The fair was fun!

Friday, December 14th, 2007

It’s almost a week since the veggie fair (Vegomässan) now and I finally feel rested. Well… as much as I will get this winter. I had an awesome time. Every single one of my 110 bags of xmas sweets sold out and half an hour before we had to start packing our things up I was out of pretty much everything. I talked to lots of interesting people, got many compliments on the sweets and a few on our awesome tree. All in all, I’m happy about the day. It was very cramped in there, next time they need more space but other than that I have no complaints. Oh except for my ears! When they were sound testing on the stage I thought I was going to go mad.

Ok, have some pictures!

Phipps is sleeping, again!

Before the fair we were supposed to be working hard but Phipps decided to sleep. Again!

We used a massive amount of chocolate

We used so much chocolate, 4 kgs!

Denmark is awesome.. also not!

Friday, October 12th, 2007

So we went to Denmark yesterday. It was one of those one day bus trips that mostly old people go to. I think there was a total of five people under 65 on that trip. Anyhow, it was nice and we’re happy we went. Lunch was included and we got…. a salad. Denmark is the land of meat and beer. Seriously, I think they have meat sandwiches for breakfast, a big steak, some bacon on top and another big steak. Yep, that sure sounds like Denmark to me. We’d told in advance (well in advance) that we’d like to have a vegetarian meal, we didn’t request anything vegan as I knew that would just not work. When we finally got to have lunch I was so hungry I thought I’d start gnawing off my own leg. Here’s what we got for our lunches.

oh denmark, you never fail to amaze me

Before lunch we were joking and saying they’d probably serve us fish. Phew, we were wrong. Sure, the plate LOOKS nice, but I was only hungrier after having finished it. A cold salad plate of lettuce, peas, tomato and cucumber topped with two decorative slices of bell pepper. I was sad! We made up for it by eating buttloads of ritter sports and nice bread afterwards. Omnis were served meat, potatoes, gravy and broccoli. They could have atleast given us some potatoes and broccoli. Or some bread on the side. This was a supermodel portion of food, or dieters food. Well, I’m neither! (We were the only vegetarians there and we got some pretty creepy looks from the oldies. I guess they thought we were dangerous or something, or maybe just weird, vegetarians eat PEOPLE you know :D )

Apart from some baking supplies (we can’t get some of the things we want here in Sweden), awesome danish rye bread, and some tasty danish curry and hotdog ketchup, we also got a small mountain of ritter sports.

ritter!

Oh ritter I love you!
