Matteo's fishing

                                        They were yummy

Gravad or Rimmad Lax?

Luca goes to University in Florence, and left home over a month ago... now he's coming for two day visit for his dad's birthday, and he's bringing his girl-friend too, so ofcourse I asked him what he wants to eat those two days and what he wants his girl-friend to taste... Right off his answer was salmon! So.... this morning we bought a 4,5kg fresh salmon... we put a part in the freezer for a good soup one day, and the rest we cured with salt and sugar and dill.... wrapped it up and put it on a tray in the fridge with a weight over it, and it'll be perfect for birthday lunch accompanied with boiled potatoes and maybe a sauce... 

Graffiti

These funny little fish swim on walls and fences here. Someone has been painting them allover the place, and even though it's illegal graffiti, I really think they're cute and they make me smile!!! I'll keep photographing them as they appear in front of me. Often they are on tiny country roads, so I've told my kids to hunt for them too!
And while driving around I saw this one and ofcourse it had to be photographed too!!!
