Next door to Höje Bakery there is a small old store, Lanthandel, selling only ecological food. A lot of it is produced in Värmland. It is inspiring and I am trying to stick to what they, and the forest, have to offer. It is not very hard to stick to it actually. Even though I do not like ice cream I just had to try the locally made vanilla ice. I had it with lingonberry jam that I made.

I hope the people in the area are aware of how lucky they are to have the bakery and the store around the corner.

ps. On this plate I also have the best Olives in the world. They are not from Värmland but were brought from Berlin since I can not live without them too long.
