*little abandoned house in the woods

Last pictures of our little getaway. I could not resist taking another picture of the little abandoned house again that you probably know when you regularly visited my blog over the last years. Every time I say, that I want to visit it once in winter time and it has not happened so far. I especially like the picture of the lake and how the heavy sky is reflecting in the water.

Yesterday I worked with clay again and in the garden, collected seeds and it became quite chilly towards the evening. I also harvested some carrots to preserve for winter. I cut them into little pieces and dried them. Never did that before, but I imagine that it will be very practical to add them to homemade soups in the cold season. I'm not a fan of freezing food for conserving, never was. So our little freezer is mostly almost empty and only sometimes filled with ice cream, fish or berries.

When I saw the frost when waking up in the morning, I quickly made a fire in the stove and left the house with my analogue camera to take some pictures of the frozen grasses and flowers. Rabbits and deers were close again and it felt so right in the stillness of the breaking dawn.
