first week

-enjoying sun (i decided this photo of V is an hommage to H Schjerfbeck, a favorite artist)
-taking many baths (salvia and calendula)
-seeing many tractors from the window
-admiring different types of moss
-washing dishes on bathroom floor
-watching the outside toilet go overboard... then my mum came and changed the bucket there.
(the ventilation is still not installed, Y has had trouble finding the materials.
eco-toilet needs mechanic ventilation to avoid any smells)
-drinking a lot of tea (fennel and rooibos-lemon grass)
-eating lots of cabbage
(V calls herself kaalihullu, fenkoliteehullu and hapankaalihullu. and rusinahullu, taatelihullu, aprikoosihullu) (=crazy for cabbage, fennel tea, sauerkraut, raisins, dates, apricots...)
-watching Bergman: Scener ur ett äktenskap
-shopping: flowers from flower/funeral shop, fair trade bananas AND oranges from the worse supermarket
(but no organic carrots anywhere, the core element of my kitchen)
-wearing the same long cardigan all the time
-receiving first mail! i found the alphabet ribbons in the mailbox on the first morning. under them a house gift for us from me: M Isola fabric as a linen-cotton towel. for the kindergarten kid V.E. and some for her friend E.
(my first Etsy shopping, found through a tip from Marie/Là)

ps. our connection isn't working yet, but i'm free riding on someone else's, i don't know how that's possible with so few houses around!
