Suddenly Friday.


How do these weeks just fly by at this time of the year?  One minute I was bracing myself for Monday and now I’m easing into Friday.
The following apparently happened somewhere in between….

A beautiful full moon cast its shimmery reflection across the water as the sun began to rise.

I scored myself a free first thing in the morning coffee.  Sipping that coffee as I head home to begin the morning hustle routine gives me serenity.
As we’ve hit those golden thirtysomething degree days, chilled watermelon wedges have made a pleasant return to our after-dinner fruit rotation.

Icy poles have been embraced with as much passion as the watermelon.  These healthier ones are nice enough but I’m craving those 100% artificially coloured and flavoured Zooper Doopers.  They take me back to summer holiday swimming lessons with my brothers and how we’d just endlessly snack after those energetic morning swims.

Behold!  A Danish Butter Cookie tin that’s full of … Danish butter cookies!!  Well, mostly full at the time of publication…

I’ve introduced a new generation to the delights of Danish Butter Cookies. 

They’re made in Portugal these days but that buttery biscuit crumb is just as I remember.

The ‘curly’ biscuits are my favourites and Master SSG seems to agree.  We’ve had to hit the second layer for them already.  The only thing I’m a bit sad about is that the raisin cookie seems to have been replaced by choc chip.  If I look hard enough, perhaps there might still be a brand that makes that raisin version.

Another Danish delight that’s occupying the hearts of SSG Manor 2.0 – Cecelie Copenhagen.  So  summer, so Scandi, so chic.

Be well and wishing you a lovely weekend ahead.
