Pyssel – AW
Beautiful lake
Thursday and a long day for me. I had some problem sleeping last night so I’ve been quite tired today. Need new energy.
Took this photo during my walk around the lake earlier this week. It was so peaceful and the weather was lovely. Today it’s been grey and cloudy and not as inviting.
I haven’t figured out what to make for dinner yet – we’ll see what I come up with. Not a whole lot of choices in the fridge though. Hmm.
Nose above surface
Midweek. It isn’t as cold outside as it was the other week. Some snow has even melted away and Mr Penguin is able to breathe again with his little nose just above snow-level. Mr Snowman is no-where to be found – lol. Still a lot of snow where he is placed.
They said on the news that it will be grey and cloudy the next couple of days and no sunshine. When I took my long walk Monday it was almost spring in the air. That feeling is no longer present. Maybe it will come back this weekend – fingers crossed.
Fettisdagen
National theme-day – Fettisdagen – when we enjoy these goodies called “Semla”. A wheat bun flavored with cardamon, filled with almond icing and topped with whipped cream and some icing sugar. Yum.
This one I enjoyed a few days ago – tonight we are making our own so everyone can fill them and decorate them however they like.
Long day today. The painters where here today and started fixing our bathroom. They will return tomorrow to finish.
Color of the week
A lovely sunny start of the week and new lovely tulips to enjoy. A pale pink kind with some strokes of yellow.
Short day at work so I decided to take a long walk by myself around the lake. My oldest was busy with class – otherwise he could have joined me.
It was really nice outside and around -2C. A lot of people was walking, skating and skiing on the frozen lake – but I don’t dare to walk on the ice. Especially not by myself. Now I’m going to have a coffee before it’s time to start dinner.
Valentine’s Day
All hearts day – as Valentine’s Day is called here in Sweden. And sugar coated jelly-hearts are the perfect gift for the whole family to enjoy. And I bought some new tulips yesterday to enjoy too!
Me and my husband took a 40 min walk before lunch. Not as great weather as it was yesterday but still nice and not so cold. In fact, just above 32F / 0C.
I have enjoyed the biathlon this afternoon and the second “semla”. Bought a two-pack yesterday and it said on the sign “It’s ok to eat two”. Lol. My family don’t care for them anyway. They either don’t like the whipped cream or the almond icing. So, we bought a package of selma-buns to fill yourself (or not) for them instead.
Happy Valentine’s day everyone!
Mello 2
A beautiful winters day – clear blue sky and -3C. My husband went skiing on the frozen lake this afternoon. We went shopping this morning and I have done laundry. Now I’m going to watch the biathlon on TV before it is time to start dinner.
Time for the second part of the Melodifestivalen. Tonight Oscar Zia and Anis Don Demina are hosts together with Christer Björkman.

Friday
Friday and we managed to go on our walk! Love spending quality time with my oldest and just stroll in the forrest and chat for a while. We always have such interesting discussions even though it is a bit harder to walk beside each other at this time of the year with all the snow. Long parts we have to walk in a row. 90 min later we were back home again.
I took a shower and then started dinner and now we have enjoyed entrecote of veal with oven baked potatoes and veggies. Now a glas of white to start the weekend and then I’m going to watch “På Spåret”. Have a great weekend everyone!
Fruit snack
It was -15C this morning again but as the day went by it got up to about -6. Long day at work and quite a lot to do.
This afternoon I decided to treat the family some fruit salad – one three kinds of fruit though, but it turned out quite nice anyway. Missed the bananas.
Happy birthday, dear mother-in-law! I hope you will have a nice day even though we decided to postpone seeing each other for a bit. A surprise is on the way..
I hope we will get the vaccine soon – then maybe life can slowly return to some sort of normal again. My aunt and uncle have received both dose 1 and 2 – great news! I hope this will keep them safe!
Midweek
No long walk this afternoon. The weather was fine but I just didn’t have the energy. I had to take my youngest to the hospital for a blood test (which I knew in advance – it was planned, no emergency) and when I got back I just sat down and didn’t want to get back up again.
Instead I watched an episode of Grey’s Anatomy which has just started a new season – corona-inspired and very up to date. Almost too realistic.
