in the sun

This is one sweet smelling rose

I wish I could capture the scent in a photo!

This is one cinnamon smelling piece of crisp bread

What if I could capture the scent of it!
Today Dinkie enjoyed herself in the garden
Feeling the sun on her mustache

She thought the snow was a bit cold

So she brought a blanket to sit on

I was there too

my boots on with woollen soles inside

Feet warm and the sun warming my face

Lovely!

Autumn sunshine

The life at the cabin is the life on the bright side

Sometimes symbolic

sometimes literally.

A sunny day is never brighter than on a a crisp autumn day

when the air is clear, the sun still warming and the colors fiery.

Dinkie loves a spot of sun

On a cloudy day, she keeps close to the fire,

and seeks the warmth from her good friend the blue monkey

Blåmann

Is it totally inappropriate

that I've got a Christmas carol stuck to my brain today?

To sum up a good day

I've had a lovely day!

I was shoveling snow in the sunshine

untill my back was wet and my arms tired

When it was time for a break we took out our garden chairs

and had some tea and fruits,

a good talk and sun in our faces

Mittens off and enjoy!

At night, we made home made pizzaand fruit salad for dessert
cause we do love our fruit!
Pink Princess and I
put face masks on to refresh our cheeks
When it dried, we could hardly move our faces
and enjoyed some lemon water
through a straw!

See like I see

Sunrise from my window this morning

A bit later, winter wonder

Our snowy garden

Leftover fish from yesterday

makes good fish soup!

I was generous with the garlic!

Turning

Today its the darkest day of the year up north where we live

since June it has gradually become shorter

Tomorrow the sun will stay with us just a little bit longer!

I like that!

I'm celebrating with one of my favorite Christmas sweets

Marzipan with chocolate

mmm!
