° a harvest post °

So... the summer (and even the Indian summer) is over :( Last week I was wearing balerinas, but now you can walk only in rubber boots or trekking shoes. It's raining and raining and raining. The sky is grey, I haven't seen the sun since the weekend where I was lucky (and smart) to take photos of the rest of the cards, but unfortunately not all of them. Heh! I decicded to take my time and continue working on my Swedish. Wanna seen my progress? :D

According to the title the post should be about harvesting, and it's actually what we were doing on the weekend together with my husband's friend. We found really nice mushrooms in the forest nearby. Most of them were of this kind. After I have googled it, I got confused, 'cause I was actually sure that we picked up these mushrooms! *facepalm* Anyway we got many of them :D But not only mushrooms, we picked up a few kilo apples from the trees near the field there and took some hazelnut and walnuts from the forest. Hehe! So what's our harvesting was look like! The nuts-photo was done on the weekend, so don't be surprised that the sun is shining - it'not -____-

Sunday afternoon

Soo.. This weekend I'm alone because my husband went backpacking with his guys. The weather was rather good yesterday morning, but since ca. 14 o'clock it has been only raining and raining and raining... and it's windy and just nasty.. But I should say I have nothing against such weather when I can stay home :D I love it to sit at home and look out of the window when it's raining! And I often see a blackbird male on the roof in front of our house..I actually don't know if it's the same one but I think so, because I see him there many times a day. And now he's sitting there again and it's raining, he seems really alone to me and I'd like to invite him in our flat, you know, offer him a cup of tea with oat-cookies and present him a small and cute handmade scarf :) Don't think I'm crazy! Maybe he's there only to make his thing you know :D Have you ever seen such blackbirds? They run funny :)

So here he is (it's not a today photo):

But I'm not just lazy sitting indoors... I spend my time in handmade (finally). Now I'm creating a couple of cute Easter greeting cards. One is for my penpal from India and the other one - I don't know yet.. But the next one I would cross-stitch will be a blackbird. I found a nice desing of a redwinged blackbird (an American one), and after the Easter cards I stitch it ;)

At the end of this post I'll show you our beautiful candle house. I love him! <3 enjoy!

For today I've planned some yoga for my back and to hoover the carpet!

Last week we bought a bird-house for our garden birds. And now it seems to work! :) Today I've caught two of visitors who were enjoying their meals in a sunny day ^_____^

I have just seen two sweet bunnies jumping below our window ^____^
