Another little bit of summer preserved—syrup and compote from local produce. 🍓

Tomato update: they’re thriving, I’m emotionally invested, and I’ve accepted that this is my personality now. 🍅🌿

I have officially graduated to growing actual food. The very first windowsill tomatoes are here, taking their time shifting from a dusty green to a pale, warm yellow. I am disproportionately proud. 🥲

The grass is high, the school bells have stopped, and the fields have taken over. Part one of a short series on Midsummer is up on the blog today. 🌻 www.patreon.com/velvetandwil...

Did you know that in Sweden, the crane "carries light to bed"? 🕯️🦢 Today marks #Trandagen, a celebration of spring’s return. From candy-filled stockings in the southeast to waffles for everyone, it’s one of the most charming traditions of the year. #SwedishTraditions #CraneDay

Me: Staring at the poetic duality of a crescent moon and a burning horizon. 🌅 My dogs: Intensely debating the structural integrity of a damp stick. 🐩

I almost missed a small painting in a crowded thrift shop. Now it hangs on our wall, carrying someone else’s summer with it. www.patreon.com/posts/painti...

Happy first birthday, Julian. ❤️ A year of tiny discoveries, crumbs and burps, quiet mornings, and laughter that fills the whole house. You are entirely, perfectly yourself — and every day with you is a story I never want to end. www.patreon.com/posts/one-ye...

An internet friend recently gave me a writing prompt that sent me back to the page. This is the second piece I’ve written, but the first time I’m sharing the blog here. Pressing post feels far more exposing than the writing itself. If you’re curious: www.patreon.com/posts/archit...

It’s the same half-hour loop I’ve done a thousand times, yet the shadows never fall in quite the same way twice. It’s a reminder that even when life feels static, the light is always shifting. Or perhaps it’s just a reminder that I need a better pair of walking boots. Either way, it’s a start. 😍

Happy Friday from this bleak grey abyss. I’ve decided the only cure is retail therapy in the form of excessive Christmas decorations. Pray for my wallet. 🙏

Happy Monday friends — reporting live from the teething trenches. Tooth number three is here and morale is… wobbly. Send coffee. 😅🦷 In the spirit of survival, please enjoy this frozen-lake sunset from a quieter moment. ❄️❤️

You said figs were good. You didn’t warn me about the unholy perfection of fig marmalade + cheese + knäckebröd. Now I’m addicted. 🫠 This is on you @aizuyabanjin.bsky.social 😌🔥🧀

Tomatoes, onion and garlic in the oven → a bowl of something that tastes like autumn and care. A little olive oil, basil and crème fraîche on top. Simple things done slowly… that’s the whole charm, really.

An extra hour beneath the last of the autumn leaves and a sky full of stars. ✨

There’s a quiet sort of joy in stirring a pot for someone who’s just learning what taste means. Apricot purée and apple sauce for baby J, a small start to a lifelong love of good food. ❤️

The years show softly on her now, in the silver around her muzzle and the calm in her eyes. But she’s still my wild heart, my beautiful, loyal, autumn girl. ❤️

Still dumbstruck about this being the view from my kitchen window… mist swirling over the lake, sunlight breaking through, coffee in hand, and a squealing little one enjoying porridge beside me. Good Friday indeed.

Golden fields, crisp air, and young cows leaping as if autumn itself had given them wings, until curiosity won, and they gathered by the fence to study the pram.
