The long awaited lunch at my house 13-03-2005

One day somebody remembered from our university group of girls that, as most of us didn’t have enough money to go to last-year trip abroad with all those who had entered university at the same time as us, we should do our own last-year trip. Our trip would consist of sleeping over each others house and getting to know different parts of Portugal. So after a wonderful lunch at Ana’s house near Torres Novas (you can see the maps below if you are interested), it was my turn to invite the girls and, of course, their boyfriends to my parent’s house for a lunch with some South-African dishes: Boerewors (Farmers sausage), Mealie Pup (Cornmeal mush), Melktert (dessert), Chessecake and Muffings!

Unfortunately not everybody was able to join us, but if they ever want to drop by they are very welcomed! The same goes for Tasquinhas (type of a gastronomic fair in which all the small villages around Rio Maior compete with each other, during a week, with their traditional dishes and in the end the one with better decoration and food wins the 1st place), as only Ana, Henrique, Fatima, Rui, Nuno and Marina joined me!

I hope everybody enjoyed the night and day as much as I did and lets see if we meet once again very soon!
