First of all, thank you for visiting our blog!
Unlike normal websites, blogs are online diaries and are generally organsied by either date or by category. It occured to me the other day that it’s a little difficult to navigate this blog unless you know your way around and you just might miss some interesting topics relating to Norwegian culture so here’s a quick guide!
How To Navigate This Blog:
By Category: On the left hand menu there’s a heading called “Interesting Topics”. You can select one of those and find posts that way
By Date: On the left hand menu there’s another heading called “Previous Posts”. Select the drop down box and choose a month
Latest Posts: If you click on the title “A New Life In Norway” at the top of the page, you’ll get the latest blog posts on one page – you just need to scroll down some way
I want to hear more about growing potatoes in Norway. Do alot of gardenners grow poatoes, which varieties? Do they not get frosted and waterlogged how are they cooked. I suppose most will buy in the supermarkets?

Hi John – thanks for your questions. Whilst I’m not an expert I did find this video online which I think will show you tricks of the trade to growing potatoes in Norway. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjxx7odLTko Mandel potatoes some to be most popular in the supermarkets. Translated this means “Almond Potatoes” – not great for cooking to be honest. Most folks boil them and serve them with every meal. Bit like the Irish in that respect :-)
