The hyacinths flowers. It took them about two months just as said in the instructions. I followed the instructions and wonder why my flowers don’t look as fantastic as those on the package 😉 Mine are not as colorful and strong and have not as many flowers on the stem. Anyway, it was interesting to follow the development. I think I will try some daffodil bulbs in the vases next. If there are bulbs to buy this early of the year.

Mural
We had read about the mural in Karakallio painted by a Finnish artist Teemu Mäenpää. We, today, were in the neighbourhood in some errands and decided to drive there on the way back home. It’s a nice painting, isn’t it ? I like it. The story tells the couple in the painting lives there.
Miniature Model Railway Exhibition
Last week we visited the largest miniature model alpine railway exhibition in Finland. Arranged by the Alppirautatieharrastajat/The Alpine Railway enthusiasts at Sello shopping centre. It was both interesting and nice. I liked the trains but suddenly found myself admire the alpine views. They were beautiful with the tiny buildings and animals. There was a lot of visitors. The children really loved it. A dad with his, about 4 years, boy said they had been visiting the exhibition for several times because his boy wanted to go there again and again.
Goodbye Christmas tree
Jacky’s favorite place for the last two weeks has been under the Christmas tree. Yesterday we to, Jacky’s disappointment, took it out. The living room looks so empty 🙂 But, good thing is no more needles 😉
Drawing
One last drawing for now. I’m going to not draw anything in the nearest future 😀
2018 January 1st
I hope you all had a great New Year’s Eve and Day. Here are some photos from yesterday, my first day of the year. A few centimeters of new fresh white snow in the morning covering the remains of the New Year’s fireworks. A new drawing which I’m not satisfied with at all. And, my first time, beetroot blue cheese casserole. It was yummy.
