Hi folks, I thought I'd share a great ocean pie recipe (because that sounds so much better than "fish pie") with you today, despite my wife saying that if I did post the pie photos then I'd lose all my readers.

I’m starting off the new year in a new country with a new way of life… what’s going to happen in 2014? I’ll have to wait and see! I hope at least that I’ll be able to share some photos of our New Year’s Eve celebration with you in my next post. The good news is that my parents were not disappointed...| Home Sweet Sweden
