Yesterday was All Saints' Day and we visited the cemetery with my (Helena's) family, and then enjoyed a game menu at Skänkstugan in Täby. So today we will take some food pictures, and at the same time we will (unexpectedly) immerse ourselves in chemical elements. Or well, we'll stay pretty superficial to the subject ...

Has anyone noticed that Peter is interested in cooking? A reader wrote on Facebook that we should rename our blog to FREEDOMfood. Haha, why not? Or at least temporarily... Travelling is our biggest interest, but now that we're travelling less, Peter is living out his cooking interest. Today we present the best recipes of the week and this weekend we're going on a "weekend trip".
Read moreBy the time you read this, we have already organised our 6-course banquet. However, as I write - we still have it ahead of us. On Saturday evening we have invited Peter's brother Micke and his wife Nilla and our friends Lennart and Beata. Peter has planned a six-course dinner, accompanied by various drinks. Here's a description of the dishes and preparations - we'll report on how it went later!
Read moreCan you really cook fish for dinner seven days a week? Peter offers me fantastic dinners every day, and right now it's pretty much all fish. We really love fish and it is a raw material that can be varied endlessly. Today we are simply offering photos and inspiration for more fish dinners. Do you usually cook fish, and if so, what kind of dishes?
Read moreLast Saturday we enjoyed a seafood buffet at the Grand Hotel in Stockholm, together with Peter's son Robin, his wife Alexandra and their friends Robin and Elin. It has long been a "tradition" for us to visit the Grand's seafood buffet every other year or so, and some of the family always book a bunch of tickets for the following year.
Read moreWant to try a really good brunch in Stockholm? Then we can recommend restaurant K4 in Pampas marina in Solna. As you may know, we live in a houseboat here. There is a restaurant down here in the marina and last spring it got new owners. We have long thought that we would visit the new restaurant, but it has not happened until Sunday, when the restaurant invited us residents to brunch. Wow, we just say! If you want high quality brunch in an idyllic setting - then you should definitely come here!
Read moreHow do you actually eat crab? It's seafood season and we eat seafood every chance we get. If you've been following our blog for a while, you'll know that crab is a particular favourite of ours. We've actually written about how to eat crab once before, but now Peter has also made a film. It is not an entertainment film for a rainy evening, but simply an instructional film for those who want to know how to eat crab.
Read moreYesterday we tried sushi on a conveyor belt in the Mall of Scandinavia in Solna. Or rather, Peter has actually tried it before, but this time he took me with him. We were going to shop for some clothes for once and at the same time we thought we would take the opportunity to eat sushi - on a conveyor belt. Really fun, I must say. And yes, good too!
Read moreWe're back in Sweden, but now we have to tell you about the cheese and dish raclette in Switzerland! Before we travelled to Switzerland, I had a rather vague idea of raclette. I knew it involved melted cheese and some kind of side dish, but you can't just eat cheese for dinner, can you? Or can you ... ? We have now had raclette twice - once in the traditional way and once with a raclette iron on the table. Now we know a bit more what it's all about.
Read moreIt's that time again and the weeks go by so incredibly fast. We have heat and I am very happy about it. The week has been up and down. I have picked up the motorhome in Kristinehamn with lots of errors and I am deeply angry, but we will take it on Tuesday with film and photos.
