This is the supper of last night. Downright out-of-tune.. In Sweden, the crayfish season is August. In fullmoon. Sporting crazy hats, bibs, singing endless and awkward "schnapps songs".
Last night was almost fullmoon. And 6 month too early for the crayfish-eating-tradition. But who can wait? In Sweden, this behaviour is considered almost hedonian. But for a few maniacs like myself it just has to be..
Sunday we spent all day at an auction in Tofta south of Visby. The barn was full with eager buyers partly because of the fact that the auction included a lost property sale staged by the Visby police.
I landed two very good bikes, one old fashioned hand carpented wash stand with handpainted marbling and a beautiful Venetian chandelier for very good prices. This had to be celebrated in a good fashion. With gourmet Spanish crayfish and Swedish Reimersholme schnapps! We just sang once. Too busy gobbling up one packet of those little red things each! Believe it or not - this morning I got out of bed at 7AM and started happily polishing the crisp crystals of the Venetian chandelier and watched the raising February sun sending promising sparkels on the crystals and into the livingroom. I will now go and ride my new bike - some exercise is surely needed!
