Melanzane with macaroni

Pomodoro in beehive pattern. 


What it takes to make a quick dinner.


All mixed together.


Dinner time.



 We wish this was an after photo, but this is a before... need to get back in there and sort it out...

Tokyo Edo Museum

The weather was not inspiring at all, and instead of outdoor activity outside Tokyo we decided to go to the Edo Museum in Ryougoku. After museum late lunch at a nearby restaurant. Magnus is showing of his beard.

Soupness

Brunch in the Sun and Sky Deck

Stayed in bed until almost noon, then walked over to Good Honest Grub in Ebisu. No wind, in the Sun - 6C can be quite pleasant. 


Days like these you can almost get an alpine feel on top of Mori Tower


Might be slightly difficult to see here, but Magnus is growing a beard...

A Little Bit of Spring

Got recommendation from a little lady shopping at the same grocery store as I, mix up the pink branches with some yellow. Will take a picture in daylight too. 



Judas Priest Eve


Followed by oysters, Australian bubbly and a drink at Agave. 

Magnus 35th and Bryan Adams

 It started with a - oh, why not, it could be fun... - idea. Bryan Adams in Budokan on Magnus b-day. It was fun though, but lots of songs sounds kind of the same. Makes me wonder how many unhappy (or happy) love affairs Mr Adams have had. And for those of you who ever have wonder how old he was Summer of '69 - he was 11.5 years old... Which brings us to the next hit song...."Baby you're all that I want, When you're lyin' here in my arms, I'm finding it hard to believe, ... you're 11(and a half)". He played that one too, and Budokan was so quite, I could have easily have screamed it out load... b-day boy was.... DON'T DO IT.... he was probably right...


Then Dilerium Cafe in Akasaka...



Monday Eve in Ebisu


A Few Days in Sweden

The week before this, I got sent home to Sweden for a few days for work. But with evenings free, I had a few hours   for non-work. Tuesday evening was spent with Mr Waite at Stortorget, together with a few beers, some food and chatting. 


Wednesday evening, I was invited to Martin's friend Mathias place, and got to meet his GF Helen too. Very nice Colombian food; rice, avocado, sausages (martin took mine, got extra avocado as compensation) kidney beans and chicken spiced up with coriander and ground cumin. There were some GH playing too. We had some questions about the lingering x-mas tree, but decided that it soon can be turned into an Easter decoration with some 


Thursday eve, worked late (-ish) then basically jet-lag crashed in my flat. But Friday evening, the last i had in Sweden. Went up to Billeberga, and luckily little Aron was still up. Here he is trying to open is gift. 


What ever might it be?


Then Sara demo:ed the harmonica, Melvin the dog did not appreciate at all. Jumped up and grabbed it (you could say bite, but hey he got no other means, than using his teeth). 


Aron did not bite, he just wanted to play a while...


Not everyone appreciate technology (or it could be that it is a old iPad); Aron prefers to build towers with beer cans instead. 


Then Saturday morning breakfast, with Aron, Daddy, Mother, Sara and Johan. Yes there was newly baked breakfast rolls too. 


Then a few hours later, plane was over booked so I got upgraded without having to use any mileage points. (Burn after reading on the little telly if you wonder.)
