He vore lite blogging på me i det siste og en av grunnane til det e at Apple maskina mi har møtt veggen "eller noe i den dur" , den vil iallfall ikke våkne til liv..
Den andre grunnen er at datteren min skal konfirmeres på søndag.
Og jeg har altfor mye å gjøre for tiden, skal lage det meste av maten selv og da blir det vel sånn..
Så nå skal snart dattern min og jeg avgårde og ordne til der vi skal ha konfirmasjonen, imorra blir det den store matlagingsdagen...
Har noen av dere konfirmanter i år, eller har søsken ?
Slenger med noen fine bilder med noen viktige ord;
Jeg elsker å "utforske" sånne gamle hus, litt rart å tenke på at det har bodd folk i noen av de , sånn som denne som ligger veldig avsides og litt ufremkommelig til, kan ikke forstå hvordan de dro til og fra her om vinteren, denne gamle gården ligger nedi en dal (veldig lite sol) Eneste veiene til og fra, er en veldig bratt rås ned til sjøen (ikke for de med høydeskrekk!) Den andre veien er også veldig bratt, og fører opp til en annen rås og du kan gå videre til en bygd.. (Tar en stund)
Nothing as a real "bonfire"

Og her er en av mine yndlingssanger, den er veldig meg ! For å si det sånn..
Easter is over, and here is a little taste of how my house was decorated through easter..
Yellow is not ecsactly my coulor when it comes to decorating, so i also use some other coulors.
And much of the easter-decorations is homemade, by me or mostly by my children :)
Here you are ;
A little "Easter-tree" , * my way *
Some of the pic`s came up "The wrong way", i turned them the right way on my PC. But here on my blog, they turned again, & i don`t know how to fix it . . .
Loads of eggs .. Yeah . .
The Tricetra symbol, my favourite !! <3
And offcourse we went skiing !!
Later i will show you how my home is after all easter-decorations has been "put away" !
IT WASN`T MUCH YOU HAD TO DO (OR NOT DO) TO BE ACCUSED FOR BEING A WITCH IN THE WORST OF THE WITCH-HUNTING YEARS.
IT COULD BE ENOUGH THAT YOU HAD A BRIGHT RED JACKET (RED WAS "THE DEVIL`S COLOUR..)
IF YOU WERE A L ITTLE BIT DIFFERENT THAN THE OTHERS, IF YOU WERE "THE ONE" PEOPLE GOSSIP ABOUT, IF YOUR HAIR WAS RED, IF YOU WERE EXTRAORDINARY PRETTY. AND DEAR YOU, IF YOU USED HERBS FROM NATURE, OR YOU WERE PHSYCIC OR "NEW MORE THAN OTHERS"..!
IF SOMEONES ANIMALS OR RELATIVES BECAME SEEK, THEY STARTED LOOK AFTER "THE GUILTY" ONE, BECAUSE IT HAD TO BE ONE OUT THERE WHO`D CURSED THEM , RIGHT ? . . .
IN ONE PLACE IN SALEM IT WAS SOME GIRLS, 12 & 13 YEARS OLD, THEY STARTED RUMOURS ABOUT ONE LADY, AND PEOPLE BELIEVED THEM, THE GIRLS THOUGHT THIS WAS PRETTY EXITING, AND THEY WENT ON WITH THE RUMORS, ONE LADY WAS ACCUSED FOR BEING A WITCH, THEN ONE MORE, AND ONE MORE . . .
AND THE WHOLE WITCH- HUNT IN THIS PLACE WAS STARTED BY SOME SMALL GIRLS, WHO DID NOT FORESEE HOW BIG THIS WOULD GROW TO BE... MAYBE THEN, THÈY WOULD`VE BEEN THINKING TWICE ABOUT WHAT THEY SAID IN THE FIRST PLACE . . .?? . . HOPEFULLY !
AND ALL THE WITCHES WERE OFFCOURSE "EVIL", THEY COOPERATED WITH THE DEVIL..!
BUT SOMETIMES I WONDER, ARE THE WITCH-HUNTING OVER ? NO ! I WILL SAY, THE RUMOURS GOES, PEOPLE TALKS AND PEOPLE ARE HARASSED AND IS TREATED BAD ALL AROUND US. IF WE COULD GET RID OF ALL PREJUDICES, AND PEOPLE`S FEAR OF "THE UNKNOWN", MAYBE THEN, WE COULD GET RID OF THE "WITCH" HUNTING . . .
SO . . . .
SOME HISTORY ;
From the late 15th century to the late 18th century a wave of persecution washed across parts of Europe. Tens of thousands of people were executed for witchcraft. So what happened ? Belief in magic was almost universal in the past. Almost all cultures believed that you could use supernatural means to help hunting or to make your crops grow better or to make humans or animals more fertile. Magic could also be used to heal the sick. For the great majority of people who lived before the 18th century magic was an ordinary part of everyday life. To them the world was a mysterious and frightening place. They did not know what caused disease and other natural phenomena and so they sometimes assumed there was a supernatural explanation.
However if you could used magic for good to make your crops grow better or to heal the sick then logically you could, if you wished, used magic to harm your enemies. For people who believed in magic the thought that your enemies could use magic to harm you must have been terrifying.
Furthermore most people in the 16th century and 17th century believed that God had an enemy called the Devil, who was very powerful. They believed that witches made a pact or agreement with the Devil and agreed to worship and serve him. Witches then used magic to harm animals or humans. Many people believed that there were 'fifth columnists' who were out to cause harm. To people at the time the thought that your neighbour might secretly be a witch must have been very frightening.
However not everybody believed in witches. Some scholars criticised beliefs about witches. Furthermore in some areas large numbers of people were tried as witches while in others few, if any, were.
Witch trials were most common in Central Europe, in Germany, France, Switzerland and what is now Belgium. Witch trials were somewhat less common in Scotland, Scandinavia and Poland. Executions for witchcraft were much less common in England, Russia and Southern Europe (Italy, Spain and Portugal). Hungary escaped witch trials and executions until the early 18th century. (The Hungarians disbelieved in witchcraft but trials were imposed by the Austrians).
Furthermore the frequency of witch trials varied over time. In Western Europe the first witch hunts (in which large numbers of people were tried and convicted of witchcraft) were held in France and Germany in the 15th century. In the 16th century the witch mania spread to England and Scotland. (Both the English and Scottish parliaments passed laws against witchcraft in 1563). In Western Europe witch trials reached a peak in the late 16th century and early 17th century then declined.
However in Scandinavia the majority of executions for witchcraft took place in the late 17th century, later than in Western Europe. In Poland witch trials reached a peak in the late 17th century and early 18th century, when they were declining in Western Europe. In Hungary people were not executed for witchcraft until the early 18th century when witch trials and executions were imposed by the Austrians.
Furthermore by no means all the people who were tried for witchcraft were convicted. Some were acquitted. Furthermore not everyone convicted of witchcraft was executed. Some people were given lesser punishments such as banishment or imprisonment.
Nobody really knows why witch trials became common when they did. Many theories have been put forward but probably a number of different factors came together at the same time.
Mange har "faste plasser" de reiser til i Påska, som de bare "må" innom.
Jeg vil gjerne høre hvor deres "Påske-plass" er !
For meg er det hytta (til pappa, vi har ikke egen)
Det blir liksom ikke orntli` Påske, uten en tur på hytta .. Da spiller vi kort/ brettspill, hører påskekrim på radio (det er mye mere spennende enn å se påskekrim på tv!)
Også skal jeg på Snøbrett, barna på slalom, også er faren min med, også på slalom. Uansett hvor mye jeg jobber i Påska prøver jeg å få til iallfall 2 netter på hytta (helst 3, men er sjelden det klaffer) Sånn er det når man jobber turnus...
I år ska jeg jobbe Langfredag, kveld, tidlig Påskeaften og kveld 1`ste Påskedag i selve Påskehelgen, men nå har jeg 3 herlige fridager!
Jobber noen av dere i Påska ?
Jeg vil ønske alle mine Blogglesere og andre som måtte være innom en SUPER DUPER GOD PÅSKE !!
