jump

After our delish fika, we when to a lake, new for this summer, and took a quick and well-needed swim. And then U jumped :)

our awesome day

We arrived 11.30 am at J's and my favourite spot - all categories. :) At least my favourite spot. We had brekkie - vanilla yoghurt+muesli+fresh peaches/kiwi fruit/strawberry. Yuuum! :) Then we tanned, talked, had the most amazing bigarreaus/cherries, bathed/swimmed... just really had a great time. Then, time for bbq-lunch! Again: Yuuum! :) We had steak+sallad+feta cheese&water melon+carrot bread+baguette. So good! Sun aaaall day long! This is what enjoying summer to the fullest is all about! Flippin uh-mazing! :)

Then we left at like 8-8.30 pm. Could've stayed even longer as the sun was not about to set for at least another two or so hours. But hey, it's the Fifa WC...! All in all, one of the best days this summer - so far :) Thanks guys!

Lake trip tomorrow!

This is where we're going! :)

mother-daugher time

This past Friday I had a (very well-needed) day off work. As J had work to do all day, I called mum to check if she was home, then hopped on the first best bus and went "home" to Stavsjö. Once there, we had a nice long brunch and then went out for a long walk. We went to a lake called Virlången, and on the trail along the shore, we found yellow chanterelles. The first ones of the season, and a lot of it, too. Love it! :) Yum! Naturally, a fika followed the walk. Hot tea, blueberry smoothie and also I brought rhubarb semifreddo. Mum loved it (dad too, when he got home from work in the evening). The pictures:

Precious mum! :) The chanterelles and the fika.

Gorgeous scenery, hey? :)

Lovely day yesterday

Yesterday after work, J and I took a drive out and enjoyed the beautiful weather. We also took the first swim of the year. It was cold but not too bad :) This is summer. Early summer. One of the most wonderful times of the year. Ha!

There will be SO much blueberries to pick this year (top pictures)! And flowers are from mum&dad's garden, cowslip + white and purple fritillaries.

Lake trip #01

Joel and I took a lovely, well-needed trip to a lake nearby. The weather was so fine, we just couldn't stay inside or in the city even. We only had time to stay for about an hour but it was oh so worth it! Here's some pictures!

Pictures: Mine

There will probably be lots of trips around to lakes and some camping 'n stuff and so now there's a new category: trips'n camping.
