It is definitely August and Harvest Month (the old Norse word for it) in the garden right now! So much to do, and so little that I do… I just don’t feel like harvesting anything other than our dinner at the moment. 
But the corn will have to be eaten soon or else it will spoil. The kids got to chose their own produce for their own plots, and our teenager chose corn. I’m not a fan of corn, but if I do eat it – freshly picked corn is the best!
Lots of flowers in the garden right now.
We have many poisonous plants in spite of being a family with kids. They usually don’t eat plants, I have found. Rocks, yes, pebbles, definitely, but plants – nope. Unless it’s lettuce.
My pelargonium are flowering abundantly this summer.
The pond adds so much to our garden. 
The sound from the brook drowns out the sound of traffic. We live right in the middle of our small town, close to a busy road.
Our rabbit Pricken (=Spotty) loves fresh carrots just as much as we do! 
Fresh red currants on a cake that Niklas made. He loves baking and eating. I just love photographing his cakes! (and eating the currants)
We live in walking distance from the harbor. You can actually see the sea from our upper windows, and hear the sounds of seagulls when you’re in our garden.
I love going for walks near the sea. I can’t imagine not living near water. There is something so calming about the sea, and the way it changes with the seasons and the time of day.
Hopefully we’ll still have some more warm days this year!
