Norway Day 15

For Family Home Evening we decided to have a barbeque at Frogner Park.
The Norwegians have this neat little idea for BBQing anywhere:
basically a disposable grill. Brickets in an aluminum pan with a little grill grid to go on top. They even have specially designated trash bins for the hot pans when you are done with them. Kind of handy when you want to eat warm food at the park. Much easier than bringing your own big grill or finding one available where you are at the park.
Norwegians eat their hotdogs in Lumpa bread. It's kind of like a potato tortilla. They usually also add potato salad to their dogs. (My kids aren't super fond of potato salad. So they skipped that part.) Pretty tasty.

  1. Was the grass already dead, or did you make a new dead spot with the grill?

    Speaking of dead grass--the scorch mark in the lawn from the thermite is still as dead as it was the day after we lit the thermite.

  2. They used to have disposable grills like that here in the states - maybe there's some kind of environmental flaw in them and they did away with them. Or maybe we just don't notice them anymore!

    But your picnic looks like lots of fun.

  3. Look how much fun you guys are having -- without me! No worries, I'll survive. Betsy and the kinders will be here later this summer and Hester and Andy (hehe) will be here for Christmas.
