Good friends, Sushi & wine = a helluva good time...

-
OK I know y'all think I am a pretty cool chic... the kind of chic who would be eating SUSHI all of the time... cause it is the cool thing to do, but I have to admit...I had never tried nor had the desire to try sushi (regardless of how COOOOL it sounds) until last night..



We headed over to the fabulous Caroline's to celebrate her birthday...

We had SUSHI... which I must admit was AWESOME... who knew? (Ok obviously a lot of y'all )& L O A D S of red wine.... mix that up with wonderful friends & you have a hellava good time.

Don't get me started on Caroline... I could just G U S H about what a lovely person she is.... Not often that you meet someone & you just CLICK...especially when you meet each other via a blog... & on top of that our families CLICKED.... I am just so thrilled that they moved to our little corner of Norway..

Anyhoooo....
to counteract Caroline's healthy SUSHI, I had to make her my famous... "Fat girl Fantasy..."
with all of the kidlets in tow singing "Happy Birthday"








Look at Mrs. Gorgeous... looking & feeling FABULOUS.... Hope you had a SUPER day... Thanks for the sushi & wine

That looks like so much fun!

I must know how to make this "Fat girl Fantasy." Please share. Not that I should be eating it, but I just must know!

That cake looks awesome! (Cake? Pastry? Pie?) And so does the birthday girl! I was dubious about sushi for a long time, and fell in love with it! Now I'm super stoked when friends won't eat their sashimi, because that means I get it all!

You couldn't pay me enough to eat Sushi... hubby has tried many times and failed.

Looks like a good time!!

How can you put a picture of a Fat girl fantasy and then not tell us all how to make it??

I can't do sushi. I've tried the california rolls...and yuck. Michael loves it though.

I think we need a "fat girl fantasy" blog stat! I love sushi but i usually only have the vegetarian variety. We even make it at home once in a while. Raw fish isn't my scene.

I only just discovered sushi too!! I got put off by the raw fish thing for years, and I still avoid those (is that sashimi? I think it is), but the rest turns out to be pretty damn good!

And what, oh what, is in that Fat Girl Fantasy?????? Don't tease us - post the recipe because it looks AMAZING!!!!

Sounds like you guys had an awesome night :o)

Hey you... hungry butt!

Hey you, Hungry butt!!!! .... First thought that played through my mind as I stood behind the woman in the GREY SWEATPANTS in line at the post office..... Hungry Butt is what my little sister & her friends say when referring to what in my day, was called a WEDGIE ..... "Hungry Butt" just fit the large bottom , which was gobbling its underwear in front of me.... Ugh.... the sight of her butt was burning into my mind as I waited in the ridiculously SLOW line at the post office.... No longer able to stand the site... I put my boxes down... and did the neighborly thing.... I pulled her underwear out of her butt.... You should have seen the SHOCK & SURPRISE on her face ... Ummm , OK I didn't do that... I tapped her on her shoulder & in my best AMERICAN accent announced to her & the rest of the post office... that she had the picture perfect HUNGRY BUTT... cause it was gobbling everything in sight... K... I didn't do that either... I just stood...

A visit to the ICE AGE....

Sunday... FUN-DAY, Another family day..... Because we had such nice weather, (never knowing how long it will last) we decided to take another family hike.... (2.5 hours....) around the be ach. It is funny, each week, each hike, I see changes in our family....less whining (on my part) & more time learning, enjoying our time together....Bjørn who usually gets irritated with all of my picture taking, is stopping to find things to take pictures of...appreciating colors, nature etc. Dane is less squeamish...touching & picking up all of sorts of things he finds along the hike.... Today we learned about Jettegryter or "Stone Pots" these huge rock formations from the ICE AGE .... pretty cool... these holes are formed by pebbles/gravel being aggitated by water, over thousand of years.... WOW..The holes on our local beach date back to 15,000 years.... the kids had a blast.... & wanted to stay much long...
