Alright, I know this is kind of a strange title...it does encompass this week so. On Wednesday the girlies went back to school, and in the evening we were invited to our friend Martin's Birthday Party. What a way to start the year off right :) Let me just say that all of us had so much fun. The girlies played happily with Sebastian, while we enjoyed some great adult conversation with our friends. And yes, there was also food. My friend Larissa - the other parental unit of Sebastian - made the best sausage and peppers. It was so so good...
Larissa went out of her way to make sure that the girlies will be able to eat. She read every label, and even bought "safe" bread for them. You know, it means the world to me when friends go out of their way to make sure the girlies are included. It is so wonderful! Take a look - the "unsafe" bread was even marked...
There was even dessert for the girlies - delicious soy ice cream...fantastic ending to the first day of school. Right?!
Are you curious about our dinners the rest of the week? Well, I can lift the suspense...Thursday we had Raclette; we baked it individual dishes in the oven - placed the potato at the bottom of each dish, topped it with sausage, veggies, and Gruyere {or raclette for Ron & I} and baked it in the oven at 350F until it is melted to perfection.
Tonight's dinner was lentil soup packed with veggies and the Wiener's leftover from New Years Eve. Alongside we had a loaf of crusty bread {quick version of no knead bread} and a big bowl of green salad. An easy, satisfying dinner....
How has your first half week of 2013 been? Did you have a good start? I would love to hear it...
