stockholm weekend pics, a market in nacka


it was a difficult weekend and continues to be this week.  in my volunteer work i find myself in an extremely uncomfortable position involving a really big bully.  i haven't slept or eaten well.  moments in my days i am strong and when i think that perhaps she is living a life void of love and friendship, that she is hurting and that is why she bullies, the sting of her bite lessens. other times i feel weak and broken.  i want to choose light, reassured by the comforting words of friends, being hugged, and taking deep breaths. 

the nobelberget marknad was exactly what i needed...

being at the market and hearing these guys play such happy tunes i couldn't help but shimmy and smile ear to ear.  there was also a gin bar -ginbaren in swedish!  and you bet, i drank one of those in the company of friends... swedish-made gin, it was perfect.  we bought some blåbärsylt too - blueberry jam.  i smear some on a piece of bread and every bite has me rolling my eyes back with delight. the blueberries come from northern stockholm, hand-picked. little pleasures :) 





 
hope you had a lovely weekend.
