Fat Tuesday!

Picture is from my local cafe in Berga
Today is Pancake day or Fat Tuesday as we say in Sweden. The day when we scoff this cake called Semla. A sturdy bun with lots of whipped cream and a middle filled with an almond paste. The season for eating semla has been stretched out and now you see them in the shops just a few days after Christmas. I'm not going to be the judge and say that that kind frivolous  semla eating should be banned but at the same time this special day is not so special any more. I wont be eating semla today .Not after discovering this local cafe and visiting a few times to many . There is also a junkshop/ antique shop so it's perfect for a lazy sunday trip.
