Father's Day

Today it was Father's Day here in Sweden and J and E was here to celebrate H. I had actually given him a gift this morning although he isn't my father but he is the father of my children.

After a quiet morning with a looooooooong lovely breakfast I made the bed and then went shopping. We have this role in the house that whenever it's someone's birthday or other day to celebrate they get to choose what we're having to dinner. Tody H of course choose, since it is his favourite food, meatloaf Mia's way with mashed potatoe and carrots.
OK I will give you the recipe:

Mia's meatloaf with mashed potatoes and carrots

1 kg mince meat
1 onion (yellow
)
1 dl dried bread crumbs
1 dl cream
1 dl water
2 dl Vasterbotten cheese
1 egg
salt
pepper


Instructions:
Put 1 dl dried bread crumbs with the cream and water in a big bowl. Stir and let it swell for about 10 minutes
. Add well chopped onion and grated cheese, stir. Then add an egg, salt and pepper. Finally you mix it all together until it's all well blended.
Use cold water on your hands and form a loaf which you then place in a greased ovensafed form. Put 3 thin slices of butter on top of the loaf and add some water just a couple of tablespoons in the bottom
. Let it sit in 225 C for around 1 hour. If it gets too burnt turn the oven down to 200C. Slice and serve with home made mashed potatoes with real butter, warm milk, salt and pepper.
Peal carrots, slice them in coin size and boil them until they are soft in a salted water.
Serve together. Enjoy
!

Nothing to it :-) I hope you will have a good night sleep. I know I will

  1. Is mince meat like ground beef? We have something called minced meat here but it may or may not actually be meat. It's a mystery to me. Anyway, I was just curious!

  2. Yes it's the same. I think it's called mince meat in England and ground beef in USA. In Swedish it's notfars :-)

  4. Can't you print them yourself? I can try to mail them to you if it helps otherwise you do have them here. Maybe I should write a cookbook?

WOW!!! I just have to say Wow!

Why do you ask? I just got a mail telling me that I have won a romantic trip to Paris for 2! I enrolled in this competition, last year, which was to write a slogan and I had forgot all about it when the mail came. I didn't remember it even then so I had to go to the site and see what it was :-) I'm so happy! and so is Hasse :-) We had a great Easter which started with a wonderful ballet, Giselle, at the Royal Opera with my friend Carina. We are going again tomorrow to see Puccinis Turandot :-) The next day Easter Day we went to Gavle and this time we actually stayed at a hotel, Elite Grand hotel. A newly opened hotel, March 1, where we had the executive suite. What a suite! I have to show you some photos. One of the best suites I've ever stayed in!   The suite taken from the "living-room area"  From the "cosy" area with wood burning stove   Our "little" bathroom with green marble Part of the bedroom What do yo...

Christmas gift

For Christmas I got a giftcard to Amazon.com from my sister Jo. It was a real treat to go to the site, explore and find something to buy. There are so many things there and it's hard to choose. For me, leaving in Sweden, it's a bit easier. I just cross the square that says "ships to Sweden" and I get all the things I can order. My choice was Bliss socks and a big bottle of Dermalogica body cream. They came today and I'm so happy. So once again a big thank you big sis for the generous gift.  

BIRTHDAY, H.E.A.T, E.R and more...

Some of the wonderful flowers I got And some more Last week didn't start out well. On Monday I woke up and could hardly walk. I had such pain every step I tried to take. But off to work anyway. Tuesday even worse so I went to the doctor's office and asked to borrow crutches. Wednesday at work jumping on crutches, that must have been a sight ;-) But when I came home from work Wednesday I had fever so I went to bed quite early but didn't sleep well because of the constant pain. Thursday morning I woke up and had fever so I called the hospital and they said I had to go to the E.R. I hate that and if I can I always try to avoid it. But I was in so much pain I had to. I came and after a while they took bloodtests, urine and then I sat in a kind of smallish room. After being there for about 3 hours a doctor came and said I probably should see and orthopedic and not a medicine doctor. After one more hour another doctor came and said my bloodtest showed I had an i...
