Thanksgiving

I know, we don't celebrate Thanksgiving in Sweden but my American family does so I send them extra thoughts on this day. Happy Thanksgiving to you all! Also to Lisa who is celebrating her first Thanksgivin in Washington. I hope you have a wonderful time and of course that you will find everything you wanted on the big sale.

Here the snow has almost melted away already. We have had over 7C today. Isn't it a strange world we are living in?

Nothing much happened today just an ordinary day with work and meetings.

Do you want another recipe? OK here's dinner we had today:

Smoked pork chop with bacon and tomatoes

500 g smoked pork chop
1/2 leek
70 g bacon
3 tomatoes
black pepper
oregano
3 dl cream
1 tablespoon tamari soy
0,5 dl creme fraiche

Peel the smoked pork chop and cut in thin slices. Slice the leek and the bacon.
Place the smoked pork chop in a ovenproved pan. Put the leek and sliced tomatoed on top.
Season with oregano. On top of that place the sliced bacon.
Stir cream, tamari soy and creme fraiche and pour it over the meat.
Season it off with a little black pepper.
Put in 225C oven for about 25 minutes.
Serve with pasta, potatoe or rice. We served with pasta.

See you tomorrow :-)

Oh my God

The Christmas smorgasbord I just realized I haven't written anything since November 23! But I can tell you I haven't been lazy but there has been so much going on that I haven't had the strength to write. I had meetings that week and I was supposed to be at a conference hotel for lunch that Friday but I was to tired I had to cancel it. So instead I baked safron buns (!) and made chocolate troufles with ginger.  The ferry On December 1 it was Staffan's birthday (Hasse's oldest son) and I worked and worked at my job. Thursday I and Hasse were supposed to go to the theatre and see Come again Charlie, which was one of my birthday presents - thank you Pär and Brita. But Hasse wasn't feeling well so instead I asked Linnea, my bonus grand daughter if she wanted to go and she was very happy that I asked. We had a really good time and the play, which was a comedy, was funny but also with a message which made you laugh and then stop. It was about the si...

Anyone??

I wonder if anyone can see and read my blogg? I haven't had any comments in so long that's why I ask. Erik didn't win a Grammy last night but he had a blast and he and his fiancé looked just great! Another Swede, Ludwig Göransson, won 3 prices though. Congrats to him.

Sad day

Tonight Olle, my adoptive father that has been like my father almost all my life, died just before 9PM. It was very quick. I talked to the nurse at 6PM and everything was calm then. Just a bit over 2 hours later she called and said he's gotten worse. I asked how and she said his skin changed colour and that he could have 10 minutes or 10 hours left. I was just trying to get to my sister on the phone and ask her if we should go down when the phone rang again just 15 minutes afterwards and it was the nurse telling me that it was over. He went very peacefully and in his sleep. At the end he was given a lot of morphine so he wouldn't be in pain, which he wasn't. I called my sister but we both felt that we already had said our goodbyes and therefore didn't go down to say a last goodbye. He is probably up there somewhere looking down and sensing our feelings. We haven't been able to reach our mother yet and we probably won't tonight so I will tell her when I go there ...
