Spring setback

Prag bjöd på härligt vårväder förra veckan. Solsken, frisk luft, leriga vägar och behagliga temperaturer. Ohh vad härligt att våren är här tänkte jag. Jag kisade mot solen och kände en sån där barnslig lycka över att jag minsann kan vara ute och njuta av dessa strålar och inte behöva sitta inne på ett kontor.  Sen kom bakslaget som ett brev på posten.... Snön föll över Prag och klädde gator och torg återigen i ett vitt täcke. Temperaturen sjönk och nu ligger snön envist där den ligger. Jag tänker inte låta mig knäckas... Färgglada tulpaner ger mig styrka och hopp om att våren iallafall ligger i startgroparna..


Prague offered nice spring weather last week. Sunshine, fresh air, muddy roads and warmer temperatures. Wooohooo finally spring  I thought. With the bright sun in my face I felt a great happiness that I don't have to sit inside an office all day. Then the setback came. I should've known. Snowflakes fell and covered Prague in a new white and fluffy blanket. The temperatures dropped and here we are in a white winter wonderland again. But I am not gonna let this break me. Colorful tulips gives me strength and the hope that spring is just around the corner.

Weekly update 40/52 Autumn colors and cinnamon buns

Welcome October the most colorful month of the year. Yes we are going full steam towards the darker and colder part of the year, but I have to admit it is cosy and pretty with all the colorful leaves.  I don't know if it is a new thing to have theme days where a dish or something is being celebrated. I am guessing it is a capitalistic marketing great idea so companies can make more money like Valentine day. One of those days in Sweden is 4 of October when our national bakery Cinnamon bun is being honored. I got inspired! Some time ago I bought nice linnen tea-towels which I was planning to make some print/design on and when I got inspired by cinnamon bun I knew exactly what to make. I started scribbling and drawing buns on a big sheet. When I had one or two which I thought looked ok I transfered my bun drawing to my Cricut and had it cut out on iron-on vinyl. My mum is a master in baking buns and so I made a tea-towel/baking-towel in honor of not only cinnamon buns but of my mother...

Weekly update 38/52 Örebro Autumn market in summer sun

  It was exciting to participate at my first market being back in Örebro, Sweden. It was an Autumn market in the beautiful setting of Karlslund Estate in Örebro. Most exhibitor were selling locally grown fruit, veggies and flowers. Also jams, marmelades, bakeries and cheeses. It was a sunny beautiful day and it attracted a lot of people. It was fun to finally again set up my display and show my products. The market stand/table I rented from the organizer and it was perfect size and cute. My best-sellers were my hats in smaller sizes. Amd to next market I need to make more fleece-lined hats since it gets cooler here in Swedem during the winter.
