Lördag, Featuring Sauerkraut & Pictures (but no pictures of Sauerkraut)

I dag är det lördag--marknadens dag! It's fun because every week the market looks different. This week there was a concurrent loppis or "garage-sale." I was looking for some shoes, but my luck played out on other fronts rather (i.e. carrots, leeks, cabbage, brocoli & two jars of Jämtland Honung.)

Afternoon back at the market. 

I brought back the purchases. Some of it went into the refrigerator, some of it went onto the shelf, and some of it went into a jar to incubate, whence, friendlies permitting, it shall emerge after several weeks as surkål--"sauerkraut."

Later in the afternoon I almost bumped into Östersund's Stadsmuseet so I decided to go inside. I had a fun conversation with the curator. He was a tough guy and he didn't put his ÖP (Östersund's newspaper) down the whole time he was talking to me, even though I could tell he was enjoying himself.

The building itself is super beautiful.

Here are some pictures from inside.
