My breakfast


I got an e-mail last night asking me to blog about my breakfast - so here you go! :)

This is, with some variations, what I eat on most weekdays. Two open-faced sandwiches - today a very coarse rye bread with liver paté and tomatoes, but more often with cheese - alongside coffee and a glass of fizzy vitamin-C. And a bowl of fruit - raspberries, kiwi and passion fruit.

On weekends, we usually get freshly baked bread (or in a pinch, use bake-up baguettes from the grocery store), add boiled eggs and sometimes juice. And sometimes we go for a more American approach and make pancakes and bacon. Sometimes scones. It doesn't really matter, but I really insist on fancier breakfasts during the weekend (and holidays)!

So, there you have it. A lot of Swedes also eat filmjolk (cultured sour milk) or yogurt, or porridge. I do it very rarely myself.

Those tomatoes look very fresh and delicious. I also wish I could get filmjolk here.

Puglette - it's storebought and *very* light on the liver :) I'd never eat regular liver, really don't care for the flavor, but this is very mild. I like it with tomaoes - when I have cheese sandwiches, I prefer cucumber, or no veggies at all. :)

oh! Breakfast GRANDEUR!
Is that home-made coffee? Makes it all the more healthy :)

Nice, healthy breakfast...
I usually don't have appetite in the morning so only have coffee with our without some biscuit. And then hour or two later I have something proper, often Weetabix with some fruits and nuts on the top, or wholegrain bread topped with cream cheese, tomato and lots of cracked pepper.
