pickled herrings

seen as i was in Ikea on the way back from Bern/Murten, i got myself 2 jars of pickled herrings. i haven't had them in years and i really love them. when i opened one jar, the smell reminded me of my childhood. i had my first bite (yummy!) and felt like i was back in Denmark, which is kind of strange considering i rarely ever ate pickled herrings there. but it was a nice feeling, and i can't wait to go back there this summer after a 2-year hiatus.
