Since I'm on vacation at the moment and moving around a lot it's hard to keep up with blogging.
 Me and Pär our friend and also father to one in H.E.A.T
Hasse and Brita (Pär's wife and accordingly mother to a member of H.E.AT

Since last I and Hasse have been visiting good friends in Söderbärke, Dalarna and after that we went to "our hotel" for a 3-day stay which was very nice.

 As usual lots of cruising ships in Stockholm this time of the year.
Then I took off to Malmö to visit my Mom's cousin who is 84 and very vital. We always have so much fun togheter and this time I cooked for her which I promised I would do.

I made cold avocado soup with shrimps to start with. Then a cod with wine sauce and dillboiled potatoes and salat. For dessert I made a very good dish which was lemon curd/mascarpone cheese/nat. yoghurt that I wisked together and topped with strawberries, rasperries and chocolate. It all went down nicely with a good Chablis.

Now I'm home for a couple of days but tomorrow I will go in to work to see if there are any letters that need attending to.

Thursday is hair-do day and then on Saturday we are off on our cruise around the Baltic sea with Royal Caribbean cruise lines - Vision of the sea.

I'll write again when I can. Until then - Take care!

What about H.E.A.T then you might ask yourselves? Well, they are on the road a lot and doing a great job. From Arjeplog in the very north of Sweden to Trollhättan, Borlänge, Sweden Rock and more.

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 ...
