Romme

I have just enjoyed a quiet late lunch with the house to myself for a minute or two. Pyttipanna with a fried egg. Yum.

My youngest is having a great time (I hope) with a winter sportsday up in Romme. He will be snowboarding all day and we dropped him off around 6 this morning and will pick him up again 12-13 hrs later. I hope they will come back exhausted but happy!

Going to bake some more rye bread when I have some new energy. Our new favorite breakfast rolls. Not to mention the freshly baked one with our evening tea..

Sotji – day 5

Our pride and joy -Tre Kronor – played their first game tonight against Czechia with the great Jaromir Jagr. We will also meet Latvia and Switzerland in the first round.

We started out great with a quick 4-0 lead, then they woke up and made two quick goals but we were able to pull ourselves together and keep the distance. Perfect start!

I really hope our team will go far in this Olympics – we didn’t do too well in the last one but won gold before that. We have a pretty strong team but are missing a couple of stars due to injuries.

Our men and women have played curling – the round robin continues – with some wins and some losses. I don’t really know how far it will take them. Two of our ladies have competed in the downhill but with no top ten result.

Exhausted

Tuesday – my long day. Quite busy all day which is how I like it.

Now I have crashed in my corner trying to update myself on today’s sport events. Very dramatic ski final. Amazing!

Sotji – day 4

What a day! One silver and one bronze to our excellent skiers Peterson and Jönsson. And we even had 3 skiers in the final but the third one came in last.

Our hockey ladies won towards Germany! Good job! Much more stabile than the first game.

A few more good results but no more medals.

Lasagna

My youngest is a brilliant cook and we made a great lasagna together for dinner! It is so much fun to spend time cooking with him – he has a great pallet and tastes and adds herbs and spices as he cooks. I wonder if there is a culinary future for him..

You can find the recipe in my cookbook!

Moguls today.. both our guys made it to the finals.

Biathlon didn’t go too well though..

Sundby Gård

A lovely Sunday brunch at Sundby Gård to celebrate my mother-in-law. It was really nice except for the pooring rain. The restaurant has a fantastic view over the lake Orlången and we were hoping for a nice walk after lunch but the weather didn’t allow us.

Now an afternoon in my corner enjoying the Olympics on tv. Two days – two silver medals so far!

Good start for Damkronorna – our women hockey team with victory 1-0 towards Japan.

A second silver today in skiathlon! Congratulations to Marcus Hellner!

Sotji – day 1

The first day has almost come to an end – and Sweden has been rewarded with a silver medal in skiathlon. Congratulations Charlotte Kalla!

Sven Thorgren came 4th in the slopestyle but he did so good we all thought he would receive a medal. But the judges didn’t agree.

The other Swedes had an ok day but no more top 5.
