Norway: An Evening in Farsund – Scallops and White Wine

Farsund Blog

The other evening, AC and Kristian had me over for scallops and white wine. They live right down by the fjord, so Kristian just threw on his wetsuit and picked the scallops straight out of the water. He had also caught a small turbot with his bare hands (!), so dinner that night was pasta with scallops, turbot, and shrimp.

I watched as he cleaned the fish and shucked the scallops, and I don’t think more than 20 minutes passed from sea to skillet. Kristian had made a savory sabayon, which he poured over the pasta before topping it with the seafood. It tasted so fresh and delicious. We had a glass of Sancerre on the side, which paired perfectly with the dish. Such an amazing dinner. It still blows my mind that they have access to all that incredible seafood, right outside their front door. Just a quick dive and dinner’s sorted.

My mom collects seashells, so the first thing she said when she saw the photos I sent her was to bring some shells home.I washed and cleaned 6 shells and left them to dry on the terrace. Forgot to take them home the following day, so I guess I have to visit soon again:)

Foldable Flats - A Lifesaver in New York City

A pair of foldable flats is one of those things you don't think you need until you do. I always keep a pair in my purse for New York, whether it's after a night out in heels, a day of sightseeing that turned into 20,000 steps, or a long subway ride home. They barely take up any space and are a total lifesaver when comfort suddenly becomes the priority.

Mitzie Mee - Sanne

Hi, I’m Sanne, the person behind Mitzie Mee, and this is my blog where I share what I’ve been up to lately. The posts here are more personal and a little less polished than the rest of the site, with updates from the road as well as from home. I post frequently, so there’s usually something new to read. Food and travel are naturally a big part of my life, but you’ll also find everyday moments, thoughts, and glimpses of what goes on behind the scenes.
