It may have been a month ago, but in case you wanted to see a peek into the time we spent with friends during Christmas break, here are a few snapshots.
We stayed with some friends from church who invited us to spend a few delightful days with their extended family.
It was a happy time.
From the outside the home may not look very spacious, but it was very well laid out and had enough rooms to easily accomodate all of us. The home was in a sort of 'suburb' outside Brussels.
The last course (before dessert) was a choice of cheese, a side of jam and a glass of wine, it's a course that was introduced to them by the French Belgians.
It's called 'gourmet' and it is all about making your own little dishes on the cooker. It falls into the category of fondue, hobo-pies, etc.
Most of the dishes you can make are a combination of egg, meat and veggies-- like an omelette.
And then out comes the pannekoeken batter for dessert.
We thoroughly enjoyed it.
Delightful winter photos of your Christmas in Belgium and your stay in Broadstairs! Interesting architectural contrasts between Belgium and England. The make your own meal looks yummy and fun! Thanks so much for sharing the photos!
