I think it is so funny how the word “fika” has spread all over the world! It seems that nowadays you can actually say “fika” to just about anyone, and they would probably understand you. Isn’t that amazing? I wonder if it is a blog phenomenon…

I love this post! We used to have a ‘frosty bite’ when we came out of the sea as children - a little snack to warm us up again. And at school we had miniature bottles of milk with a straw and either a doughnut or chelsea bun for our elevenses. We had little books of ‘bun tickets’ with which to pay for them.

mmm fika… nice to read about other fika-like words. a less sexy in-between-meals-word in swedish is “mellanmål” (middle-dish). kids use to have mellanmål when they come home from school waiting for dinner.
