A smorgasbord is an assortment of different things — like a magazine might feature a smorgasbord of stories on a wide variety of subjects, like a fabulous breakfast buffet, or like this blog that features places, cultures, lifestyles, spaces as well as — the little stuff and things (which equally matters :))
In Swedish, a smorgasbord is a table laden with assorted sandwich choices. It literally translates as “butter goose table,” from smörgs, which means “bread and butter” or “bread and goose,” plus bord, or “table.”
