My husband and I wanted something special for brunch the other day and I made Eggs Benedict. This is something I normally order in restaurants but not often make at home. But it's so delicious and now I will definitely do it more often. This time I made Eggs Benedict with salmon and avocado which [...]
Today we have really nice and warm Spring weather in Florida (read Swedish Summer weather) which made me bake a typical Swedish Summer dessert - "Smulpaj" which can be translated as crumble pie. But it's not so heavy as an American dessert pie. The crumbles are made from oat, flour, sugar and butter which is [...]

I know this is not a Scandinavian dish, but let me tell you HOW big tacos, tortillas, or yes you name it, is in Scandinavia. In Sweden we call this dish "Friday cosiness". That means, each and every family with kids eat tacos on Friday (ok, not every family). In Norway, it's the same thing, [...]
When I was a child, my bigger sister and I used to fight about who should prepare the Spaghetti Bolognese for dinner. She thought she made the best Bolognese and I thought I did the best one. My sister makes really good Bolognese, but today I don't think she would refuse my Bolognese. 🙂 Even [...]
