Spring Fresh

No time for Wednesday recipe today as I was busy sewing and putting up new curtains in the kitchen/dining room. I haven't really gotten used to them yet but I like the pattern a lot so it should feel like home again soon! Recipes was still an ingredient in my evening however as we've been planning what hors d'ouvres to serve at our Walpurgis Eve (slash Peter's birthday) party tomorrow. More on that later!

Blossom

The Japanese cherry trees are finally in bloom in Stockholm!

We Meet Again

Ran into the well-behaved dogs again our my way to lunch. They were soaking sun by the water front but it didn't look like any of them were hot enough to jump in.

Dog Meet

Time for another mobile post! Around where I work and live there are lots of daycares for dogs. I'm always amazed how disciplined they are! Each dog carer usually have 5-10 dogs on a lead and when they stop to rest in the sunshine like in the picture the dogs are so well-behaved and harmonious. But when their owners pick them up - believe me I've seen it - it's like they are completely different dogs! Like kids in pre-school vs home! :-)

Spring "Fika"

Yesterday I met a friend at Mälarpaviljongen and we sat in the sunshine with our coffees. It was nice but a stark contrast to last weekend's 20 degree temperatures. I think you can see that from our clothes! (This is my first attempt to blog from my mobile phone and looks like it's working!)

Fika is a Swedish word for having a coffee/cup of tea and cake/cookies/bisquits. Also a verb, as in "to fika". Great word.
