GOOD BYE SUMMER...HELLO AUTUMN


Home Alone Today
I lit my favourite Fairy Toadstool Candle...
and COOKED

Here in Sweden the seasons are short. 
 Already, soo quickly we have said Goodbye to summer...

Hello Autumn :-)

I soo do love Autumn.
  Crisp, breezy walks in the forest with our dog Stanley and the boys cycling infront, behind and everywhere.
 Open fires and the smell of woodsmoke, candle lit evenings.
Hot Chocolate and warm blankets to snuggle under on the sofa...

Yes :-)
 Hello Autumn


I so do love Autumn
And the activity of hunting out Autumns bounty.
 Picking  berries and fruits and mushrooms especially.


Kantarells


Svartvinbar


Soon to be ... Jam


Home-made Bread







And of course EATING  & ENJOYING this real, hearty, nourishing food...



Pan-fried Mushrooms on a slab of toasted bread

Apple Crumble ...for the boys!

What is your favourite season?

LOVE, PEACE enJOY!

    I just stumbled across your site ... I love it! We lived in Alaska for over 15 years and looked to the Swedish style for inspiration to survive the long winters. I love the simple, cozy decor with splashes of ReD!! So happy when all is dark & 40 below... :0)
    I am now in Washington where winter does not come so fast.. time to breath.
    peace & sunshine........

    Autumn is my favorite.
    After the fast pace of summer I love the calmness of autumn.
    I also love the calmness of your blog after a busy day.
    Your home is so warm and beautiful.
    Your friend, Camille
