I noticed tiny, tiny snowflakes yesterday evening just before going to bed and this morning they had grown a bit bigger and multiplied a lot. They don’t fall down though, they fall sidewise in the strong eastern wind that never seem to leave us. Normally we have winds from west here and since I can’t feel them here where I live I don’t care much about them. Eastern winds however reach my home and since they usually comes during winter and they tend to be nasty cold I really don’t like them. Eastern winds during summer however, very rare though, are nice and warm even if they have blown over the Baltic Sea so I do like them then 🙂 🙂

I had a chat with my neighbour today, everyone in the family is at home and have a cold, he’s the only one not getting it yet. He wanted to put one of their cars in their garage but couldn’t because they have a greenhouse standing there right now 🙂 It is more or less the same size as mine and fully assembled. It will stand there for quite some time I’m afraid because he really can’t secure it to the ground while it is frozen and we have these everlasting strong eastern winds 🙂

I made plum jam the other day and I still have those berries I picked last summer. So I started writing a list on what I need to buy next time I go to a grocery store. I need to buy something we call jam-sugar. It’s regular sugar but also has pectin in it already. It comes in 1 kg packets so I also need to buy some more fruits or berries so I have enough for 1 kg of sugar. I’m not sure the peaches they sell now taste anything, blueberries  are never wrong but hardy kiwi is rather nice as well but expensive. I can of course by frozen berries, it wouldn’t matter if they thawed on the way hone since it only takes a few minutes to make the jam anyway.

It is time for that last cup of tea and later on I might watch the opening of the Olympic Games, or go to bed 🙂 I had a cup of Trea earlier today and wished I had something to eat, like a bun. Then suddenly I said to myself that it sounds as if the ice cream lorry is going down the road and it was 🙂 🙂 🙂 So now I have lots of ice cream in the freezer 🙂

Have a great day!
