I'm a person that likes to complain. A lot. Indeed, my poor wife likes to mock me because about one out of every five things I say begins with the phrase "Do you know what really annoys me?". Of course the usual response to that is a heavy sigh and an eye-roll, followed by "No darling, but I'm sure you're going to tell me.". What can I say? Some people are perpetually positive, and some people are more "glass half-empty". I'll share my latest gripe with you, dear readers, since I'm sure you'r...| Home Sweet Sweden
Spring is here! Nothing can possible spoil my mood, especially not now that spring salads are on the menu. The air is warmer, the birds are singing, the buds are blooming. It's a whole changing landscape and it's beautiful. The snow is gradually melting away, with now only the very shady, sheltered parts of the landscape still showing the marks of winter. The rivers are still frozen on the edges, but they, along with the sea nearby, are now thawing out for the most part. I can go outside to s...| Home Sweet Sweden
Hi there folks. It seems like absolutely ages since I last made a post. Things sure seem to get away from me these days, but I figured I have a bit of time now, and I had a few recipes ready to roll (four in fact), so why not write up a post? I'll be writing about my artichoke and coriander dip further down, but I'll tell you first that today's going to be a fun day! My wife is out all day... it's me and my son - against the world. Well, we're actually going to meet up with my wife's aunt and...| Home Sweet Sweden
Phew, I've been so busy the last few days! I've been meaning to write this for so long but things have always run away from me. So what I have been up to you may wonder? Well, the bulk of my time has been spent on my freelance web work (shameless plug - if you happen to know anyone looking for some assistance, feel free to give them my details!). Naturally I've been cooking, baking and eating, like these cheese and vegemite scones, although I'll get to those in just a moment, and in amongst a...| Home Sweet Sweden
Oh boy, I had a shock when I saw that it was the 1st of March yesterday. It can't possibly have been that long since I last made a post, can it? My last post was on the 21st of February which means that was... 10 days ago? Then I realised that I was being very silly and February only had 28 days so it's not quite as bad as I'd thought, although my posting has been rather sporadic, as has my visiting everyone else's wonderful blogs whom I follow. My apologies if my drop-ins are rarer than they...| Home Sweet Sweden
The best potato croquettes I ever had were some gloriously creamy things with cheese and ham in the middle. Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside – as a good croquette should be, with cheese oozing out from the centre when you separated them. They were made even better by the fact that the restaurant I was in was exceptionally nice. It was a very fancy-looking place in Tokyo during one of my visits there and the entire place was covered in black marble. The lighting was dim, the voices ...| Home Sweet Sweden
My mind was full of ideas of things I wanted to make and post this weekend. The only problem is, when you're in classes every day, you literally have a window of a weekend for cooking. Add into this mix the fact that it's dark by around 3pm then you need to get the cooking finished on the Saturday and then use Sunday for the photography. In the end I decided to go for something a little easier. It was still something I've never specifically tried before but it was a long time since I added to...| Home Sweet Sweden
I can safely say that these are the best falafel I've ever made, but then I've only ever made them twice and the first time I tried my beautifully crafted falafel disintegrated as soon as they hit the hot oil. After reading A_Boleyn's post here about her falafel adventures I immediately began craving one such sandwich myself - specifically one that they used to serve in a restaurant in the Marais district of Paris. Falafel restaurants in this area are not uncommon... serving up crisp, fluffy,...| Home Sweet Sweden
