This past weekend was the first official day of summer and even though we weren't in Sweden {last year's celebration was the best!} we decided to do our own mini Midsummer celebration to commemorate the season. We made a bunch of different dishes, both Swedish inspired and not, and spent the day cooking, eating, drinking {we whipped out some bottles of aquavit and other traditional liqueur}, and listening to music, and while we didn't have all the singing, fabulous guests, and delicious courses of food like we did last year, it was still fun to try to create our own little celebration for the start of summer. Cheers to that!
