Snow bath

In winter it is fun to roll around or otherwise enjoy a snow bath in the yard after the steam bath inside

Soup and snow

The wonderful winter weather continues, so we decided to make soup on the wood stove. Soup seems to be the great winter food, warms and fills you up.And the soup simmers on the stove while we keep the cabin warm.

Recipe:
Roots you like (carrots, celery, parsnip and rutabaga in our soup), potatoes
20 franks
2 vegetable broth cubes, salt, pepper, herbs, enough water to fill pot /cover everything.
Simmer as long as needed. Serve with whole grain bread.

It started snowing suddenly in the afternoon, and we got several inches by evening. The fire in the stove has been burning all day.
