This post will be a bit of a mish mash.
First up: Pancakes.
http://www.pannkakor.se/pannkaksrecept
YUM. Some crepe-like Swedish pancakes for breakfast, with fresh whipped cream and strawberry jam.
Somewhat common recipe (makes 8 pannkakor):
2.5 dl flour (1 cup)
1/2 tsp salt
3 dl milk (about 1 1/4 cup)
Mix until smooth.
Add another 3 dl milk, 3 eggs, and 2 tsp melted butter, and whisk. Let sit for 30 minutes (or don't).
Fry in a pan and eat. Preferably on Thursdays, and with pea soup.
Next: random picture from the internet. This is a series of 'comics' which makes fun of the naming differences in major european languages... I like this one.
Next: interview.
This is the beautiful 'small food room' (lunchroom?) where I had my interview for Short Cut. It was incredibly challenging to have a 25 minute interview entirely in broken Swedish... but apparently I did OK. Accepted!
Completely empty streets. Why? Because it's 3:30am and nobody is up, of course. A shot of the path by the graveyard when I got off work this past Tuesday.
These two pictures come from a Sexa, which is like a nation staff party. They have one a month or so, and it's partly to use up leftover food and alcohol, partly for the staff to get to know each other!
