Fastelavn/ Halloween 2015

This week we are celebrating the Danish festival, Fastelavn (wrong time of year I know, but we are in the southern hemisphere!). Based on some very old traditions, it involves lots of dressing up, black cats, a barrel like a piñata, a decorated whipping branch, oranges and some boller buns to eat with a cute little rhyme to go with the yummy buns (similar to trick or treat). Lots of fun, especially dressing up and studying the atlas. I hope we did our 2 little Danish cherubs justice by celebrating their culture.... and of course Lego!!





 
The best bun dough recipe was found HERE
this was my first attempt at making Boller. The kids thought they were delicious!
The English translation on the right sounds like our version of Halloweens trick or treat.
