Angela’s birthday weekend
March 29th, 2011 § 4 Comments
A weekend filled with food, friends and much dishwashing in my tiny kitchen! Angela arrived in need of a snack and a glass of wine, and I was obviously happy to oblige. 
We had Lauren and her two sweet sisters over for dinner Friday, and I made a thai green curry and a huge pot of rice.
(I have no idea why they’re all looking so concerned!)
Saturday morning we made circus shaped waffles. I used a recipe from one of Elin’s Norwegian cookbooks, that I took a photo of with my phone over Christmas. Funny that I’ve been holding onto it and I’m just now using it. Delicious! The waffle maker was one of Angela’s birthday presents…
And they sure were cute!
For a birthday dinner on Saturday, we made pizza! Every kind you can imagine. I recently purchased a pizza stone, and it has really changed pizza for me. It gets so crispy on the bottom, and it takes so little time to bake.
After what felt like 100 pizzas, it was time to end the night with a little bit of homemade ice cream! Chocolate chip cookie dough.
I was too busy to take photos, but luckily Angela snapped a few with my camera. This was a whirlwind of a weekend, but I am always happy to host such great friends! I do have to say, though, I’ll be ever grateful the day that I live somewhere with a dishwasher!
Oh, soooooo wonderful! Thanks for hosting, and for the great blog and photos – makes my heart soar!!! Love, C
