and dinner was potatoes with cheese fondue kind of dish...pretty good and they had pork saussages and i had veg saussage (soya).. :) and a salad of course...
then she got out the dessert she d made specially..showed us the recipe..looked complicated...it was yum ! slathered in some king of raspberry+strawberry+blueberry syrup....
by then the kids were feasting on the chocolate box...and we all tasted some..and then we had some " Limonade" which is btw not lemonade. :D its like limca except much lesser fizz. its soda with lime in it.
and then we all played card games with the kids...."dringo" some lame game but they loved it..lol:) there is a buzzer to hit..so obvi they were on a high....

We can be nice if we try, but to them the niceties come naturally. We're more the sort to let people take care of themselves?
