the day of the first snow in Helsinki was the day when I rediscovered my innate tree hugger... in the national park of Nuuksio.

This was something amazing. The thin rittle of ice made a superb sound, like a bird singing, when you'd throw sticks on it horizontally...
They'd slide across the lake and
SING.

We share a love for music, my 7-year-old and I.
The only applicance we have, however, for listening to music, is my laptop. The - kröhm - hi-fi has died of old age long, long ago.
So just the other day, I prepared a bath for my sons who were listening to music. As I tried to usher them in my 7-year-old professed earnestly:
'"
I can't take a bath! I can't live without music for so long!".
♥♥♥.
I carried the laptop next to the bath tub so there needn't be any interruptions and sweetheart could go on living.
That's what I call everyday poesie ♥.

a glass of wine and some good conversation... perfect way to mellow into the weekend.

Ain't nothing better... Than a little sharing and soul searching with a dear friend over a cup of coffee.
That's what we did with on a particularly windy and rainy day last week, at Strindbergs'.

And even if it wasn't, really, at least the world
felt like a little bit better a place when we were through with it.

Handmade, homebaked, heartfelt.
