Did you have a good weekend? Cotton Candy and I were on a little mom & daughter weekend trip in Stockholm. It was amazing. The weather was totally on our side, sunny & warm like on a proper summer day. Skirts without stockings! We saw our friend who lives there. Went shopping, ate well, enjoyed the city, caught a museum, walked our friends dogs, ate ice-cream, saw the cherry trees blooming and hung out in our pretty room. Our hotel, the Hotel Diplomat, was gorgeous and I love spending one on one time with family menbers. It really does wonders to realationships be it my mom, husband or either kid or even my brother. I took a lot of photos & stories videos and compiled them under ” Stockholm” on the lattemammanblogi Instagram for you to see.
Have a great start to the week!

Salad love
by Sofia - in Cooking
This is a go to salad in our family. Especially for us adults ( my kids love veggies, berries and fruits but for some reason they are still not big on mixed salads). It´s a super simple goat cheese salad but we also eat it without the cheese with chicken ( you can just buy a rotisserie chicken to eat with it) or you can obviously even do both if you like. This is really a non-recipe so I don´t have proper amounts. It´s just a basic combination idea for you. So the base is a mixed salad, I love using baby spinach and a mixture of leafy green salads. Then we add avocado, pear, strawberries, lots of sweet basil and toasted pine nuts. We top the salad with a balsamic reduction ( after toasting the pine nuts on a dry pan you can take them out and use the hot pan to boil balsamic vinegar with either sugar, muscovado sugar or honey). Then I just add good olive oil, salt & pepper on the salad and drizzle it with the reduction. The goat cheese is cut in to pieces and grilled in the oven so that it melts a little and gets a crispy crust. It is such a delicious and simple salad for any day. It sound like a lot f work but really isn´t and you can even buy the reduction ready made in a squeeze bottle ( I just had some at a friend´s island cottage and it was really good).
