Sushi.

The Sushi Club.

Sometime you just feel a need for a certain type of food. Today that type of food would be Sushi.

Sushi has a long history, the first versions of it goes back as far as to the 14th century. But the type of Sushi that we know today was created in Edo (now Tokyo) in the beginning of the 19th century. It was created as a fast food. Fast to make and easy to eat. The Japanese are always one step ahead.

The whole idea of this Japanese food is brilliant. Fresh food that tastes great and that is great for you. Sushi manages to bring the basic tastes together in a way that in lack for other words can only be described as fresh. The health aspect of Sushi is also a good one. There is almost no fat, it contains good carbohydrates and is high in protein. If we would eat food like this more often our medical bills would be a lot smaller.

So get together with some friend and make some Sushi. It's not hard at all. That's what I will do tomorrow. I just hope that I somehow can make my favorite, Kaziki Nigirzushi the one with swordfish.

White Shirt.


Blazing White.

Buttoning a shirt is a special feeling. Buttoning a nice shirt is even better, especially when you have a shirt that require cuff links. But besides the feeling of putting it on it's all about style. I don't think it's possible to NOT look good in a nice white shirt. Okay, maybe if the person in question is ugly as f#ck (but then nothing is going to help). My point is that it's hard to go wrong with a white shirt.

And if you think that just a white shirt is not enough to hit the club with then simply put on a black tie. I have noticed that not to many people wear this combo when going out. Most people might wear a colored shirt or a t-shirt when going out. But just the white shirt and the black tie combined with your other "normal" clothes will make you stand out. It's strange really, because a white shirt and a black tie is one of the most classic things to wear.

So when in doubt, white shirt.

Have a great weekend and I we will see each other on Sneaker Monday.

Midsummer.


Midsummer's eve the pagan holiday.


Today millions of people in north Europe will be celebrating this old holiday. It is actually the most celebrated holiday next to Christmas. The pagan holidays are just more fun. And for good reason. As you can see in the picture people will gather on fields and in meadows and erect big fallos symbols to symbolise fertility. Hoping that the harvest will go well. It's the summer solstice. After the big midsummers pole is up people start to dance around it and traditional music is played.

After the dancing is over the real party starts. People gather with friend and family for a feast that must contain at least three things, pickled herring, potatoes and Snaps. You eat some and then you sing a drinking song and then you drink. And you drink. And after that you drink some more. You sing and then drink. It's a lot of fun. Nice food, drink, friends and family.

It is also said that you can see in to the future on this night. You can see who is your one true love. All you need to do is to pick seven different flowers in seven different meadows and then place them under your pillow. During the night you will dream about your big love.

Trevlig Midsommar! And have a nice weekend. See you Monday with a new pair of sneakers.

Chicken delicious, Chickalicious.


BBQ's finest.

There is something about cooking meat on a grill. The fire's glow, the smoke and then the smell of meat being roasted to perfection. The best stuff here is really chicken. Chicken that has bin marinaded for at least 12 hours. Try this recipe the next time your making chicken.
Get some nice chicken breast. Cut it to long stripes, smaller peaces will absorb more flavor. Put them in a plastic bag. Then pore a little cola and honey in the bag. Spice with oregano, pepper, thyme and if you like spicy a little chili. Leave that in the fridge for 24 hours and then simply trow it on the grill. That's how you make the Max honeylicious chicken.

New studies show that chicken is the most environmental meat out there. Many chickens for a small amount energy. But the real advantage is the high protein rate in this meat. Filled with protein and low on fat. Chicken is what made men like the Governator and Sly Stallone well that and a lot of pills.
