Winter mushroom

Apparently, funnel chantarelles are also known as “winter mushroom”, and when living in Umeå and cooking them, it always felt like winter was just around the corner as the air took on an unmistakable chill.

Not so today. If anything, it feels like living through an eternal summer, even as the winter will of course come to Gothenburg as well at some point (although probably not for many months yet). Earlier today, the kids and I took the bus over to Säve and deep into the mountain to check out “Aeroseum” with lots of Cold War memorabilia, including GDR posters, spy life stories, and tons of planes and helicopters.
