Endurance is most essential when hanging out with my nieces. Here’s three of them and yours truly during a theatre rehearsal. When they write the script, I often get the role of a horse. Day 31. Photo by Sanna.
Robin’s tap essay from 2012 is about a dead fish. But also about the difference between liking and loving something on the internet. Day 30.
If you haven’t checked out Sarah Andersen’s webcomic, you should! Stripes for day 29.
September last year: working, fueled by wine and fair weather. Day 28.
Luckily, we stumbled upon this written communication during our stroll today. Day 27.
When this post goes live, overdue will change from 3 to 2. Day 26, schedule.
Hiaklitten is probably more of a hill than a mountain. But, for day 25, it will have to do.
I love when intricate patterns emerge from simple rules and mathematical formulas, like this bit field. It appears so complex, but the math is concise: (x ^ y) % 5. 👌 Check out Martin Kleppe’s thread from last year if you want to go down a rabbit hole.
On the twenty-third day, we had sweet potatoes and salmon for dinner. Accompanied by this avocado dip. The recipe? Mix green peas, avocado, and plain yogurt until smooth. Salt and pepper to taste.
Six years ago, Sanna and I visited the Textile Museum in Borås for the exhibition Game Over by Per Fhager. Seeing the games we played as kids – and to be fair, still do – blown up big, crossed stitched, warm and fuzzy was fascinating!
With just about an hour left of the day, Music’s Autoplay serves this one up on a silver platter. Symmetry for day 21. Phew. 😮💨
Today’s smoothie: frozen raspberries, banana, and vanilla oatgurt. My typical afternoon beverage. 😋 Day 20.
Day 19 – comics indulgence.
![Three comic books in a spread. The topmost one is Efter oss, syndafloden by David Olgarsson. The author and title of the bottom two are partially obscured. However, Moa Romanova and Inne i […] Liv can be seen. All three covers feature portraits of women.](https://dahlstrand.net/uploads/2023/b1e8067e3a.jpg)

Oh, man, we had friends over, and I almost missed today’s photoblogging challenge. 😅 Hold – day 17.
Let’s go back in time for day 16.
If you open the pendulum door and peek inside, you will find a piece of paper with typewritten words. Signed by my grandpa. The clock was a gift to him from his wife in 1961.
Every tick-tock reminds me of them.
Clouds – day 15 of the photoblogging challenge.
Carrot cake and fences on a fika last year. I think Sanna borrowed my phone to snap this shot while I was away fetching napkins for the spilled coffee.
One of the great things about the internet is that you will always find your community, no matter how niche your interests are. I’m into programming the 33-year-old Game Boy. Seems pretty… obscure, right? Well, when I write this, 821 souls are online on the gbdev Discord. 😮
Tranquillity for day 12.
This one has to pass as maroon for day 11 of the photoblogging challenge.
During one of my adventures in Death’s Door, I stumbled upon this fella named Pothead. He is cursed by a witch, so his head is nowadays a pot with firewood underneath. Hence his name, I guess. Day 10.
Yes, yes, I’ll admit. Unfortunately, today’s challenge ended up being a rush job. ☺️ Day 9: bloom.
On the eighth day, I present the union of egg, cream, spinach, psyllium husk powder, and a pinch of salt. If everything goes according to plan, this will end up as an omelet wrap.
