Przyjemności późnej wiosny/Pleasures of late spring


Zanim się obejrzałam, a w zasadzie zrobiło się lato. Choć to jeszcze w sumie kalendarzowa wiosna, więc pisać będę o wiosennych przyjemnościach;-)

I have just realized that as a matter of fact we already have summer. As it is still a calendar spring, I am going to write about spring pleasures:-)



A więc można znów zaszaleć na jachcie, spędzając cały weekend na wodzie.

So finally we can spend whole weekends on the water.



Niektórzy do przyjemności zaliczają wędkarstwo:)
Some of us consider angling as a pleasure:)


Osobiście wolę oglądać co się dzieje na wodzie, czytać książki, robić zdjęcia:)
Personally I prefer watching what is happening on the water, read books and take pictures:)



Obserwować na przykład ptasi raj w szuwarach.
Watching birds’ paradise in the reed.


Albo łabędzie na gnieździe.
Or swans on the nest.


Jeśli chodzi o kulinaria, to lekko, coraz lżej. Polecam moje odkrycie smakowe w tym sezonie – sałatkę z gotowanych zielonych szparagów, młodego szpinaku, pomidorów, oliwek, a dla bardziej głodnych z jajkami i dobrze przesmażonym boczkiem. Do tego sos z oliwy, musztardy, octu balsamicznego i dużej ilości cytryny. Pycha!

When it comes to cooking, of course it is getting lighter and lighter. I can recommend my cooking discovery of this spring – a salad made of cooked green asparagus, young spinach, tomatoes, olives and for the more hungry with eggs and well fried bacon. You add dressing made of olive oil, mustard, aceto balsamico and a lot of lemon juice. Delicious!


Żegnamy się niestety na cały rok już z konwaliami, nie mówiąc o bzie…

Unfortunately we must say good bye for the whole year to the lilies of the valley, not even mentioning about lilac…



Przed nami za to lato pełne przygód:)
A summer full of adventures is awaiting us!;)


Tajemnicze zakątki, prawie jak w Puszczy Amazońskiej...
Mysterious places, almost like in the Amazonian Forrest...



I nowe szlaki do przetarcia.
New paths to be discovered.

Widoczki jak z impresjonistów.
Views like from impressionist pictures.


No i kontakt z naturą, który przyda się takim mieszczuchom jak my!
And finally an access to nature which is essentials for such townies like we are!


Wspaniałych ostatnich dni wiosny życzę!
Wonderful last days of spring to you all!

The swans on the lake are so beautiful and it must have been nice spending the time out on the lake.

Did you and your husband get a new boat? Awesome for you! Love these photos -- the water does open up so many possibilities. :)

darlin pisze...

Ola I enjoyed your photos, you are blessed with beautiful scenery and the birds are so pretty. I love your first photo of the swan!

I've already started a grocery list, the salad is a "must try" recipe. Thank you for sharing it with us. I like to eat very light in the summer as well. Unfortunately we're supposed to dip down to zero tonight. I don't like that one bit, I'm at the farm and my flowers might freeze. I sure hope not.

Enjoy your weekend!

A very nice post.
Spring and summer - of course it's nature, water and sun!

Ta szparagowa sałatka i te widoki są wspaniałe. Wiosna w pełni. Tęskno mi za rejsami po jeziorach, ale już niedługo... Pozdrawiam.

Ola pisze...

Darlin I hope it will not be that cold!
Io, z tymi szparagami to wpadłam w panikę po jednym z Twoich ostatnich postów, że to już koniec tematu, więc teraz u mnie szparagi prawie non stop w różnych wariacjach:)

The swans do look like they'd be fun to just sit and watch.

Prawda, że wiosna to dobry czas, aby cieszyć się życiem i jego drobnych przyjemności, i zobaczyć, co tam się podoba, morza, słońca, łabędzie, ryby, krok po łodzi, jezioro, dobre jedzenie ... qiue chcieć więcej.
Aby nadal cieszyć się i pozdrowienia .-
