"I want you to feel in your thigh how piercingly hungry I am."

Allvarligt talat, våra politiker... Tack och lov når nyheterna om viftande med falukorv och dignande tallrikar av kalla Scans köttbullar ej utanför landets gränser. Ska de här symbolerna föreställa Sverige och det äkta härligt svenska? Jösses.

Been to the shops and now going home. It's refreshingly chilly here. We loves it, precious.

The snowy owl has now ,sadly, officially been declared extinct in Sweden. And yes, it's to do with the climate crisis. There's hope a good year for lemmings might bring it back this side of the Scandinavian mountains. Here's to hoping.
In Swedish the snowy owl is called "fjälluggla": "mountain owl."

Oh boy wasn't Tomas Tranströmer a wonderful poet. The language almost ordinary, the underlying meaning so profound.

I read Fosse's "Vaim" in one sitting last night. It's not long (182 pages, in this Norwegian edition), and the absence of chapters and fullstops makes for an irresistible reading flow that almost can't be stopped. Fosse's language is riveting.
Yet another excellent novel by this Norwegian master.

Snow is coming. First yellow alert for snow in Stockholm this winter. ❄️

Breakfast this morning: Swedish 'messmör' ('whey butter') on toast. As its colour may suggest, messmör is related to Norwegian bronost ('brown cheese') and comes originally from parts of Sweden that not only border but also have been parts of Norway in the past.

The arrival of the winter is heralded by gorgeous weather.
Last night's winds and sleet have left place for a gloriously sunny winter day.
Working from home, a walk after lunch in the fresh, crisp air is a must (as is a selfie, apparently)
