Bacalao

Tonight we were invited to my parents house for dinner

some lovely red wine

(notice my empty plate in its reflection, cool huh?)

some crispy garlic bread

And my mum's special

Bacalao

And that's the way the crumble crumbles

Goodbye yoghurt

hello Rhubarb crumble

I'm not worthy!

Rhubarb

I've got these..

Wouldn't you love a rhubarb crumble with cream
And if only these two pictures

was followed with a photo of the most

delicious and generous serving

of sweet rhubarb crumble..

(sigh..)

sadly

the rhubarb is tucked away

in the freezer

and I'm here with a lousy

blueberry yoghurt

(no offence to the yoghurt)

Piece of Heaven

No further comment is needed.

Shape of my heart

This song is one of my favourites:

Whittling and the first swim of the year

Yesterday my children and I

was sat outside whittling

little boats of bark

Today we had the big launch

Such a lovely day at the little lake near our cabin
My daughter and I wanted to have a go in the canoe

but as you can see of the photo

there was rough waves

and we capsized the canoe spectacularly

A shoe gets very wet I promise you

after a walk on the bottom of a lake!

Good thing I didn't bring my camera to take some photos

of the lovely Waterlillies...

17th of May

In Norway, tomorrow is a special day.

This is what we do

the children from all the schools

march in parades

waving their little Norwegian flags

singing and shouting Hurrah!

They get to eat as much icecream they want

and hot dogs, and cake.

Tonight lots of parents (mostly mothers)

are ironing shirts and dresses.

This year my family decided,

we had enough celebrating for a long time

last week.

So we did a runner

up to our cabin

Outside it's raining

but in our hearts the sun is shining

Our sanctuary

Our asylum
