Oksana's Birthday at Aroma

We feted Oskana on her birthday. This was our second annual Oksana birthday celebration. Those present were, from left to right, George, Susan, Jack, Christine, the Birthday Girl, and Andrea.

Wonderful Indian food at the Aroma restaurant near GW! I always choose the Vegetarian platter with its delightful assortment of my favorite dishes (seen above).

Norwegian Waffles at the Melonis

I bought a Norwegian waffle iron and a new tradition was born at our house. Christian and Colin adore these waffles and always demand them for breakfast when they sleep over.

Andrea prepares the waffle batter.

Andrea pours the batter on the waffle iron.

The Norwegian waffle is made up of five hearts.

You can eat them with your hands or with a knife and fork.

Christian is ready to spread strawberry jam on his waffle.

Colin is ready to dig in. "Hurry up! Take the photo! I'm starving!"
