Food glorious food

The New Year was met with lots and lots of food at last night's family shindig. Lots of good, traditional Jewish cooking like gefilte fish (not that keen on it myself), and other more exotic concoctions, such as spicy pumpkin. All washed down with copious amounts of beer and wine. For dessert, it was the Maccabi Tel Aviv against Bayern Munich ("Nazis" as so succinctly put by mrs. anglosaxy's 9 year old cousin) game, which was a little bit disappointing because they had a chance or two to get something from the game. Unfortunately, it was a 1-0 loss, and that meant a few grumpy faces...

Today was an easy day, just a cycle round the park for me and M coming over for a beer. Mrs. anglosaxy has spent the majority of the day at her parent's place - poor kid, she hadn't seen them for at least 8 hours...Tomorrow it's another big family meal, this time in Rananna with the new in-laws. The girl that married mrs. anglosaxy's brother is a diamond, while her mother is a legendary cook, I'm salivating already as to what we can expect tomorrow...
