we are still in Sundsvall. it is raining today and there seems to be no end to it. it's nice in a way, it reminds
me of Gothenburg (I am really homesick)

I have just made a Crème Brûlée. I have no picture of it, but christopher let me shoot his bottles. he has a
thing for Asian beverages :)

lisen: det är lena anderson! mums <3
mieke willems: I really like the bike-shape, but sadly i don't use mine as often as i "should". I'm certain your
bike is great :)
Rynke: no, it's in Sundsvall. Quite far from gbg :)

outtakes from last weekend

Hello!
Still no time for blogging or photography when I'm working. It's dull, but I hope this will create some sort of
thirst for it when I'm back in Gothenburg again. Two and a half weeks to go :)

we ate the most delicious meal today. I'm not kidding. It's the best I've had for a long time. We finished our
bowls quickly! If you (like me) love shrimps, you should try this. And some bread. And wine. And different
cakes for dessert... I could go on like this forever.

Happy tuesday!

...

kermit

we ate pizza at kermit's. it wasn't overwhelming or fantastic, but they had nice walls :)

saturday

I don't miss the heat at all. It's hard to think at work when it's boiling inside.

blue sunday

hi!

I love weekends when I'm working full time. it's such a reward.
Today I went to the local museum and saw an exhibition about Sundsvall (the whole city burned 1888!) I also
had a very nice cappucino and now i'm roasting cherry tomatoes in the oven. poor me :)

Hello!

I'm in a town called Sundsvall. It's located in the northern parts of Sweden and I'm working working working
from 8-16 and will do so a couple of weeks (that's why I have not updated)

I've collected some nice roofs from Sundsvall. I think it's the town's speciality :)

veja cecilia: jag går och smådrömmer om semester :D
mieke willems: that blue is so bright. like small heavens
zan: jag hittade den i bokhyllan häruppe (konstigt!) så jag ska läsa den. tack för tips :)
joanne: oh... I have to look for that author. haven't heard the name before. thank you!
Maria: Gul vattenmelon smakar samma som röd, men jag inbillar mig att röd är sötare. du vet som saften när man
var liten. gul var inte lika poppis
mette: it's both nice and scary to be away. it's actually great work for just five weeks, but at the same time it's
awfully far away from home. :/
...

midsummer

we plan to stay at home today.
i have to pack my bags for sundsvall (like last year). I'm going away to work. for five whole weeks. have to take
some good books along...

ett imaginärt i alla fall

francesca: it does not taste that much, but we all have the childhood memories :)

lisen: vilket fint namn... kotte! kanel skulle också vara ett fint kattnamn
rynke: i'm still enjoying the bread i made :) thank you
asphaltandair: you should bake some bread! it may take away the pollen sadness
...

pollen

hi,
i've been a little off lately. -it's pollen season again!
why oh why? I've lived in the country my whole life. I don't deserve this!

well well. I'm gonna bake bread now. and then a fika outside maybe (i'll pretend the pollen don't exist)

vacation

we have no water tomorrow. it's scary to realize how I take things for granted. I'm already planning what pots
and pans I have to fill with water tonight. Some people have to do that every day.

sandra: oj, hoppar den loss när du fotar? (pentaxen?) sjukt irriterande.
lina, mette, joanne, mariya & saga: I hope it will work now!
zan: eller hur. det låter som om jag är helt galen och viftar runt med kameran, men ja... så kanske det är :)
emma: haha, det är som med min morfar. han brukade misshandla videon när den knasade.
sakletarn: nä, jag vet. men nya grejer tenderar att gå sönder. man gör inte grejer som förr. de höll då. nu måste
man köpa nya för att tillverkarna inte bygger sakerna tillräckligt bra avsiktligt. klirr klirr
rynke: it's a pelargonium (very shy one) and the books are drawn and written by jesper waldesten
...

return

my camera is back! I got mad at it and shook it - and the black spot disappeared!
anger can make wonderful things sometimes...

ace!

lisen: du är söt!
sandra: skönt med friskheten! ut och lek
Rynke: she's smart too :) best mum (in my world)
mette: she looks the same now actually. it's really weird.
mieke willems: well, im so greedy that I still hope for the money to fall down (so i can upgrade my camera).
