Fat Tuesday and Semla!


I prefer these delicious sweet buns filled w/ almond paste and whipped cream to the church pancake supper on Fat Tuesday.  My wonderful neighbor Mattias (pictured above) made some.  Being the wonderful neighbors that he and his wife Lili are, they sent out an email inviting us to partake.  Mattias mentioned that he used the recipe that his mother always used in Sweden.  

Of course I googled Semla -- apparently they sell them at IKEA!  I bet they're not as good as Mattias's.
