Adam made a lovely breakfast. Sweet husband💖 

  I made a chicken veggie stir fry with zucchini, yellow and red bell peppers, onions, asparagus, garlic, and ginger all stir fried with sambal and soy sauce. I served it with jasmin rice and topped it all with cilantro and a squeeze of lime. Mmmm… 

When in Sweden… 🇸🇪 

We couldn’t resist. We went back for more flavorful Mexican food😋 

Since we were enjoying a monument to Swedish culture, Skansen, we decided to partake in a Swedish custom: fika. Fika is a Swedish verb meaning “to drink coffee and eat a bun”. Swedes will often fika 3-4 times a day. How are they all so thin?  

We made it to Kungliga Djurgården! Just before the gates into Skansen, we decided to stop for a picnic😀 

We took a ferry to Kungliga Djurgården. An island in central Stockholm that used to be the Kings hunting grounds. Now, it’s a cultural playground- museums, galleries, historical buildings, monuments, gardens, and even an amusement park. We’re headed to Skansen, the oldest open-air folk museum in the world!   

We stopped at a bakery yesterday called Bread and Salt- love it! The sweet counter girl told us this is her favorite bread- whole grain rye and wheat blend with TONS of walnuts topped with syrup and salt. Good call! The bread is earthy and just a little sweet and salty. Perfect for breakfast!  

After a light lunch, we were HUNGRY! We stopped at a highly rated Lebanese restaurant near Gamla Stan, the old town. What a great choice! We had SO much food and it was all delicious! Hummus, babaganoush, roasted red pepper and walnut spread, falafel, fried cheese sticks, stuffed eggplant, garlic-lemon chicken wings, fried spinach pies, fried minced meat pies, fattoush, beet salad, tsatziki, chicken tahini salad, Lebanese style pickles, marinated artichoke hearts, olives, hallumi with roasted tomato, and pita. Wowza!!!!
