We tried to go for a hike yesterday. It was beautiful in the forest but we soon had to turn back because the snow was too deep. Petey is a careful little man who prefers to walk on plowed paths.
Dals Långed by Night
Dals Långed by Night
Growing up in a Stockholm I never saw much fog as a child. When I did, it would usually be while going to visit grandma in the countryside or when waking up early and crawling out of the tent on a camping trip. Here in Dals Långed, I feel like there’s been fog every other day since the autumn began. It’s spooky and I love it. I took this picture at around 9 pm a couple of weeks ago.
Foggy Morning
One of the upsides of living in the country side is that you get to observe nature change with the seasons. It was amazingly beautiful out there today. I’ve uploaded a wallpaper size raw version of this photo. Just click the image to download.
Chanterelles for Lunch
It’s an excellent year for mushrooms this year. During the fall I’ve picked a couple of litres of chanterelle and many more litres of funnel chanterelle. The chanterelle is the most popular mushroom in Sweden. There are two reasons for this. It tastes good, and it’s easy to pick since you can’t confuse it with any poisonous mushrooms.
The chanterelle is yummy in a stew or sauce, but here I’ve just fried them in butter and placed on a plain piece of white bread. A beer with that and you’ve prepared what many Swedes would consider a luxury lunch.

Snapped this picture in Visby, Gotland this summer.
