Few days old, but did some pea soup.

I had a Swedish girlfriend in college and her family would have this every Thursday - pea soup with bacon and mustard.

Is it a similar tradition in Finland?

In deed it is.

The custom comes from catholic Friday fasting. Pea soup with bacon on Thursday was readily available and high protein & energy food carrying you over the next days fasting. The fasting got removed after one guy nailed some thesis to church door but the habit stuck.

Mustard & onion are there to make that stuff edible. Usually the dessert for this is pancakes, whipped cream & jam.

btw: You can thicken it by crumbling knäkkebröd into it :)

Yes, her mom would serve Ryvita and make crepes for dessert. ?

My favorite is scallops but I won't pay the price they are asking lately. Bought the tuna steaks from Costco a couple months back and even with them being frozen they cook up and taste like fresh on the grill.

Smoked some hot wings and running gear on the Weber today.

Nice - I love cooking up a big mess of wings in the smoker! So delicious. I want to try something different and I’m still trying to find a butcher here who has frog’s legs.

Yeah, yeah, I know, sounds weird to some of you but if you’ve ever been to a pub in Quebec, they are as popular as wings are anywhere else.

They taste great too!
