I know, let's have a Dinner party!

some of the best parts of being a young adult is that you can throw dinner parties but still get shit faced.
I'm so sad I completely forgot to take pictures of the table when it was set with all the goodies.
I guess you'll have to settle with the dessert table.
oh well!

*after a lovely dinner made by yours truly*

I really hope that in Norway people will like to do this type of stuff.

actually my books talk about this and it seems that if (and that's a big if) a norwegian couple invites you to their home, it's because they really, really like you, otherwise you'll never see their new kitchen set!

*one of the desserts, vanilla cream pie with strawberries & kiwi*

I must say I thoroughly enjoy being a hostess.

I just love seeing everyone happy enjoying a good homemade meal and knowing that I could give them that happiness.

it's a warm feeling indeed.

the menu was:
prosciutto filled palmier, green olives stuffed with peppers, goat cheeses and pickled cornichons for starters
classic Italian lasagna for the main course
and strawberry salad, vanilla cream pie with strawberries & kiwi, and coffee cake for dessert

all of the above (to the exception of the coffee cake brought by lovely Raquel) was made from scratch by me, including doughs and sauces that people usually like to buy already made, but I enjoy it much more when I do everything!
yes, you got me... I love cooking!!

it was a lovely night spent with lovely people.
I can't wait for a repeat.
