What's for dinner?

Yesterday I had planned on making something light for dinner, but after skipping lunch I was really hungry. I started craving "järpar" (kind of like an oval beef croquette), something I haven't had since I was a kid! So I ended up making järpar with Swedish cream gravy, mashed potatoes, lingonberries and onions. Mums!

I love cooking, it is a real hobby of mine, as well as collecting cookbooks. Last night I made an Asian marinade and place a flank steak in it for overnight soaking. I am going to grill that later with some garlic broccoli and rice. Then tomorrow I am making bacon rolled chicken breast, and then...

What happened was I started to look what kind of meats I had in the freezer, and what else was in the kitchen. Based on that I made a menu for the week to come. It is so much easier when you know what you are cooking for the week, and everything can be ready. Researching recipes is fun too, I like to try new things often.

Today I have been cleaning a bit, and the house is looking good! Now all I have to do for today is take a shower and cook dinner later on. Hmmm... That stack of new magazines waiting for me is looking inviting. Great lazy Sunday!

I think we will go down to our clubhouse later too. They tore down the old playground a few months ago, and I just saw they finally put up a new one. I bet Sarah will love that!
