Today I was sitting in the car in traffic jam and I only could think one thing - food. Hot dog. It's very trendy, I know. Street food.

Cherry trees in bloom. Blackbirds are singing. We sit in the garden, what else you need? Today our new tradition was born - Hanami Hot Dog.

They last so short time. Cherry flowers. But they bring a promise of the summer.

  1. Such lovely photos - truly summery! The name of the little blue flowers is veronica, tädykkeet in Finish. We have lots of it in our garden, spread like soft pillows under bushes and trees (and I use it to pretty up salads).
