Welcome to the weekend coffee share! Can I get you a cup of coffee? Or tea? Fall is in full swing. There’s beautiful colours all around. All the fall foliage around us makes up for the current grey skies that we have today.

Besides work and school, I’ve enjoyed several amazing bike rides in and around our city this week. I am sharing some of the photos I took during these rides in this post.

We’ve had a high of around 60F/16C most days, some scattered rain showers, some sun, some cloudy days.

Monday-Friday I read a lot of school related books and reports before the start of my work day, but in the evenings and during the weekend I give myself permission to read whatever I want. Yesterday I picked up the book in the first photo at the library (I’ve been waiting for it for several months). It is a new book of one of my favourite Swedish authors. It is the third book in a trilogy about Northern Sweden, the forest, the right to land, and strong women. It is a fiction novel about a family, but it has many similarities with history. I started to read this book yesterday and finished it today, it was very good.

What’s going on in your corner of the world? What colours do you see when you walk outside?

We have a mix of red, yellow, some green, and some brown.

I do love the variety of trees in our area. Trees are interesting and makes any place come alive. I think our city would be rather dull if there was only one kind of trees, I can’t even imagine what that would look like.

I am very grateful for the variety of trees and colours of nature.

They are making new flower arrangements around town every few weeks, and it is always a joy to see the new ones.

Tomorrow I am planning on getting up super early and bake cinnamon rolls to surprise my daughter. Tomorrow is our official Cinnamon Roll Day in Sweden. Thank you Natalie for hosting the weekend coffee share! Please help yourself to a refill and tell me about your week! Any plans for this weekend?
