Here's what the innards of the fridge look like (plus they have another fridge and freezer in the pantry). We eat a loooot of dairy product here. Some of the milk is straight from the cow at a nearby farm! And quite a bit of meat, too-- the raise a lot of it themselves. And, yes, they eat horse. We've been promised a horse meal while we're still here...! Hehehehhhh
Last night we had fiskur (fish) and potatoes! Both were boiled. You put em on your plate with butter & mash em all together, and it sho' is delicious!
We use sooooo much cream here. Cream with your milk, cream with your yogurt, whipped cream... Stephen and I couldn't believe how much had been used up in the span of a few days! But, mmmmm, it's good.
They have this lactose free thick milk stuff we use at this house because the youngest has issues with lactose in regular milk. It's good, though! And Skyr is the traditional Icelandic yogurt-- similar to Greek yogurt.
They have this crazy-person stove that you have to jab with your finger to turn on or adjust heat because it's got digital controls. Kinda cool, though...
They have a crazy-person utensil rack in their dishwasher, too! It's kind of nice having all the utensils separated all apart from each other, but also a semi-hassle.
Stephen steals the iPad and takes a shot of the crazy person in the kitchen!
I made a pretend snack meal, and made Stephen model. We have these midday snacks in between the main meals. They're not casual, though-- they're like clockwork. [&STEPHEN, stop licking my leg while I'm typing!!] when you wake up, breakfast, 10am is coffee break, 12pm is lunch, 4pm is snack and coffee, 7pm is dinner. And snacks usually have bread, cheese, assorted meats and vegetables, butter, coffee, sometimes sweets.
Weeeell! That's all for now :D
Hope you have a good day--we're off to go fix some barn door thresholds..!
