Way to be bold with the Vietnamese hotsauce! Just popped over from Nurit’s blog and thought I’d say hello. I know what you mean about the tongue twisting. I’ve been married to a Belgian going on 15 years now and, while my Flemish is pretty good now, we had our share of comedy the first few years we were married, too. Love your writing. I’ll be back!

Woo! Thanks Sussie! It’s so hard to spell out that soft d sound phonetically and simply. It comes out kind of a cross between a “th” and an “L” sound (course it could be that Rasmus is teaching me a lazy-tongue way of saying it hahaha), but it’s still not as hard as that back of the throat r thing that i still haven’t gotten a hang of. The next thing I plan on trying to make is a Drømmekage from that lovely book that you gave me :) It makes me drooooool!

Oh Kelly, you really are an impressing woman. But I’m afraid that if you pronounce it ‘Bic-sa-mel’ people would think you meant bechamel (you know the white sauce in lasagne)… And that’s not quite the same, heh? My advice to you is therefore to pronounce it ‘Bic-sa-math’. Or something like that ;0). Or you could also ask Rasmus to order the biksemad to avoid being served a portion of bechamel…? No, that’s not fun. Besides… I’m looking VERY much forward to seeing you here in Copenhagen soon. Both of you. Knus!

Looks fantastic! I had to laugh at the beginning story though. At my house it is a French and an American speaking in their native tongues and sometimes I have snorted my coffee many times after hearing my husband butcher French :)
