Hi β£Its so nice to see you,- like always πI hope all is fine with you π
I did started this #weekend with a very cozy visit yesterday #evening. I did invite one of my friends here in Spain to some #food and “bobbels” π. She is from #Norway too, but have lived in Spain a couple of more years then me. And I did meet her in Spain as well. We are from to different parts of Norway.
She is, or has been a single mammi for her two children for many years as well, like I have been for mine. Her’s children are also young adult, and moving out from the home little by little,- like mine π.
Its great to speak to someone and have good chats with someone that, in a way, is or have been, in the same living-situation as your self π. At least for me,- I get good advice and good tips and triks,- and I like that π.
On the meny for the evening was #homemade (read – made by me π) #norwegian #cauliflower #soup with #cream, #broccoli and #asparagus, served with bread and homemade #garlicbutter, and some spanish “blue bobbels” to drink, and sprakling water as wellπ.
Im not sure if the cauliflower soup are typical norwegian,- but for me it is π. And I like to make this from closly the scratch with fresh vegetables, cream and some spices π. The best food is normally the homemade one, but its not always time to do the #cooking from scratch during a busy week π.
The fresh vegetables are cooking and “getting” ready for the soup π.
Its a lots of good fresh #fruit and #vegetables here in Spain, cheap to, on the marked, and they are so tasty.
I like to cook and #bake, homemade,- and I like to serve my guestes #homemade food,- often norwegian one,- because thats the food I m best to cook or bake π. And its also a bit “special” to serve the guestes norwegian food because most of us, thst lives here, eat spanish food. Something thats normal,- we live in #Spain and the spanish kitchen its very #tasty π.
I do eat a lots of spanish food. I really like spanish tapas, and also some of the seafood as well. Expect from this tiny sardines they are barbecues during the spring and summer here, often served with a mug of sangeria. The sangeria I drink, its taste fresh and sweet, but the sardines have so many small bones in it, that I have big problems with eat them π. I need to “rinse” them down with a pitcher of sangria. Perhaps that is why sangeria are served to the sardines ? π . Any way,- its one of the summerfavorite dish for the spanish people π.
And I m not the biggets fan of octopus either π¦. Its to many arms “everywhere ” π . Just kidding ,- its just not a “taste” for me π.
Im not the biggets “connoisseur” / “wine-knower” either, or drinker π . I do drink wine, and I do like wine, and the tast of different types of wine,- but I have not any idea what a “good and fine” wine is. I have a bad “hapit” to look at the bottle,- and if the bottle is “cool” in some or another way I do buy it (and yes the price, I dont buy “expensive” wine) π . Like that one I did served yesterday. I did buy it becasue I did like the blue #colour so much π . It looked a bit #cool π.
Its was not a wine by the way, it was a #sparkling #moscato. Im not sure what that is,- probably it is about the different way it was made π.
Im not a shamed to not know to much about wine, as long as it taste good, its fine for me π. This moscato from yesterdays was okay, cool colour, but a bit #sweet for my tast, but a glas to the soup was okay π.
Im not a shamed over that I m not a big wine-or alcohol- drinker either. Its probably one of the reasons why I m not a big “connoisseur” π . And I dont have any interested in being any of this things either ,- a big wine- drinker or a “connoisseur”. I know what I need to know about wine,- at least I think so π .
I know I live in Spain, and I know fine wine of different types and kinds is a part of the food-culture here,- but its not a part of my “culture”,- and its probably never going to be it either π.
Any way,- it was a very #cozy and #relaxing evening yesterday π. It was a very good start on the weekend π. It was great to “chat up” with my friend again, it has been, unfortunately, a while since last time π.
I hope you did have a great start on your weekend too π.
I wish you a great day or evening where ever in the world you are π and thank you so much for reading my blogg and dropping by π.
See you soon π.
The cool blue, a bit sweet, sparkling moscato from yesterday evening π.
