I wish I lived a place were I could have Hibiscus outdoor. We can buy small, indoor plants.
And what a color!

The white one is pretty too

Well, I have to admit that when I pick fruit, I like to pick the fruit which come with its own fork and no seeds

hıııımmmmm delicious

I have a feeling that @sommerfuglen_NO has fallen asleep in her pile of yarn. I wonder if new yarn will tempt her out of hiding. I have been busy creating new yarn instead of cleaning the garage. The color is a teal-blue.

Ohhhhhhh
Yarn

Anybody want some plums?

Me..I like them very much

There is plenty there to make some spirited drink and a spiced plum jam to enjoy during the dark days of winter.

There's still a ton of them on the tree too...

Ooohhh, I love plums!
I have maybe 40 plums on my tree, but they might fall off because of the non-existing rain.

I was afraid they wouldn't be any good because of the drought, but they're completely fine - and the tree is completely loaded, never had as many before.

There are 2 apple-trees and 2 pear-trees in my garden and they have never had so many fruits as this year (I've only lived here for 3 years now). I really hope that the fruits will be great when it's time to take care of them!

I would be happy to send you this next storm that is rolling in. It has rained since Saturday. My migraine isn't going away. Although to be honest, today is the first day of it which means the meds to prevent them are working.

The rivers are up and we should be seeing flooding soon. Thankfully, I know the areas that flood so my place is not in a flood area.

Why can't the weather be "lagom"?!
(Lagom is a very good swedish word that is hard to explain, but it means that you have e.g. sun but not too much and not too little, or you have rain but not too much and not too little, or you eat food but not too little so you are still hungry and not too much so you feel filled up, and so on.)

I hope your migraine will disappear soon!

that's a brilliant word, I can't think of an English equivalent, all of the words I can think of relate to a specific situation and not a general one

Yes, that’s probably correct - ”just right” or what was it she said?

”Lagom” for me is maybe not ”lagom” for you.
One sandwich is lagom for me but my friend thinks that two sandwiches is lagom.
The water temperature is lagom for my friend but I prefer it alittle warmer before I think it’s lagom.

Woohoo! My car is so fast, so I am the first one in the line of cars!
