Blueberry Destroying Machine







For the past few weeks, he has been offering his (half-chewed) food very generously :)



"Hmm it tastes so much different when I put it in this bit of my mouth instead. Weird s***."

Officially, the minimum focussing distance of my camera is 28 cm. You see my problem there :P

My Summer Diet (2)

Wild blueberries, wild mushrooms (chantarelles), wild smoked bass.
Both Marco and I enjoyed every last bite.

The nearest farmers' market, where they sell wild berries and wild mushrooms as well.
Foraging in the forests is practically a national sport in Estonia. ;)

Apple pie, which lasts me for about 15 minutes (A)

Tomato-onion-cheese quiche, which lasts me for days :)

When Marco's Asleep (5)




A lace-knit jumper for Marco's Italian grandmother or Nonna. She ordered it to be pure white, so wool was out of the question. I opted for acrylic instead. Needle size 3.75 mm. I had actually finished all the pieces in June, but was able to sew everything together only at the end of July. I posted it immediately afterwards - it should reach Perth very soon :)
The design (in Finnish) - http://www.novita.fi/index.php?cms_cname=neulemallisivu&nlm_id=90259

I'm grateful to my mother for helping me with some of the finishing touches :)

My Summer Diet


Vanilla ice cream with cherries from our garden.
(The few dozen cherries that the birds ever so graciously left for us).

Should I ask for help?
