Read it Gert. I'm still keen ;)

Yup I always wanted to go there too. The cost was prohibitive  though and in the days when  we wanted to go there was no place to stay but turfing a family out of their beds.

You will love the next place .

Oohh, you've piqued my interest Gert. This is a fun thread.
DH wants me to make the sledging biscuits - so that will be a fun job for tomorrow.

If I  can make them easily then anyone else can. I even ate one and they are delish.  To me it was a lot of sugar, something I rarely buy but DH is eating them . He can't believe his luck.

Love that recipe for Pihli JD so time to move on eh? I need to stay over night at least to join up with the owners of the sloop that came to the island today.

I think  I know where they are heading and am hoping they will give me a lift so let you know tomorrow.

You move at an exhausting pace Gert, remember some of us are not so young anymore and need our nana naps even whilst on holidays  ;)

We will be eating Pihli all week - I should have made 1/2 quantity. DH enjoyed it but I think he will get a little sick of it before the week is up  ;D

No harm in trying Kim, I'm sure it won't all get eaten - I might even have some for breakfast.

We are in luck. The folks who on the boat are going to Tahiti. So we will be off soon to tracer north east 1172 nautical miles. In Papeete I will be talking to Qantas to see if we can revive their wonderful "Fiesta Route". Anyone  remember that?

Lots of wonderful food in Tahiti.

Fletcher will be here tomorrow Gert but I don't know that he would like it.  I had some cold for breakfast with fruit salad & it's juice over the top - it has to have added sweetness to it.

When DD2 picked that name I thought, what the?  Soon got used to it though and the only 3 Fletchers I knew at that time were Fletcher Christian, Fletcher Jones and my DD1's dog is named Fletcher as well  ;D.  Since then I have seen more babies named Fletcher.

Yes, I had no idea either until I tasted it Cookie.  As there is no added sugar in the recipe, it definitely needs something sweet on top and I am wondering if it could be used in place of mashed potato/polenta and have a savoury mince or casserole poured over the top.  I will try that later today as I'm going to make Gourmet Beef for some pies today and will use some of the beef mixture to do just that.  Will report back later.
