Cold start

Windy, cold and sunny, typical island weather in March here on Aeroe. Traditionally the islanders (and Danes in general I think) make a dough, wrap it around a stick and bake over open fire during Easter. Usually done on a field or by the sea, but it was freezing today so I refused to go longer than just outside the house. You'll have your bread with sausages and eggs, and of course a cold Easter brew to wash everything down with.

Granny were dogsitting the Madsen dogs while the cousins and boys we're making their set of grilled dough elsewhere, she's on the side of the family that are not cat-people. Their dogs are great though, friendly, small and easy to be around.

Thanks, there's some melancholia in there, don't you think?

melancholic, distressing but yet somehow joyful?

don't know if you've discovered a swedish minimal tech artist called "the field", whos music is def most comparable to the description i just did om the pic.
