Swedish Summer

A few impressions of a Swedish summer. Nothing more, nothing less.

Happy Midsommar everyone!!

The Armoury.

Dismissed to Swedish summer on the balcony. Come thunderstorm or shine.

And then there was rhubarb.

I am always amazed how nature in Sweden “explodes” within like 3 weeks from when it starts being continously around plus 5 degrees centigrade and more. This is the first round of rhubarb harvesting. Exceptional for what I am used to. If the nice warm, wet weather continues, we are looking at another load like this in a few weeks time. Nice! There will be crumble pie and jam. Any good rhubarb jam recipes anyone?
