Birthday Party

It is Danish tradition to throw your own birthday party/dinner.  tonight we went to Mette Paulsen's Birthday and instead of gifts she asked us all to bring food for the dinner.  It turned out to be such a good idea.  Everyone brought the dish Mette liked and requested.

 She had cleared out all the furniture in their f ront room and set up this beautiful long trable for 15 of us.

Gertte on the left is her church mom and basically raised her.  It was a delightful evening.
