assorted vitamins from Hötorget

Here's a young artist at work. A fruit basket is being composed at Hötorget ("the Haymarket").

Halcyon said...: There's nothing better than a fruit basket! My husband always arranges our fruit purchases on the table. He's more artistic than I am. :); 12 May, 2009 15:18
Lowell said...: Yummy! I'm assuming he's working there, putting this together as an enticement to buy more?; 12 May, 2009 15:30
stromsjo said...: Looks tasty, doesn't it?

Vogon Poet: Thanks. It was too colorful a motif to resist.

cieldequimper: Probably not. I like strawberries but I don't remember finding them in local fruit baskets.

Halcyon: Must be great to have such artistry available for your domestic fruit consumption! I'm also more of a consumer with limited artistic ambitions...

Jacob: Yes, I'm sure he's working there but my guess is that he's preparing a delivery to a local office. Then again, that could also be regarded as an enticement to buy more - when the employees leave their office and just by accident pass Hötorget on their way home...

Thanks for pausing to admire our vitamins!; 12 May, 2009 18:58

Lena Möre said...: Härliga frukter och fruktfärger. Jag har inte låtit mig skrämmas av knasiga fruktskriverier senaste tiden, jag tror att frukt är väldigt hälsosamt att äta!; 12 May, 2009 22:24

stromsjo said...: I suppose most of the stuff on sale here is imported. So what's good to eat hasn't necessarily been good for the planet in terms of transportation.

Tinsie: That's an interesting thought. I wonder whether folks in this particular business are more interested in the aesthetics of their workplace. A feast for the eyes, most of the time.

Lena Johansson: Jag tror nog också frukt är nyttigt i rimliga proportioner. Bäst såklart från egen odling så har man lite koll på vilka "tillsatser" de utsatts för.

Steffe: I missed that news story. There's probably a history behind it but it does sound strange.

Thanks all!; 15 May, 2009 18:45
