Book club over a Swedish Fika
As a Swede, I feel it is my duty to bring the Swedish fika to the table. The fika is the moment of the day when we all gather with a cup of coffee and a cake (or something similar), whether it is with colleagues, acquaintances, friends or family.
In most workplaces, the coffee break is a must that you can’t say no to. For a short while, colleagues gather around a table with a coffee. Here, an important part of the interaction takes place in the workplace, a chance for exchanges of ideas, spontaneous problem-solving or just small talk where you get to know the person behind the job title. Informal or not - some say that the best idéas comes from a fika.

Before the session you distribute the ingredients, one ingredient for each participant, as far as it lasts. Each participant is responsible for preparing their part before the book club meets. At the next meeting, the participants exchange ingredients.

My favorite plate from my childhood in Spain was an outside cooked mixed paella. Paella was originally farm laborers' food, cooked by the workers over a wood fire. It was made with rice, plus whatever was to hand around the rice fields and countryside. Paella however would be a different dish without the Romans who brought the pan and the Arab because of rice and saffron.
Today there are many varieties of paella, the typical ones are seafood paella and mixed paella which combines meat from livestock, seafood, vegetables, and sometimes beans, with the traditional rice. Often a giant paella is the centerpiece for many fiestas.
