Carina and I have been eating quite a lot of indian and thai-food since we moved in together, mixed in with the occasional norwegian dish of course.
For the occation of us having been together for 1 year and 4 months this sunday, we decided to make a meal that was a bit out of the ordinary. This meant getting some real steak or beef instead of the chicken and pork we usually have, so after searching MatPrat.no for some ideas on what to make we decided to go with the Beef and Cashewnuts. It was the perfect blend of the south-pacific without beeing spicy and still having a homely feel. In addition to the exotic fruitsalad and potatochips specified in the recipie we made a cold-stirred Peppergravy from Toro, some fried onions and sugarglaced broccoli, just because we like those a lot.
All in all it tasted absolutely wonderful! The fruit-salad was a bit tame, but everything was so different from what we usually eat, especially the cold-stirred pepper gravy, so the meal tasted perfectly to balance out our regular dinners. We absolutely got to have it again! ... in a while of course, we mustn't ruin it by having it too often :-)

Woops. It seems like the entire summer has passed by me and I haven't even had the time to blog once! Not that there has been a lot to write about since we got back from Rome anyways, as I've mostly only been working close to full-time and just relaxing in our apartment on my few days off. Few of the things on my ToDo list for the summer has been achieved as well, but stuff like editing video from Australia and sorting mp3's isn't really time-critical to get done so I'll just put it off until next summer or something :-)
