Fika Haiku
Warm coffee, bulle
sugar gossip served on side
time to Fika now!
Tee, hee. Well not much of a poet but it is nice to take some time to treat yourself during the course of the day to a break with a nice cup of joe and preferably a sweet to go with, like a bulle (bun). I miss the days of sitting and chatting with my friends, or mom. I made this painting when I was missing the warmth of my mother's kitchen and being able to stop by for fika with her.
I've seen a lot on the web lately about the idea of fika, it's certainly not too hard of a concept but I guess the simple things are something for which we all long. Connecting over a cup of coffee everyday is a simple but well deserved treat. Here's a nice recipe for bullar (Swedish buns) that you may like to have with your coffee. https://sweden.se/culture-traditions/cinnamon-buns/ Fika mera!
Addendum from Vecko Revyn, included in the 18 things you miss from Sweden when you live in a foreign country. Yum!
