Vastlapäev

This morning I went outside and D followed me, went outside in her night clothes and started cycling with my bike. I forgot something and went back in the then closed the middle door, the one that closes and needs a key for opening. I was ready to leave and then D asked whether I locked the door. Of course! Good I was not too quick leaving. I later heard thet C also locked herself out today, again and then came to our house to visit N.

Today is vastlapäev. Me and the Hungarian had agreed to make pea soup and I had agreed to make bread and we assumed the English will make pancakes. Got home and the English asked: "So are we having soup and pancakes?" And bread!


Yeast was fast and soon I had lost of dough, so I could make buns for vastlakukkel and also a kringel with cinnamon.

D was surprised that so many peas go into the pea soup:) Yes it is a pea soup!

When the buns came out of oven, some were eaten, because nobody knew what is vastlakukkel and I did not tell them, it was enough anyway. All the time when I was making bread and soup, E taught D  how to make pancakes (so the English did not make any pancakes!). And as she does not know how to make a plait, a tutorial was given with dough.

D said she would eat the bread with kimchi, a fermented Korean cabbage. And she put the cinnamon kringel into the pea soup like a roll! At this point, me and E, the Hungarian started laughing. D also called kringel "the worm bread".
