Eating

Paella is one of the most famous Spanish dishes. The mixture of rice, chicken, pork, and seafood is slow cooked and tough to beat. Our friend and language tutor, Karine, prepared it for us and my parents. We had a great time eating and talking about how we eat – manners, customs, and faux pas.

Pumpkin Stew!

I found a recipe for pumpkin stew in my favorite brand of cookbooks, The Gooseberry Patch.
I used some of the bear meat that my dad had given us to make the stew, and it turned out really well! You should check out his blog: www.bowhuntingroad.com
Heather and I hollowed out the pumpkin and then we put the stew into the pumpkin and baked it for an hour. Yum!

Cookout!

We had some friends over and grilled earlier this month. I don’t claim to be a master, but I can poke a stick through a vegetable and piece of meat with the best of them.

 Adam had the responsibility of making sure none of the artwork perished upon the flame.
