Tuesday Finds: Birches

The cold winter weather continues here in Finland. The downside? My fingers go numb even on the short walk into town. Nose too.

The upside? Views like the one on the right, with the snow-covered branches of birches and other trees. It's been quite the winter wonderland lately, with clear blue skies and white snow.

It might even be worth a few numb fingers.

Tuesday Finds: Valentine's Day

Happy belated Valentine's Day! Did you do anything special for it?

Here in Finland it's more of a day for friends, rather than lovers. Most years I just wish a happy "ystävänpäivä" to any friends I happen to see or talk to on the day, but otherwise it passes without much attention. Mr Morrgan and I made a lovely dinner together though, it's always nice to have an excuse for that.

(We had also planned a romantic evening of shooting aliens co-op in Halo: Reach, but by the time we were done with dinner, it was pretty late and we had an early wake-up the next day. Oh well.)

Tuesday Finds: Travelling

End of January. It's about that time of year when I feel like travelling. Sure, the weather is nice and cold at the moment, with pretty white snow around. But, before you know it, the snow's melting and everything is wet and grey and icky.

Seems like a good idea to me to make travel plans and prepare now, in order to be ready to flee once the unpleasant part of early spring shows up.

Tuesday Finds: O Tannenbaum

Hello there, new year of 2011! I wonder what you will bring for us all. Have any of you made any New Year's resolutions? I haven't made any particular ones, although there is a vague determination to make things happen this year. Things Need To Be Done, my brain says. What these things are, though, that remains to be seen.

As I was away from the internet over the Christmas and New Year holidays, I thought I'd take the chance now to show off a few pretty trees I noticed before my vacation. I do like trees, for Christmas and otherwise.

Tuesday Finds: Relaxing

I have just edited my Etsy shop listings. All 103 of them. All. Day. Long. My eyes hurt, my neck hurts and my brain is fried after so long by the computer.

Sounds like right about now would be the perfect time to curl up in my favourite comfy chair with a warm blanket, a good book, a cup of cocoa and a giant giraffe. Yup.

Tuesday Finds: Let It Snow

Yay for snow! It's finally snowed enough around here that I can look outside and see the ground covered with white fluffy stuff. So refreshing after the grey and slush of autumn. Inspired by this, here's a selection that reminds me of the pretty snow of winter in one way or another.

Tuesday Finds: Here Kitty Kitty

This week we're celebrating my cousin's cat Viiru's return to his family, after having been missing for 5 weeks - a lot thinner and dirtier, but ok. Welcome home, Viiru!

(Mr Morrgan suspects poor Viiru had much the same expression as Mariska's Boris below while missing.)
