FOUR DIFFERENT FLOWERS 

Flower season is here. Apple trees, dandelions everywhere (invasion this year and they are gigantic!), buttercups -"smörblomma"- in Swedish; and all the rest.

The show must go on, so now I´m going out for a walk to watch all these beauties.

ALLA HJÄRTANS DAG 

Tomorrow 14/02 is "Alla Hjärtans Dag" in Sweden or Valentine´s Day elsewhere -East & West included in the whole world. Probably no hugs or kisses tomorrow ... wash your hands clean and keep distance, please! (grrrr....!!!).

Valentine´s Day was celebrated first during the late 20th century here and not necessarily for couples in love only, but for friends or family members you appreciate too. That´s swell, ´cause not everyone has a partner.

There are flowers forever at home and I love it. Always different flowers according to the season or price. These violet tulips were a gift and they stand in a glass vase on the kitchen table. The sun today in Uppsala was so strong and bright that when I went to drink my first morning caffeine-full coffee I could´t resist to take a shot of these cute, silky tulips for my Instagram page. The light was incredible at 8 am and during the rest of the day. Tomorrow we shall celebrate with "kärleksmums" (traditionally baked for Valentine in Sweden. We made the Arla recipe for this cake, which I think is the best. You can google it) and violet tulips.

Ps: TULIP MANIA - did you know that a tulip war occurred in Holland during the early 1600s when speculation drove the value of tulip bulbs to the peaks? The rarest tulip bulbs could cost about six times the average person´s annual salary. During the Second-World War the tulip bulbs were used as food to be cooked and eaten in a hungry Holland!

You can watch the film "Tulip Fever (2017) with our own Alicia Vikander and among others the brilliant British actress Judi Dench and model Cara Delevingne. Although the film was not so popular, I myself enjoyed it.

So happy-go-lucky Alla Hjärtans Dag with social distance would you please!

6 February 2021 memories, Inspiration, Nature

MY FIRST TRAGEDY: BAMBI

My first childhood trauma was born after watching the Disney film "Bambi" with my mother. I am speaking of the original "Bambi" film from 1941. The premiere was in 1959 in my country (if my memory is good...) and I was three years old at that time.

We went to the cinema with my mother and I can even recall the row we were sitting. Such an impact this film made on me! Usually my memories are quite wrong; but in this case, not at all.

THE TRAGEDY: at the begining of the film you understand that some hunters are shooting raindeers in the forest. You hear the "bang" and you realise that Bambi´s mother is being shot. OMG!!! how I suffered! I was traumatized for years. So sad! poor Bambi left alone in the forest.

Since that time I feel very deep for all animals, birds, fish and insects. I empathize with them; I suffer deeply when they are killed or when they die. And I have it difficult to eat meat, fish or other. I just can´t.

DEAR WALT: thank you for making me suffer so much with poor, lonely Bambi. Would you please change the plot of your film some time?

Thanks!
