We are cooking spring-themed food and living life in the marina. But above all, we are preparing for the spring and summer motorhome trip. Now we are really looking forward to leaving!

New job situation
Our job situation has changed and I (Helena) no longer work full or part time as a public health scientist. There may be some remote projects, such as training or analysing interviews, later this year. Otherwise, we do completely different things. We work with freedomtravel.se and also write articles for magazine on Housecar.se. Let's see what the future holds!
Good food with a spring theme
We had a lot of lobster in the freezer and were tired of making lobster soup. We fatThis is indeed a luxury concern. But what to do? Peter decided to make a sandwich cake with lobster and prawns. Wow, so good!
The next day it was instead a salad with prawns and lobster. No, it was not bad in any way.
After this, we have run out of lobster in our stocks, and we have instead inspired by Cyprus and started making Greek-inspired dinners with chicken, bread, Greek salad, and different kinds of mixes. So simple and so good!
Life in the marina
Life in the marina is always varied, and right now a lot is happening outside our windows. Yesterday, for example, we got new ladders everywhere, including next to the... our houseboat. There are also some things we need to do ourselves soon, but we will come back to that.
Best this week
Best this week? We have given a lecture, conducted an interview and generally worked hard. It feels good! We've also had several days of spring weather, and we've taken our bikes out for the first time in a long time. What has been the best part of your week?
The week ahead
In the week to come, we plan to prepare even more for the spring and summer motorhome holidays. We will fix the houseboat, finish some business and pick up the motorhome from winter storage. Don't miss out!
Did you miss the last Happy Friday? Read the Events, spring feelings and ... nothing.

Oh... it looked super tasty all the food! I go a little on low calories today ...
Here we have also started eating more Mediterranean food. Greek salad with tzatziki is really good! Souvlaki..etc... But today it's chicken with spinach and feta cheese. Not completely wrong either.
The best part of the week is excursions and visiting the cranes and having coffee in the spring sun. By the way, what you get home blind and go in old tracks: We usually go to Trandansen a couple of times every spring and bring a picnic basket. We have seen that there is a café behind the church but have never been there. What we missed!!! An old house from 1770 with a schoolroom at the bottom. Upstairs a café with home baking and seats overlooking the cranes. So good, cheap and nice!
Happy Friday!

Chicken with spinach and feta cheese sounds great! I love spinach, but we don't cook it very often ... we should! 🙂 And what fun that you found that cosy café!!! 🙂
