Hello Friends and Family
Welcome to my new blog! No promises, but hopefully this one will be a little more consistent and longer lasting than the previous one. (Hint: the more comments you leave, the more I will feel inclined to write!) The reason for the switch is that with WordPress I can update my blog from my Iphone, my new love, second only to my darling princess. But more on that later. For now the name, very long, very complicated and why? Well, I have discovered, these last 18 months that I have been an American Hausfrau, that I love making Berry Crumbs (Smulpaj) and Raglan Sweaters.
Berry Crumbs, because they’re easy, with ingredients that I always have on hand and take only 20 minutes. But best of all they taste better the next day, so after the guests leave I have something to look forward to. So I thought it would be a good idea to share what I else I do with ingredients from my kitchen and link to yummy recipes I find. Like the best corn bread muffins you will ever eat:
Raglan sweaters, also pretty easy to knit, everybody is always very impressed and the finished item gives me way more satisfaction than a scarf. Though I do enjoy knitting scarfs as well. You will read plenty about my knitting adventures. Probably more than you will ever want.
So that is it for now. It is a start. I will figure out how to post pictures soon. Just not tonight. And don’t worry I will share my best berry crumb recipe and link to good raglan sweater patterns.
Oh and for those of you wondering, I don’t really love my iphone more than my darling husband and adorable sons.

Yay! I am sitting here working on formatting a blog and ta-dah, my google reader tells me there’s a new post. I am so happy to hear your voice online again…especially as getting us 2 household managers on the tele seems impossible these days. So, here’s your first comment. And I’m glad to see that it’ll be feasible to have 3 littles and blog! I’m quite impressed. 🙂 How’s baby and family doing? Much love, jeanine

Thanks for the support! I’m excited about the blog. Just hoping that I will be able to stick with it this time. I’ve missed you the last couple of weeks and hope you are doing well. We are doing well, getting into our groove, figuring out this three kid thing. I want to hear how you are doing, let’s try and talk soon! Big love

underbart Anna! Äntligen en blogg med smulpajsrecept! Men vad betydde eg. Raglan sweaters? Är det ngt vi sen kan beställa av dig?
Nåväl. Bilder vill vi se här på bloggen och kommentarer ska du få.
Hoppas verkligen vi ses en sväng i sommar.
Kram Lotta

Tack Lotta! Det känns bra det här. Och visst är smulpaj världens bästa. Men jag måste varna, mitt recept har sjukt mycket smör och socker, förklaringen till varför den är så god. Raglan tröja är en typ av stickad tröja, så fort jag har sytt på knapparna lägger jag upp ett foto. Kram på dig vännen.

This is great news Anna! I’ve missed reading about your MA adventures…and of course seeing pics of the 3 little ones. Write when you can…I’ll look forward to it.
Love,
Kathy

Thanks Kathy. It is great to hear that people are reading and liking what I write. This one is definitely a work in progress. I have some ideas and am excited about seeing them implemented. I am curious to see where the blog will end up. Feedback on the way will always be greatly appreciated.
