Picnic

Rita, Axel and I went for a bike ride while Ellen was at work. Rita had found our old picnic basket in the shed and we just had to use it. She filled it up with kitchen towel, melon, a sharp knife and a knife sharpener just in case we needed it.

Axel's birthday

We came back from Germany on the 16th - just in time to celebrate Axel's birthday. Eventhough it was 1 AM when we finally reached home we managed to stir together the dough for the obligatory birthday rolls. Axel got this book from Rick and Jennifer. He also got tickets for Transformers. He loved it!

Isabella Henrietta Ingrid Margrethe

Rita was sitting in the front row when the new Danish princess was baptized Sunday. Rita had pink milk and princess cookies. She had a comment on each of the guests she saw arrive to the church. Rita had guessed the baby's name to be Diana, but she likes Isabella - which is the name of one of her friends.

The Danish Chef

Erik is quite a chef. Once in a while it he gets on idea for a meal he wants to concoct. Tonight it was pork roast stuffed with herbs and garlic. For dessert we had crepes suzettes. You might be able to see the flames on the pancakes. It was delicious!
