Now we have been jogging every weekday morning for two weeks. There is a small chance that we will be able to keep up this good habit, or what do you think? We have also cooked delicious autumn dinners and tried to sell old LP records. Happy Friday!

New routine: morning jog
Our new routine, since two weeks ago, is to jog on weekday mornings. We set the clock to 06:00, share today's post on Facebook, eat some yoghurt with sliced banana and go for a jog.
We recently bought thin windbreakers and now I (Helena) have also bought a vest to wear underneath if it's cold. So Nice! Some people we meet on the jogging tour are running in shorts (!), but we guess they have better fitness and can keep a higher pace all the way. We occasionally have to walk to catch our breath, so it's nice not to be dressed too cold. The hydration belt? Yes, it's because I get so thirsty when I run. I really can't run without water.
We jog in Karlberg Castle Park, which is located just behind Karlberg Castle. The park is very nice and there are surprisingly few people here, although some find their way here to jog or walk the dog. It's quite nice that there are so few people so we have said that maybe we should not tip, but now I happened to do it, haha.
Tasty autumn dinners
You can't just exercise, you have to eat as well. Peter has cooked some really good and autumnal fish dinners lately. Salmon with baked root vegetables, for example, fantastic! He bakes potatoes, carrots, parsnips, onions and small whole garlic. Half Brussels sprouts fried in oil and sea salt with it, yummy!
Another favourite is salmon steaks. How delicious! We usually serve these with jacket potatoes, broccoli and some aioli.
Going around town to sell LP records
You may remember our nostalgia trip with old discs, books and comics? We live in a limited space, so saving everything is impossible. Yesterday we went on a tour of the city with the electric bikes to see if the city's record and coin shops were interested in what we had to offer.
Well, you could say that. Two record shops chose to buy about 5 discs each, and a coin shop bought the coins. We got a few hundred dollars, but if we look at all the hours we spent collecting, carrying, sorting, looking for shops, carrying again and cycling around the city, it was a very sad hourly wage. Men we know we're not throwing away anything valuable and hopefully someone will be happy. Happy Friday!
Best this week
The best part of this week is that we are doing our morning jog, and that we are clearing out all the stuff that fills up our home. We have also started to fix the motorhome, we will tell you more about that soon! What has been the best part of your week?
The week ahead
In the coming week, we have several exciting meetings regarding interesting collaborations. We will also try to tell you about a fantastic place we visited in the Czech Republic that we haven't told anyone about yet. Don't miss it!

I have a large bunch of LP records in the basement, what kind of records are the dealers interested in? I play some from time to time - there is something special about the sound of an LP.
Do you remember "stop groggy jogging"?
All good!

They were mostly interested in rock, older rock. Not everything though, so not easy to know... Then the condition must be good too, both the disc and the case.

Good on you for keeping up the jogging! Personally, I continue to make do with walks.
The food looked fantastic 🙂
Best of the week was the 8th mini trip since midsummer. A mini-mini-trip of only three nights, but absolutely fantastic 🙂.
Have a great start to the weekend!

Bravo!!! Just keep going!!! The best thing this week was that I managed to finish sewing a birthday present for the granddaughter in the Canary Islands! Worst was that it does not work to send there now due to corona and transport problems ... typical! But it will arrive eventually! Otherwise we have it good here! Happy weekend!?

Lovely with the morning jog! Sounds nice with such a start in the morning and the few times a year that I do it, I feel really alert when I then sit down and work. If you have managed 14 days, you can manage a month as well, then the routine sits! Fun! 🙂

Well done with your jogging! Here, the best part of the week has been the wonderful autumn weather that provided opportunities for lovely rounds of golf and walks. What lovely fish meals. We also try to eat healthy and good, so there is also a lot of fish! Now we are cutting new carpets for the motorhome (so it feels like we have no employment problems for a few days...). Have a good weekend!

How good you are with your morning runs. Running in shorts is just ridiculous when the temperature is five to eight degrees plus, no matter how fit you are.
You look really professional in your outfit. The picture of Karlsberg Castle with the reflections is outstanding.

Lovely with a morning jog! I also start most mornings with some type of exercise, the best! Once you get into it, then you are stuck./ P
