Food glorious food....

For those of you that dont know me that well - I LOVE FOOD!! and one of the best food experiences is to go and visit my mother-in-law. She is a wonderful cook!! (in fact she is just a wonderful lady!! I have the best mother-in-law you could wish for!)

Anyway today we went to visit Kristians parents. We had a lot of catching up to do since it has been a while since we have seen them. The food was wonderful (we werent disappointed there! oh yeah, and the company was wonderful too!!) Our neice Christine lives next door and since her parents weren´t home, she came to eat dinner too.

We had lamb done in loads of garlic - yuumhhh!! - it was good. Served with potatoes and a salad with a difference...it was just lettuce mixed in whipped cream with a bit of lemon juice and a sprinkle of sugar. It was different but it tasted soooo good. Along with this was served a cucumber salad. The cucumbers are marinated in vinegar and sugar....I love her cucumber salad. There was garlic bread as an extra, just in case there wasnt enough food for us all. But she needed have worried there was loads of food!



Above we are all enjoying our meal.

Below is Leah and Granny Rasmussen - who we call FARMOR (which directly translated is FathersMother)


Above is cousin Christine with Leah and Farmor (Leahs Farmor is Christines Mormor - which directly translated is Mothers mother - now work that one out!)



For dessert we had cake with cream and Danish flødeboller - they are like English tea cakes.


We had a really lovely evening with them.

Well with all that garlic, it's a good job you were all family:-) And at least if you both eat it, then you don't mind kissing eachother!!!!!!

Isn't it great to have a good mother-in-law, especially one that is a great cook!
