Don't leave me!

My first meal in Sweden - no, I am not a cannibal! This is Ikea meatlballs with spaghetti and a beet-tomato sauce

I haven't abandoned this blog, I promise! It's been forever since I wrote, but I hope you understand my excuse.  I have been in Sweden for the past week, settling in, going to orientation, and to make things slightly more inconvenient, I do not have internet connection in my house yet.

Besides, you don't really want to know what kinds of dinners I have been cooking most recently...it's been so hard for me to makes tasty food, with so few ingredients and kitchenware.  But, in the past few days, I have been slowly stocking up my pantry with the essentials - canned tomatoes, spaghetti, spices...so don't leave me.  I will be back soon!
