And it's so much prettier! :)Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18224478760304481724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8814165.post-1119788843623704412005-06-26T14:27:00.000+02:002005-06-26T14:27:00.000+02:00Love your midsummer post and the photo.

And you were right--they looked so much prettier since they didn't have the dark vinegar all over them. Thanks so much for introducing me to it!Farmgirl Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04851855517852917202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8814165.post-1119690126874090302005-06-25T11:02:00.000+02:002005-06-25T11:02:00.000+02:00Niki, midsummer is since many years back always ce...Niki, midsummer is since many years back always celebrated on the third Friday in June, for ease of planning. :) But technically, it should be something else, that's right. It's not really the mid of summer either anymore - summer weather almost never gets going until June here, so if we were really going for the "mid", it would indeed be in July. :) <BR/><BR/>Boating was wonderful this time around, the weather was awesome and the company great. I had a lovely time! And Per didn't get seasick! (For the first time, ever.) :)Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18224478760304481724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8814165.post-1119620457273781732005-06-24T15:40:00.000+02:002005-06-24T15:40:00.000+02:00And we're down here lamenting the shortest day of ...And we're down here lamenting the shortest day of the year and the winter solstice! <BR/>Wasn't it technically midsummer on the 22 June? Or do you enjoy the celebration on the nearest weekend evening to the actual date?<BR/>Technically, your midsummer should be some time in July, shouldn't it - if you're going for the technical day-in-the-middle-of-the-three-months-of-summer idea. Here, our seasons change on the first day of the month. <BR/>I love the sound of spending a festival day on a boat, watching the water and sky and enjoying good food with family and friends. Fabulous!!Nikihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16724833882784937754noreply@blogger.com
