T H E K I N D O F H A P P I N E S S

When there’s Kalix löjrom left in the fridge after Easter weekend.

Sienna said waffles. Out came the iron, and the batter got whisked together with a handful of grated @svedjanost. A dollop of sour cream, a spoonful of roe, finely chopped dill and chives. A lemon wedge on the side.

T A C K , P Å S K .

You weren’t quite what we had in mind, but you still brought many wonderful moments. Sienna’s green foil egg from the loppis in Ryssa – the one she just had to bring home – her drawing from that summer, and time together. That’s all I needed.

Butter-fried polar bread. Västerbottensost mayonnaise. A crisp salad, citrus-pickled cucumber, an egg just so.

Easter didn’t turn out as planned. We were meant to go away, but Sienna came down with a fever and a cough.

Spring dinner. Smoked shrimp, labneh, aioli, tomatoes and olives, and thick slices of bread. Nothing fancy, everything good.

Solbullar – custard-filled sun buns – and the way we Easter.
Birch branches in a jar, vanilla custard in the forest, and the light slowly returning.

Wishing you a soft and peaceful Easter!
