So, another week of summer behind us. The last one? It's raining now and the forecast for the coming week isn't so pretty...
Kulterkalaset, the Culture Party (festival) was last week. About the closest thing we have to a county fair, minus the livestock and whole ag-centrism. I took Bea in a couple of times after daycare, and we had dinner from the international food wagons at Gustav Adolfs Torg a couple of times.
There were some rides of course.
We had a pretty laid back weekend. Bea made some no-bake chocolate cookies...
...And we had a little crayfish party, traditional for August. These were locally-sourced "sea crayfish". I'm sure there's a better term for them in English. Isn't there some sort of French word for a small lobster? Something like that.
Bea likes her kräfter. We took the carcasses and made a fishy stock which got made into a Soupe de Poissons the next day. Tonight we have guests, and are serving the Soupe for a first course, barbecued pork and white beans with Provencal flavors for a main course, a cheese plate, and a plum clafoutis for dessert. Oh-la-la!
