About the joy of cooking and baking in a Norwegian kitchen.

When it rains it pours.
One son is 23 today, one daughter will be 11 tomorrow. Øystein is working tonight, so we celebrated his birthday in his flat yesterday. And tonight I am busy baking for Marta's birthday breakfast tomorrow. It is winter break at the schools here this week, but Terje and I have to go to work early. Big sister Ingrid has promised to give Marta breakfast, and then take her downtown for some sister shopping before they meet us for dinner and a movie. Will be a perfect day for an 11 year old princess.
I asked her what she wanted for her birthday breakfast, and after some thinking she decided on sweet rolls filled with chocolat. So it seems like the chocolat mood in The Blue Café will never stop. When it rains it pours.
I just took 40 chocolate filled sweet rolls out of the oven, and of course we are allowed to eat a few now when they are still warm, with the chocolat dripping. Is there any taste sweeter than licking chocolat stained fingers?
I live in Trondheim, Norway with my husband and two daughters. Two boys have moved out to create their own homes. I work full time, and have alot of interests, but there is hardly a day when you don't find me in the kitchen, playing with old and new recipes. And if I am not to be find it the kitchen, take a look in The Blue Garden. I am a member of the Slow Food movement and a supporter of the Slower Life.
