Another week has passed. It snowed. Again. Slushy streets turned into a moon landscape when the slush froze over. Riding my bike in these conditions is not much fun, I can tell you. Spring was in the air at Svenskt Tenn though where I loved the ivy growing through the chair. But first I was home sick for a couple of days. I caught Wille’s cold from the week before. Still a bit under the weather.
Have a good week!
More snow here in Zurich, too. Thankfully the sugary kind. I have had THREE head colds this year; it seems a lot of folks have been sick more than usual. I'm with you - it's time for Spring! I think maybe one more month for us, and we'll be on our way.
Feel better, and thanks for the great snapshots of your life.

I like the chair with the plant growing through it, the contrast looks so pretty.

Oh, I hope you feel better soon! Colds are the pits. Mini and Bonus are looking gorgeous as ever - Mini always looks like she's deep in thought :)

I know, she always has that little frown :)

Spring is in the air in your part of the world.
Here, over the weekend I felt the first gentle touch of Autumn.

Gute Besserung!

Hope you get better real quick, Benita. Being sick is such a waste of time isn't it?
Your photographs are so awesome and look like they came right out of a glossy home-dec magazine.
I like the annoyed ears that Mini and Bonus are wearing in that last pic. They look like they're impatiently waiting for something. :)

I have several more from that moment when they're at each other. Tails wagging, ears back :).

You need a "fat bike." :)

Hello Benita, I would say that you need studded tires for you bike. I have some, made in Finland, on my bike and they are perfect to ride on all kind of frozen surfaces. I know however, that no matter what the tires are, riding on a moon surface is not really fun. Good luck and winter is almost finished ;-)

I DO need a fat bike :)

Hello Benita, I hope you feel better soon! Stylish Kleenex boxes and snuggling kitties should help. :-)
I'm about to give up on ugly tissue box designs here in the states. This minimal paper pot is on my wishlist:

Ooh, I saw those in a local store but only in red and on sale. Love the white one. Obviously :)

I would say: a fat bike and a soft seat cushion for riding on those moon surfaces ;-).
Hope you are feeling better
