Lunch at the beach
We are having Some wonderful warm summer days here on the southern coast of Norway. We enjoy a few days off before the upcoming wedding on Saturday and today was perfect to chill at the beach. We brought our sup (stand up paddle) board and had totally fun practicing and paddle. This is a wonderful and fun investment. It's not for small children but for teens and adults this is a perfect "toy". It's also pretty sustainable (even if it's made of rubber). It's definitely nothing you throw away after one or two times use like any other floating plastic toy.. it has more than one use and it might be used for both stand up paddle (like it's meant to) but also sitting, laying down, playing, floating, relaxing... I tried sup first time last ...
garden green watermelon salad
Happy Sunday! Sundays are time for relaxing and recharging... in our household it's family time, time for good food and just hanging around the house, being together doing things we love, feeling relaxed and comfy. In Norwegian we call it "koselig" or "kose seg "... same as danish "hygge", wich I notice have been a hot, trendy word after it became clear the Danes (and Scandinavian people) are ranked to be the happiest people in the world ... so obviously "hygge" or as we say "kose seg" must be a good thing .... 😂 Today our Sunday have been spent at home, we packed for departure tomorrow ... grandma (mommo ) came by to try some dresses and we helped her pick the right one for the upcoming wedding. It was so much fun. We had lunch and ...
