Celebrating Women With Swedish Semla

Today is International Women's Day, woop woop for us women! But there is also a special Swedish day called "fettisdagen". On this day we eat a special bun called semla or fastlagsbulle. Because I live in the UK I realised I hadn't had a semla for years, and I really love them! So today I made some... they were just as good as I remember! James and I had them with coffee, he had never had a semla and absolutely loved it!

I will post the recipe shortly!

  5. Mums! Jag och Jonas åkte till Nykvarn med en var sin semla i bagaget men de var så stora att jag inte orkade äta upp den.. Skandal, jag vet! Dina såg ut att vara i mer realistisk storlek =) Puss!

  9. Mmm, that looks so delicious!

    My friend (who is from Sweden!) made some delicious Saint Lucia bread not too long ago. I love that Sweden celebrates little holidays with yummy food. Jealous! :)
