Swedish Rememberances

Blog posts from USA

In Spanish, the word for souvenir (the French word for the same concept) is “recuerdo” which in English is “remembrance”.  Brenda and I bought several remembrances.  I think this might be revealing.

• Just this morning I was using a “coffee” spoon Brenda bought in Ostersund.  What a nice remembrance!
• The other day I sharpened a Swedish knife I bought from the Loppis.
• Brenda has been giving away the little carved wooden butter spreaders she bought in Ostersund.
• The other day I sharpened a Swedish knife I bought from the Loppis.
• Brenda bought the grandkids, one of whom loves hats, some neat hats from Sweden.
