Years ago, when Tim and I were in college, we went on a choir tour overseas. We visited Iceland, Norway and Sweden and sang in some truly breathtaking locations. We have very fond memories of that tour.

One of the very memorable things was the elaborate breakfasts they served. I remember eating a LOT at breakfast. Partly because it was the only free meal of our day and the rest we had to pay for… but also because it was so delicious.

The breakfast display was chocked full of:

  • All kinds of breads
  • Cheeses
  • Sliced meats
  • Jellies, jams and marmalades
  • juices
  • yogurts
  • fruits of all kinds
  • coffee, teas, juices and sparkling juices
  • pastries

See? What is there not to love?

I told the kids about it the other day and they exclaimed that they wanted to have it too! So, we created what we loving call our “Swedish Mix” breakfast. It consists of an apple thinly sliced, yogurt (or cheese stick) and toast with raspberry jam.

Delicious and beautiful.
