Waiting for tomatoes


The polar night is coming to an end, and the sun is finally reaching up above the horizon. Just barely, but still powerful. To see the sunlight, we had to walk up to a height. Today is the first day I have actually seen the sun for a week. The pinkish, smudged, red ball hovering over the blue fjord, took my breath away. I wasn’t the only one to stop and try to capture the beauty. These pictures are taken during the last few days in Kirkenes, Norway. All the pictures are taken midday, and this is as light as it gets. The final pictures is from Gardermoen, near Oslo.
At the market yesterday a guitar caught our eye, an old Hagström acoustic guitar. We knew right away that this guitar would be coming home with us. For 25$ (200 Norwegian Kroner) the guitar changed hands.
A little research revealed that the guitar might have been manufactured in the 50’s and first sold for 18$ (150 Norwegian Kroner). Now she has a new home. Where has she been all these years?

The process of making food involves several senses. I like being in the process. While making vegetarian pho the other day, I could dwell on the ingredients’ fragrance, taste, color and consistency.
