Believe it if you want to, but we had a white christmas in Hawaii. It is without doubt I say that the beautiful, white beaches of Hawaii, counts as "White christmas" just as snow represents a "white christmas". We started of with a great breakfast this morning, with salmon, scrambled eggs, roast beef, tuna salad and home-made "rundstykker"! It was amazing.
Then me and Kane Yoshida, a german friend, went for a jog around Waikiki just to check the christmas status, and I also stepped down on the beach so that I could tell people that I was chilling on the beach on christmas eve. Then it was home for some "porrage"? that Marianne's mom sent us from Norway, and the christmas spirit aroused in all of us! Why shouldn't it? We had a white christmas, christmas tree - no star, but we found a loop that looked neat, and porrage and the turkey was just chilling with some stuffing shoved in his ass - yummie!
As the turkey was ready, the day stepped into its climax! THE FOOD! It was so good, we had a 19 pounds turkey, for 4 people (it's about 8.5 kg) so it was just enough... Hey, I was hungry, ok. And as Kenny (a guy visiting Marianne and Merethe) said when I asked "How do we know the turkey is done?", he answered "It's just as with the ladies, when the turkey legs loosen up and spreads, it is ready." My lesson was learned.
Then we made some ricecream and strawberry sauce with it, it was top notch! And now I am way to tired to write more! Enjoy the pictures - I will upload christmas pictures on both Facebook and on www.picasaweb.com/tollaas ! ENJOY the rest of 2007! Update follows in days as Vegard arrives...

Hei Mads, ja dette så jo virkelig bra ut, juletre og greier, det var ikke værst altså. Så bra at du hadde det fint denne dagen. Det så virkelig ut som dere koste dere. Angående hvit jul, så kan jo du skryte av at du har hatt det du da iår, det kan ikke de som er hjemme i Ålesund iallefall. De hadde bare god bakoversveis hele gjengen tenker jeg.
Du må kose deg videre så skal jeg se om jeg kan sende noe spennende til deg. Vi snakkes.
hei
hei mads. måtte bare skrive hei først så det var meg tante kristin eller tante kikki som du kalte meg når du var liten.ja ja. har såvidt vært innpå bloggen din og lest og det var jo morsomt og litt rart at du er sålangt borte. her i ålesun regner det idag og vi sitter i sofaen og sløgger... ser på fotball. liverpool idag. jonas ligger ved siden av meg her og slever, akkurat som du gjorde når du var baby....
cecilie og sebastian var oppom her isted. de er hos faren i julen og kommer opp igjen imorgen. jaja. vi snakkes mads... skal gå ofte inn på siden din nå når jeg har adressen. skal vise den til cecilie og sebastian også. klem fra tante kristin & co.
sleva naar e va baby? Sleva ikke e til e va 5 aar da ? :D haha... hvor skal dere feire nyaaret i aar da? : )
det samme sp0rsmaalet for deg, tante pose.. eller blir det sydney paa dere? :)
Vi snakkes! Koslig at dere leser : )
Hei igjen Mads, jo da med oss blir det selvfølgelig Sydney. Det skal bli skikkelig kjekt, tror de første rakettene går opp kl 21 så dette blir bra vet du. Vi skal reise inn tidlig for å få oss en plass i parken like ved broa så vi får full oversikt. Dette blir en nyttårsaften vi sent vil glemme, det er jeg helt sikker på.
Du da, skal være sammen med Vegard, men hva skal dere finne på?
Nei det er et godt sp0rsmaal... Jeg faar se hva vi finner paa.. Er snakk om at hele Waikiki (hovedomraadet der jeg bor) stenges av for trafikk og der er et saakalt "block party" som betyr at det er en slags gigantisk fest i gatene eller noe sant..
Porridge -porridge my friend !!
ja e viste igrunn e hadde skreve det feil!! :)
men fant ikke det i den ordlista e bruka - paa internett vel og merke, saa den er ikke helt topp... saa det var et wild guess i den stavelsen der :) men da har e d til neste gang :)
Men vet du hva "do porridge" betyr? Det betyr å sitte inne i fengsel altså, herregud her er det bare å holde tunga rett i munnen.....
Du får iallefall kose deg på nyttårsaften sammen med Vegard, dere får det sikkert kjekt uansett. Big party hørtes jo ikke så værst ut da, det skal jo feires at vi skal inn i ett nytt år og at man kan legge det gamle året bak oss. Vi snakkes Mads.
HY ! MADS,
YOU CERTAINLY HAVE LAUNCHED INTO THE FESTIVE SEASON WITH MANY CELEBRATORY ACTIVITIES,SOME EXERCISE TO KEEP YOU IN FINE TRIM AND WITH 'MULTI-KILOS' OF STAMINA, WHICH YOU WILL CERTAINLY NEED WHILE YOU, VEGARD AND ALL YOUR OTHER FRIENDS ARE SURE TO EXPEND DOING THE MAMMOTH ROUNDS OF PARTYING WELL INTO THE NEW YEAR. BRAVO! OVER THE PAST FEW DAYS,WE, AT A MUCH LOWER LEVEL OFCOURSE, HAVE ALSO INDULGED OURSELVES VERY ENJOYABLY WHICH EXCLUDED, SALSAING, PASO DOBLEING, CALYPSOING, HULA-HOOING, ETC.ETC. ALTHOUGH MORE THAN ADEQUATELY COMPENSATED AND REPLACED BY VERY GOOD COMPANY, INTERESTING AND JOLLY CONVERSATION FUELLED BY A CONTINUOUS FLOW OF APERITIFS, COCKTAILS, WINES ETC. AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST, VARIED MENUS OF DELICIOUS FOOD.SOME TIME WAS SPENT WITH GUIDA, VINCE, HIS PARENTS AND FRIENDS WHO CONTRIBUTED IN NO SMALL DEGREE TO THE FUN. WHILE THERE, I CONVEYED YOUR SEASON'S GREETINGS TO G & V WHO THANKED AND RECIPROCATED EQUALLY WARM GREETINGS IN RETURN. I ALSO FOUND THE TIME, WITH HER, TO HAVE A LOOK AT YOUR AND JONATAN'S UPDATED 'FACEBOOK' ENTRIES WHICH I WAS VERY PLEASED TO VIEW. AS A RESULT, IT IS APPROPRIATE FOR ME TO ALTER THE SAYING " LIKE GRANDFATHER, LIKE GRANDSON TO GRANDSONS"!! THIS YEAR I SENT IDENTICAL SEASON'S GREETINGS TO YOUR FATHER , FAMILY IN THE UK AND AUSTRALIA TO CONVEY OUR WISHES TO ALL MEMBERS OF FAMILY, RELATIVES AND FRIENDS BUT HAVING DONE SO I PREFER NOT TO REMEMBER WHICH OF THEM DID NOT RESPOND !?
I REGRET MISSING YOUR 'PHONE CALL ON 24.12. AND THE REASON BEING IS THAT WE WERE OUT DOING VITALLY ESSENTIAL LAST MINUTE TASKS BEFORE THE HOLIDAY BREAK. NOTWITHSTANDING, THERE ARE SURE TO BE MANY FUTURE OPPORTUNITIES AND ONCE I HAVE CONNECTED/SET-UP THE MICROSOFT LIFECAM VX 1000,ONE OF THE CHRISTMAS PRESENTS I RECEIVED, FUTURE PHONE-CHATS COULD BE IN AUDIO/VIDEO MODE.AS YOU KNOW THE TIME HERE IS 10 HOURS AHEAD OF YOU UNTIL THE LAST SUNDAY IN MARCH - 30.3.08.
HAR DET BRA OG VELDIG GODT JUL !
OG GODT NYTT AAR !
