So nice to be back in the #Finnish #Archipelago.
The summer is over, yet the temperatures are unseasonably warm. It’s quiet. Relaxing. Sauna, a dip in the Baltic Sea. An adult beverage or a few. *ahem*
Have a good weekend, CoSoNauts!
Right now, at our summer place. Very peaceful and quiet. #Finnish #Archipelago
Mushroom season is well under way. An hour in the forest. Some were fried as a side dish for deer tenderloin. The wee ones will be pickled.
Spent 45 minutes in the forest earlier today and picked a bucket full of chanterelles! Looks like it's going to be a good mushroom season.
So, I made chanterelle risotto, with a deer (calf) eye of round, and a red wine reduction.
It was pretty damn good! 🍷 🍽️

There's this chap in Finland who makes delicious #pickled #garlic cloves. I bought a few jars from him last year at an #archipelago #fair, but they didn't last long.
I've been trying to catch him since then and finally today, he was at another archipelago fair and I seized the opportunity to stock up and bought seven jars.
Everything he makes is delicious, but my favourite is the Naga Jolokia garlic clove pickle. It has good heat and that delicious, fruity Naga Jolokia flavour!

Oiled the dock and the deck today, and afterwards rewarded myself with an adult beverage. 😎 #vacation #Finnish #Archipelago

It was a beautiful day in the #Finnish #Archipelago today. On our way back earlier today, from a long weekend at our summer house.
Experimenting with #Midjourney.
This was a simple prompt, inspired by the legendary #Thief games, without referencing Thief games, or stealth games in general. I can only imagine what can be generated with more advanced and nuanced prompting.
I'm well impressed!
