The farmer feeds his cattle just outside my cottage and silage doesn’t smell especially nice to be honest, a heavy sweetish stale scent that eats its way in to the brain 🙂

So a new place once again and now I have 99.98% left of space to use before I need to get a new place again 🙂 🙂 I have however actually paid for having the domain name locked to me, until now anyone actually could use the name Cottage by the Cranelake if they so had wished to. I chose this theme but that can change if I find any I like better later on 🙂

We’re having another sunny and beautiful day here, cold though and quite windy. I can hear the wind blowing but when I go outside nothing moves. the positive side of living at the bottom a slope, the negative side is that it is always a couple of degrees colder down here when it is cold. Then again it usually is hotter here as well on hot days so I guess it evens out even if it really doesn’t feel that way 🙂 🙂 🙂

I wanted to go out on the bog again this morning but since the dogs didn’t like it yesterday we instead walked down to the creek and back up to the little peninsula by the bog but some distance away from where we walked yesterday. Both Albin and Alma were staring towards the island all the time so I guess they still felt something was out there, Nova didn’t care at all and enjoyed the sunshine instead, just like I did 🙂

Besides that I’ve done very little. Napped for a while and I’ve had loads of tea.  I’ve also thawed some soil so that I can plant a mango pit. I do that every now and again and the little tree thrives until winter comes and the air in the cottage gets too dry, then it lose all its leafs and dies. This year I think of trying having a see through plastic bag around it so that the humidity around it will stay high all the time.

I have made some ice cream but haven’t tested it yet. Vanilla and a french jam with four fruits in it and to make it taste more I also added some lemon juice and I do hope I poured in enough of it. I’ll know better in an hour or so 🙂 The dogs and I have also had pancakes for dinner 🙂 Something we all enjoy 🙂

In this and the last photo I’ve tried to capture those sparkling dots from frost and sunshine but it’s tricky 🙂
