Swedish wife will not be coming out with a cookbook, like Teresa Guidice has. This is because Swedes aren’t big on food. They eat, but no one really knows what. I’m half Swedish and I still have no idea what my people’s food is. Meatballs, of course. Herring, and other fish in a can, smoked meats. Basically, stuff you can store over an 8-month winter.
Swedish wife may have a tendency to brood. If she starts to go all “Ingmar Bergman,” the cast can rally around her and take her to a karaoke bar. They can all get loopy on Cosmopolitans and sing some Abba. Who wouldn’t want to watch that?

I feel bad for the people living in Italy right now with the idiots from Jersey Shore shackin' up over there. Unfortunately, the Italians are gonna think that everyone here in the US are like the JS cast members. Wow - Let's talk about Ugly Americans!
