The cottage itself is facinating, it has survived for so many years. It is remarkably similar to other Danderyd houses that are just 100-years-old. There were at least two couples having tea and cake in one of the two rooms and the other was set up for the market, with the stove fire roaring.

Today we checked out the Easter market at the 350-year-old Båtsmanstorp, a lovely tiny little cottage (torp) right by the north E18 junction for Djursholm and Enebyberg. The market was just two tables of lovely Easter things, so we bought a ceramic chicken and chatted with Berit Nordahl, who runs the cottage and who was in period costume.

Today we checked out the new Plantagen garden centre at Enebyängen and got some lovely purple cut tulips for 20kr. A spacious, light, bright, airy space, the store feels purpose-built, like a giant green house with opening roof panels. It is rather an improvement on both the Mörby and Frescati sites. Frescati remains the largest store selling outdoor furniture etc. and the three stores are operating together. The selection at the moment contains most house plants, decorative accessories (some very pretty things) and lots of seeds and their related equipment. Now, we just need the snow to go and spring to start so we can start planting things. |
