Stormy food

Today we have a storm pushing us around. She's called Tuva.

Trees are falling, roofs are flying. Its cold and rainy.

Time for cooking and treating and comforting ourselves

Salmon cakes, made them all by myself, with spices and garlic. Mmm! Fishy delight!

Cinnamon buns. Plenty of cinnamon for the happiness of our souls.

And a cup of hot chocolate.
We're talking real comfort here.

We need it.

Hammock

This is how it is now: a frosty hammock, cold and lonely in the garden.

But I remember this: A warm and sunny afternoon. Lovely.

Clouds of magic

When it's winter

We get the most beautiful art

for free

If we look up to the skies

at the right moment

Outside of my window

Suddenly, while baking buns, I saw this magic outside. Grabbed my camera and nearly fell out of the window trying to capture the colours. Didn't get them all, but still, I couldn't believe how beautiful it was.

Need a hug?

Dark January.

Its so dark!

When I leave for work in the morning

its pitch dark

when I come home

it's turned dark again.

I see the light through my office window

thats not enough for me.

I need a hug.

But I can still do some good

I got these two huggers

after donating a pint of the good stuff

My own B+

So maybe I can send a bit of hope and an imaginary hug

to a person in need of

some extra blood,

after an accident or an operation.

Greatful to be able to help

Why don't you register as a donor?

If you're afraid of needles,

a good old fasion hug can be donated too!

Truce?

About the cat and dog situation.

They were both on my lap today, dog sniffing cat, both quiet, that is definitely progress.

I'll tell you, mad barking for days, thats no tea-party! Our nerves has been kind of on an edge..

We're not letting them loose just yet, but now we have our hopes up. It just might be possible!
