Cloudberries.























Cloudberries brought back home tonight after a mountain trip earlier today.

We call them "molter" and they are just delicious!
With yoghurt or with cream..... Yummy!

Gallery SULT

















More handmade art. This time from the Gallery Sult.

I like the bright happy colors and the fun/humor in many of the items.
Take a look at the website for more information about the artists. Kai Hoffstad and Kari Hoffstad Gjone.

Handmade glasses made here in Stavanger.
Yes, I did do a bit of shopping.
And one day I hope to show you some images of the artist at work.
I bought them at "Gladmat", the Food Festival.

GLADMAT 2013

























We have had the "Gastronomic Institute" here in Stavanger since 1988, and of course they were represented at the food festival.


The institute is well known both nationally and internationally.



I bought a sample of their nice looking and very tasty food.

It was just delicious!

Yesterday there were also speeches by the major, Christine Sagen Helgø, to the right, and people who were involved in arranging the festival. From the left: Mona Vervik, Anita Løyning and Gaute Birkeli who represented the jury. Even the food and agriculture minister came to the opening.

Here you see
