Queen’s Tart

The inspiration for this post came from a fellow blogger in Sweden and her tart that she made using blackberries.

Fiskars

When I think of travel, I automatically think of far away places, but sometimes there are unique places to visit close by. We had an opportunity to take a little mini get-away for just a night.

St. John’s or Juhannus

In Finland the celebration of St. John’s is also a celebration of midsummer. The cities become deserted as people flee to their summer cottages to spend time with family and friends. Food and drink is in abundance. The ideal summer cottage is on a lake with a sauna. Birch trees line the yard creating some […]
