midsummer







I finished my exams Thursday and went on to celebrate together with D and E and Pop Tart and friends with a midsummer-celebration in this really cool place close to where we live: Its an urban community garden created on an old factory ground. Everybody grow vegetables and herbs together and everyone is invited to just show up and join in. It is a really nice place and they threw the best midsummer-celebration I have been to in a long time. In Denmark we have a lot of midsummer -or Skt. Hans as its called - traditions that Im not really that into, but at Prags garden they just made a fire, and offered campfire bread, beers and rhubarb dessert. Elinor just loved the place - mostly because of her love for digging in the dirt!

The garden seems like a great space! What is your favorite thing to grow?

Congrats on completing your exams. I wish we made more of a big deal about Midsummer Night here in the UK, we usually just call it the longest day. I have a question: how old are you? I'm impressed you're doing your masters, working and you have a child. Is this the way you do things in Denmark?! I love it.
