In Sweden we have namedays as well as birthdays and it is Sara today. So my mother baked a cake for her and we enjoyed it outside in the sun. She also treated us a fantastic strawberry cake with whipped cream – who can resist?
Tonight we are having ostrich for dinner with oven baked potatoes. Mmm. We live a couple of km away from an ostrich farm – one of few in Sweden. The meat is delicious. It tastes like fillet of beef – very tender and dark.
This is the only dinner during this entire summer that the whole family is here at the same time so we thought we’d make the most of it. The ostrich meat is quite expensive.. so it is definitely not something we treat ourselves more than once per summer.
