Today I am grateful for the wonderful ending to the weekend, when my daughter and I baked pizza together. That is something we do almost weekly, but it still adds so much joy every time when we share this experience. Waking up this morning (it’s still early morning) our wonderful evening was on my mind,…

Today I spent some time making a map of my allotment garden. I placed all the perennials in their places, and now I can easily see the spaces available (the empty squares are empty garden beds) for annuals. Annuals are plants that only live for a year. In colder climates many plants are grown as…

Today I am grateful for the beautiful LEGO-roses my daughter built, and gave me last night. She also made the LEGO-vase. It was such a thoughtful gesture. What are you grateful for today? Would you like to join me in this Daily Gratitude Practice 2026? Maria

Welcome to the weekend coffee share. Can I get you a cup of coffee? Or tea? It’s been a very quiet week. The highlight was probably watching the Swedish music competition “Melodifestivalen”, with my daughter last night. It is a series of music competitions leading up to the big Eurovision song contest later this spring.…
