Tonite I just had a cheese omelette. Tomorrow, company's coming: Reindeer slivers sauteed with onions and mushrooms in a sour cream sauce flavoured with juniper berries and goat cheese (may sound wierd to non-norskies, but it's delicious!). Lingonberries on the side. Boiled potatoes. Applesauce. Sweet potato biscuits. Not sure what we'll have for dessert. Maybe just ice cream.

Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.

Hey Queen, I'm with you, it's all a real pain in the arse!
But, then again you have to eat.
Tonight was good, a homemade lasagne that I made yesterday, so no cooking tonight.............yay, and it was gorgeous.
You guys always come up with things I have never heard of:
- pea vines
- keylime pie
- lingonberries
- Reindeer slivers....hang on, you can't chop Rudolph up?
It is really good to be back on this site, so varied.

Homegrown butternut squash risotto. I'm always afraid the inlaws won't like my cooking - this one was a success!

Steamed some rice. Sauted a bunch of veges in balsamic vinegar and spices and then sauted some salmon and scallops in white wine and lemon. Put them all together for a rice bowl with a bottle of chardonnay. yum.

What is the restaurant?
Ooh Shooting Star...I saw that you live in Vancouver. My husband had our first night of our honeymoon in Vancover at the Four Seasons on our way to Whistler to ski. The concierge recommended a fabulous Chinese restaurant where they did the handmade noodles infront of you. What is the name of it?
It has been 9 years since we have been there. To this day it was still the best Chinese we have had...probably helped that we were starving and that
we were on the newlywed high....but it was still excellent!
You guys are making me hungry...date night tonight!
Going out on the town, Grandma has the kids...Pub and grubbn' gourmet pizza or a really nice dinner??? Mmmmmm??

Pea Vines?
I have never heard of pea vines. I have grown garden peasl. Are pea vines just youg garden peas, stems, leaves etc?
We had a frozen kashi pizza and lettuce-less salad - cauliflower, avacado, carrots, snap peas,, tomatoes, and cucumber with fat free ranch dressing. Sliced strawberries and a few toasted almonds for dessert. LAZY!
