A lady in Sweden has located her wedding ring on a carrot in her own backyard after it had been misplaced for sixteen years.
Lena Paahlsson had lost the ring in 1995 after putting it on her kitchen area draining board to do some cooking. When she returned to get it she noticed it had been gone and despite turning the kitchen upside-down no one could find it. Sixteen years after and Lena was digging up vegetables in her own garden when she found a gold ring around one of the carrots – it’s her ring, it must have made its way in to the garden compost pile then to the veggie garden where a carrot had grown exactly in the middle of it.
Lena Paahlsson had long ago lost hope of finding the ring, which she designed herself, reports Dagens Nyheter.
The white-gold band, set with seven small diamonds, went missing in her kitchen in 1995, she told the paper.
Although the ring no longer fits, she hopes to have it enlarged so she can wear it again.
Mrs Paahlsson and her family live on a farm near Mora in central Sweden.
