OK - it's now official: it's June. It's summer in Sweden. Or so they say. But temperatures are low and it's raining cats and dogs outside my window, so I keep a fire going , keeping warm and cozy.
The whole thing is really very clever: first you get hot from cutting down the tree. Then you stay warm while chopping it. And now my cheeks are glowing from the burning fire. Mmmmmmm.
Don't have a fireplace? Here are some "fiery" inspiration, if you're planning to build one at your home.
Any summer where you are?
