Norway November 2006



Autumn forest harvests and orchard picks near home:

  
Chantrelles - direct from the forest floor.  Mmmm, taste like cashews... :)

      
Reaping the rewards of a long morning of picking... and norwegian brown (sweet) cheese.


2-3 hours drive north of Oslo, end Oct 2006
The class trip to  bio-energy farm.   Located at a traditional norwegian farm.

   

   

 Olivia and the Farm Watchdog 1 (his buddy was around the corner)

A typical norwegian farm house - they really live here! :)

   

   
They also had a 800-year old (or something) Viking Sword found on their property about 70 years ago, in a grave.

CABIN TRIP
The trip to the DNT cabin Fjellvang, about 20 minutes by train north of Oslo,  then about 45 minutes walk in.
Nov 10-11 2006

The hut was pretty swish - lights, heating, electric stove, nice beds with fluffy duvets and pillows... no wonder they're so expensive... but comfy!!!

New dessert ideas:  pears baked long with red wine and sugar; pears heated in the fire in foil with After Eights... mmmm...

Happy Knitters... (it was their idea to pose for the picture!)
