Cheers to a New Year
Happy New Year, everyone! Not being a party girl, my New Year’s Eve is going to be as quiet as ever. Although I am usually of a cheerful disposition, at this time of the year, strangely enough, some sort of a melancholic mood comes over me… So, perhaps it’s no wonder that my favourite New Year song is Happy New Year by ABBA.
After a little walk in my hometown, I decided to create some smörgåsar or if you prefer the Danish term to the Swedish one, smørrebrød (open sandwiches). Unfortunately, my family is not too keen on fish or seafood so I was faced with the ultimate challenge of how to create a variegated selection in both color and taste. Well, I think in the end, my attempt was quite successful.
Ring out the old, ring in the new,
Ring, happy bells, across the snow:
The year is going, let him go;
Ring out the false, ring in the true.
/Lord Alfred Tennyson/
