Sy-maraton i ny systue
De siste ukene har jeg «gått på jobb» etter frokost og, bare avbrutt av tissepauser, sydd til det har blitt mørkt. Jeg er inne i et sy-maraton som har blitt til bøttehatter, toalettmapper, vesker, grytekluter, pannebånd m.m.
Dette er vår lille gård i Sverige. Den er på 7 hektar, hvorav halvparten er skog og halvparten er åker. Foreløpig bruker vi bare en liten del av åkrene, og en nabo klipper gresset for å vedlikeholde dem. Men vi har mange planer og prosjekter, og du er velkommen til å lese om dem her.

Spring is the busiest time of our year. There’s seeds to sow, plant s to grow and garden beds to make or remake. Yet, I dream of spending time in my hammock with a good book.
I have been in a program to register the production of food in a private garden. I have spent 180 hours tidying, planting, weeding, watering, and harvesting fruit and vegetables.
Baking with pumpkin has become a new favourite of mine. The cakes are very moist and can store in room temperature for several days.
I have always dreamt about having a garden. A space with lush foliage and mature trees. Lots of flowers through the entire summer as well as things to harvest. And, a place to sit and relax.
It has been a hard winter, particularly for our trees and shrubs. However, those that have made it are starting to bloom.
May is the time for rhubarb harvest. I have researched ways of using rhubarb, and here is a list of what I have done this year.
