- more sweet than sour……

out cold…

We’re sniffing here. Sniffing as in having colds. MT isn’t feeling too good, but the fever is low or non excistent so he’ll get over it soon enough I guess.
With the weather we’ve been having lately with warm one day and cold one day, it’s no big surprise to find us in this condition. I’m […]

Quote of the Day

The whole being of any Christian is Faith and Love…
Faith brings the man to God, love brings him to men.
– Martin Luther

Just a little thought borrowed….

in memory..

I’m so sorry for all the thousands of people killed in the earthquake of Java, Indonesia. Again is this small island country affected by natures devestating forces. I know this time it didn’t affect so many western people, so I guess we tend to care less than after the Tsunami in the same area, but […]

Thanks!

Thanks to everyone for the comments on Thursday Thirteen. That really warmed my heart!! I’ve had much fun jumping around on TT’s for two days now - visiting almost everybody. It was time consuming, so I guess I’m not able to do this every week - but it was Fun! And I never knew there […]

Things I would love to grow and do in my garden

Flowers! I hardly have any (those I have are beatiful, though!). I need more flowers!
Make a “sand box” for MT to play with his cars and stuff.
Build a low wall or fence to make better flower bed arrangements…..
Paint the wall/fence in […]

Rocking on a swing..


So, what was I thinking??!

Okei, so this was not the smartest move. I should have know better than giving MT chocolate on his bread this morning. Sigh! At least I should have saved it and giving him it in the end as a surprise. Not placing it on the same plate as slices of bread with […]

Monday Madness

Fill in the blanks…
1. If I could change ONE thing from this past weekend, it would be the weather, I really want some sun for more than one or two hours.
2. One of my favoriet recipes includes chili and lime.
3. If things don’t go as originally planned, I tend to get frustrated and then deal […]

The Road; PhotoFriday

My take on PhotoFriday for May 19th.
The photo’s from Hemsedal mountain and was taken April 27th of this year. We were on our way back home to Sogn. A little bit to light, but the most roady one I got (or found today…)
Happy weekend!!

Thursday Thirteen #7

This Thursday I give you Thirteen Things that is happening in (or around) my life just now….

Yesterday was 17. mai, or May 17th for most of you guys.. The Norwegian constitution was signed May 17 1814 in the town of Eidsvoll and is the historical background for the celebration of […]

17. mai - National Day of Norway!

May 17th is our national day. We swing our flag and shout “hipp hipp hurra!”, enjoy being outside and together.

We dress up, many in national costume - bunad. We eat a lot of ice cream and hot dogs. We walk in procession after brass band music and do attend church.

There […]

Queen Mary 2

I promised a photo, if I got one, and here are several. Neither of them are super good, but you get the idea - right… Queen Mary 2 is the world second largest ship. So even though she gets a bit small next to the high mountain, and because the fjord is wide here, do […]

well, I missed her…

At 3 am I could not stay up any longer, so I missed the boat
But here you can see her by the pier in Flåm - just now (remember this is live camera). Hope to catch her on her way out!!
— — —
On another note; it’s been cold around for the last days. […]

waiting for the boat…

I’m sitting here, waiting.
Don’t laugh; but I’m waiting for a cruiseboat(!) I can’t go to bed until I’ve seen it, it’s going to cruise by any minute now…or in two hours (the problem is I have no idea when). Off course it’s bound to go back out the fjord tomorrow, but I might miss it, […]

Thursday Thirteen #6

The spring came suddenly and fast this last two weeks, in a flash (almost) the garden went from a “ah, nice to see the green grass” to “so where is the lawn mower already”!! So this has to be:Thirteen Things about the growth in my garden
And I tell the tale in photos
