At noon was -!5°C/ 5°F when I noticed we have to go to buy groceries. So I made a list what we need.

Kauppalappu 1.jpg — Cat food, bird seeds, something for us.

Then clothes, it is COLD.

It was cloudy, not much light and the photos are taken mostly in the car with a phone.

The first stop was on our village, for oat seeds for birds. They had no seeds and they had thrown their Christmas tree out.

tiellä 3 — At 13.50 o´clock driving to the nearest town, 14 km or 8,6 miles.

The second stop is for cat food. We are now in a town called Ikaalinen.

tokmanni ulko 5 — Our malls are small, and like always in our photos, no human beings.

hannu tokmanni 6 — My hubby looking for treats for Kosmo the Great, 17,63 pounds, 8 kilos.

The third stop is for birds and for us.

S-market 7.jpg — As I told, no human beings or anything else moving. Birds seeds and rye bread, butter, sauerkraut, potatoes, cookies, and smoked fish.

The fourth stop is very well-known almost around the world.

Lidl ulko 9.jpg — More than one car here. We bought salad dressing, apples, carrots, yoghurt, coffee, frozen fish ,ice cream, more fish, cream, cheese, cream crackers, crisp bread, chocolate, candies, spaghetti, tofu, sugar, feta cheese, red onions, cabbage, peanuts, tuna in tomato sauce…

Now we are ready to drive home. It is getting dark. In wintertime here is a blue moment before dark. It is now about 16.00 o´clock.

Rinnetie 1 10.jpg — Our village and the blue moment.

rinnetie 2 11 — Christmas is still here.

At home.
