Mike, Jess and I hosted a dinner party at the flat last night - a dinner party, that is, with a twist. We invited three people. Each guest had to prepare a dish to bring along. The only condition? That nobody confer with anyone else about what dish they intended to make. So we COULD have ended up with six puddings! As it turned out, the selection was just about perfectly balanced. One starter - devils eggs; two mains - chicken salad and cabbage meat rolls (an east German speciality lovingly rustled up by Martin); and two desserts - peach pie and Kaisserschmarrn (a popular Austrian sweet loosely translated as 'king pooh', according to Steffen).
Accompanied by wine, rum and coke, it was a great evening all round.
Thanks a lot for your frequent updates. I love reading them. In this case, however, I have to make the one correction. Kaiserschmarrn is more "king rubbish"
