The same weather yesterday and most parts of today so I really haven’t much to write about neither yesterday or today. We did however get sunshine in the afternoon, just before the sun was about to set for the day 🙂 🙂 We’ve been in the garden every now and again but the dogs only ate some left over apples and then went indoors again 🙂 🙂

We went out to the bog (yesterday down to the creek) but I didn’t take many photos, the grey and dull weather sort of dampens ones will to take photos but I have plenty of older ones so I can fill up as many blogs as I wish for 🙂 🙂

Here comes some photos taken with my analog camera Agfa Ambiflex.

So these two days have been a bit boring to be honest, we did have some pancakes the animals and I and that’s always nice and we’ve had our walks but nothing more. I have actually bought myself another christmas present, a 900 grams (around two pound) Quality street chocolate tin box 🙂 Last year I bought the 2,5 kilo (around five pound) box but I couldn’t recognize the company that sold those so I took a smaller one this time. The odd thing is that it’s actually a computer business that sell them 🙂 🙂 🙂

It’s my favorite candy and I actually have character enough to not open it until christmas eve, the big day at christmas here in Sweden and I can also proudly say that it took a couple of months to finish the big box 🙂 I don’t have many memories with my father in them but he was a sailor and every time he had been to Great Britain he came back with one of those boxes 🙂 They are hard to find here so every christmas I buy one for myself 🙂 I always plan to use those tin boxes when the candy is gone but so far I’ve never done that, instead I have loads of tin boxes in the cupboards 🙂 🙂 🙂

And four taken with my analog camera Voigtländer Bessamatic.

This is taken on the more beautiful side of the island out in the bog.

It is time for that last cup of tea for the day. I’m not hungry after the pancakes ans I don’t have anything else than clementines so I’ll just have that tea today 🙂

Have a great day!

Pancakes sound like just the thing for these dark, misty days. I walked my dog yesterday in the mist, and we came home nearly soaked. I’m glad you have that connection with your past, through the tin of chocolates each holiday season. Alma looks so regal in that photo, and Malkolm is growing quite handsome. And Sara looks to be living her best life.

  Hi Goodport!
  
  It was perfect and I had Blackberry jam on them 🙂
  
  I rarely care about the past but there are a few things that brings me back 🙂
  
  I can only agree, she does look regal too bad she behaves like a spoiled brat when we’re out walking 🙂 🙂 🙂 To be honest, she behaved so well today that I almost went out of treats 🙂 and he is quite handsome. I have wondered about how he’ll look at the end, my thoughts went towards a small Golden and he’s almost there I think.
  I would be annoyed if Sara thought she had a crappy life, she’s so spoiled by us all 🙂 🙂

I like Quality Street chocolates too, but I could never keep them until Christmas. I think I could eat all of them within 2 days.

  Hi Poppy_Celeste!
  
  Well I eat so many other kinds of crap so I guess that gives me the strength to stay away from them 🙂 🙂 🙂 It is hard to stay away from them as soon as the lid has been opened though 🙂 🙂 🙂

    What willpower, C 😀 I’m like Poppy_Celeste… need to buy chocs very close to Christmas to have any on the day. I didn’t know QS were GF, I’ll have a look at fillings to see if it’s stuff I like. Thank you for the lovely photos. Glad you all had pancakes too make up for the dreary day. Sleep well and I hope it’s a better one tomorrow.

    Hi blythedunbar!
    
    They’re so expensive that I need to have character, can’t really afford to buy an extra one 🙂 🙂 🙂
    Well there can be traces of gluten in it but I can take traces. Usually when it says so on the box I’m totally fine, over here they tend to write that on lots of things just so they can’t be accused of getting people sick 🙂
    Thank You 🙂
