Blueberry risotto

Though only the future can tell how wise it was, I felt like picking up the speed a bit on my half marathon this morning, running in 1 hour and 53 minutes or about half an hour faster than my usual LSD-lull. With five half marathons done and two to go, I am optimistic that I will be able to finish this crazy challenge even if its net benefits remain uncertain (given the lack of recovery time).

Yesterday, I learnt that the Swedish Research Council had rejected my project entitled “Trolls or truth-seekers: Towards productive disagreement in Swedish climate politics”. With an approval rate in the single digits, I know I should not take this personal, but it was still a disappointment as I really believed in the project. To help me cope with the outcome, I had a lovely lunch with my former colleague and friend Sofie at Sorellina. Seeing a "blueberry mushroom risotto" on the menu, we were both immediately intrigued and, luckily, it turned out to be a great choice.
