Guest blogger - cos I am too Slack - Welcome Mr Ross Di Blasio



Ha-lamb or la-ham, this is what we ate for New Years Eve dinner twas very delicious especially the onion wrapped in smoked bacon with rosemary. This ha-lamb was quite a weird cut of meat, I think it comes off the sheeps back, You definitely can't buy it at Coles (Australian Super-Market) it was salty and had a nice crispy skin and boy was it tender.



The meal was so good Amma didn't even realise a photo was being taken. Amma is awesome.



Ok jumping back a few days but probably just one day on Olga's birthday she was Christened, this was so we can get married in the local church next July, anyways this is Olga and her Godparents. They didn't think it was a good idea for her future husband to be her Godfather, it is a bit weird...it is also a little bit Icelandic.


Back to New Years Eve night, the snow just kept on falling and falling, it is a very funny site watching Olga try to catch snow flakes in her mouth.... she is special? Has anyone tried to make a lifesize snowman, well it is very hard and it kept falling apart. So it was much easier to build a head, Sigga supplied the carrot and BROCCOLI ? and we made the most of it. We also made snow-angels and threw snowballs and I wrote my name in the snow, which was extremely difficult after several drinks, it was not very legible.



The beautiful snow covered Saudarkrokur.


OK and this is our very own fireworks i think it was called Mrs long knickers. Just watch the Video

Thankyou and goodnight
Ross

Those fireworks are awesome. It's satisfying how loud they are up close like you can get there.

Jason and I have been discussing you and decided that you are probably a 2 finger typer, since you are of relatively few words. Is this true?

That priest looks quite hot! Unexpectedly young. I'm sure when I was in s'krokur, the priest was a youngish man. Memory doesn't quite serve me however.

Smoked icelandic lamb is the sweetest meat in the world. Sweet as in awesome. I love it.

Nice post dude, good job.

You're right, two fingers - however, he is a man of few words in real life, too.
Ross says: Quality, not quantity.

That video is great, hey? I think videos of fireworks are better when they're right above your head!
