A DAY WITH THE TRIO. AN INTERVIEW WITH LE GRACE.

By Sheree Ann Kratmann Indiongco

Welcome Spring!

As we welcome the spring season, we also open doors for new ideas, plan our projects, and set our goals for the year. As I celebrate my 10th year anniversary in Denmark (d. 9. 4. 2025), I recall the things that gives me motivation. It is to pursue the projects I have been curating in my mind. I realized that I can define my own success. Who I share my life with is the most important thing and who I celebrate my accomplishments with is another story. At the end of the day, you are your own best audience, you are the same person who says to yourself that you have done something beautiful today and the rest is history. As the African proverbs say  -If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together. 

Some things never get old.

Side A and B. Up to 150-minutes worth of your favorite songs.

– Cassette Tape

It was that song you played more than a 100 times on YouTube or from your Spotify account. It was actually the only music in your playlist. Or probably from that cassette tape you had in the 90’s, where you recorded the song from the radio. It played continuously for an hour. Epic. Just one song. And you say that the original version is better than the cover sung by another artist. Was it really the voice of the artist in the song, the melody, the lyrics or something else?

“THE MUSIC IS NOT IN THE NOTES, BUT THE SILENCE IN BETWEEN.” -Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

My Life in a song. An interview with Le Grace

Having the opportunity to connect with people is a gift I would not take for granted. The truth about building relationships is something we can thank ourselves for. I had the pleasure of having Anette Lee Karup (also known as Le Grace), who is a singer, composer and songwriter, whose songs are inspired by her love for music and by having a free and playful personality. Her song Crazy in love has been played on the Danish radio (DR LYD).

Some of her famous songs are Crazy in Love, Heartbeat, Colorado, and Summer Night. She discovered her passion for writing songs for music at an early age. She pursued her education and career as a musician and a music teacher for children and young people. Today, she performs at cafés and different events all year round. Together with Michael Eigtved as the pianist and Jens Lauritzen on bass, they bring a lively atmosphere to their audience.

Anette finds joy in nature; she loves the sounds of hummingbirds, flowing water, and the gentle breeze. The melodies always come easily to her, for which she is very grateful.

Living the Passion for what I Love to do

Writing has always been a part of my childhood. There were no fancy toys to play with and watching TV was time-based. Radio was the only appliance allowed to be turned on for (long hours). It was both AM and FM radio that my grandmother listened to. Love songs and radio drama series were played. There was even a time when me and my cousin Michelle called the local radio station GVFM and requested a love song. It must have been one of those songs from the popular Boy bands in the 90’s. We patiently waited for the song to be played by the DJ, before our elderly would come and change the channel.

In high school, writing poems and short stories started. I was very shy in some ways, but socially competent in many ways. My classmates and friends had the pleasure of reading my fictional stories written first-hand in between my notebooks. 

I’m looking forward to connecting better with you.

Sincerely,

Sheree

Memories of the ocean:
Beautifully hand-painted by Roksana Gabrielova

The round and smooth hand-painted stones from the ocean bring joy and spark motivation to anyone who looks at them.


Sunset Memories
-Sheree Ann Kratmann Indiongco

To find a place
Where we could talk
You held my hands
And we start to walk

I looked around
You weren’t there
I must have been blinded
This dream, I must spare

Golden rays like a subtle touch
Memories keep coming back
To you I care this much
With hope, this must be good luck





In the spring of 2024, I met Roksana. We were colleagues for a short while at a clothing store in Ringsted. She is a kind-hearted person who has a deep connection with the world, in which she expresses her thoughts through art. Today, we’ll learn about her artworks, how she started, and why being kind to others, ourselves and our environment is important.

“I had a period in my life where I started painting on stones because I was in the Canary Islands for some time and I got inspired by seeing these nice rocks on the beach, all rounded and smooth, so I started to paint on them, a thousand of them until it almost became a full-time job 🙂 “. -Roksana Gabrielova

Hardwork, Commitment and Patience

Water is older than the planet and we are also water, so we carry the history and wisdom of the universe.” -Roksana

 

Commitment. The people I encounter are particularly well-versed in what they do and they embrace their talents and imperfections. They try their best to understand that the process of achieving something beautiful requires a sense of commitment.

Hvordan beskriver I en God Kvalitet Honning?


-Vivi og Henrik, Biavlere

Tips fra Biavlerne

Vivi: Alle må være biavlere, og bierne skal registreres i det centralt bigårdsregistreret CBR.

Biavlere logo

Man skal vælge en rolig bifamilie og det er en god idé at snakke med naboerne først. Man skal sikre at der er nok mad til bierne, altså at der er nektar og pollen nok i området i en omkreds af 500 meter fra april til september. Man kan også søge på internet om hvilke træer, buske og blomster der giver mest til bierne.

Det er en god idé at være flere om at dele en bifamilie i fx en kolonihave eller i et parcelhuskvarter. Bierne skal tilses en gang om ugen i højsæsonen og derfor er det fint at have andre som kan tage over når man skal på ferie. Vidensdeling, erfaring og mod er påkrævet, men det er også meget spændende at have bier og følge med i biernes levevis.

Vivi: Vil man gerne vil have bier i sin have, skal man gå på biskole via Danmarks biavlerforening og købe rolige bier hos en professionel. Honningbier er små dyr der skal passes og det kræver en masse viden. Det er ret omkostningstung at starte sin egen honningproduktions op. Det løber hurtigt op i kr. 10.000 (startpakke, bier, slynge, kursus) og der til kommer at man ind i mellem må købe en ny dronning eller en hel ny familie. Bierne kan blive syge og nogle gange dør de i løbet af vinteren. Man skal være opmærksom at når man vælger stadetype og rammemål låser man sig fast på det og kan nemmest købe bier fra andre som har samme mål. Man skal også have opmagasineringsplads til udstyr. Kig efter hvor kan man købe udstyr som voksplader og aflevere rammer til afvoksning.

Vivi: Ja vi vil gerne plante flere frugtbuske og træer. Vi har allerede tænkt over at der skal være nektar i hele sæsonen ved at plante fx frugttræer, pil og mælkebøtter til om foråret og fx kløver til sidst på sæsonen. Fordi vi ikke sprøjter har vi mange skvadderkål, tidsler og brændenælder, som både bier, sommerfugle og andre insekter søger føde i. Når vi heller ikke klipper græsset så tit, kommer der helt naturligt flere vilde blomster. Husk at det som vi ser som ukrudt faktisk er fødekilde for de insekterne.

Vivi: At honningen ikke er at blandingsprodukt fra mange lokaliteter, da hver egn har en forskellig sammensætning af træer og blomster. Vi synes at man heller ikke skal blande forårs og sensommerhonning sammen, forbi det bare er to forskellige slags honning, der gør det godt hver for sig.

Kvalitet er også at honningen varierer i smag og konsistens fra sted til sted.

Det er lidt som vin, hvor god kvalitetsvin er fremstillet på den enkelte gård med de druer som gården dyrker.

Vivi: Man kan starte med at låne en bog om biavl på biblioteket.
