Last time we were in Sweden, I took this photo from the train as we sped home from Mora in Dalarna to Stockholm and then to O'Hare. Since we do not get this form of hoarfrost (rimfrost) in Chicago, I have endless photos. The trees were especially captivating as the mist off Lake Siljan froze in their branches.
As far as Swedes and ice cream, temperature doesn't matter. Apparently, as long as the sun is out, eat away! Here it is served with Hjortron (pronounced: You-tron) aka cloudberries (Rhubus chamaemorus), a raspberry cousin, but much more complex in flavor. You can buy it heavily sweetened in jam at Ikea. But it is best when originally fresh and hand-picked by relatives as below.
