We had the 1st annual DNH raclette as our team Christmas lunch today.
Raclette!

Cook! Cook! Where’s my Hasenpfeffer?
… close enough.
Getting very excited about the cheese
We’re getting the child his own girolle for Christmas. He’s going to flip. He loves Tete de moine cheese. Bet you didn’t know that in la Suisse, some cheeses require infrastructure.
When you really need a tartare fix at 2am
Stop the presses! There is a beef tartare vending machine at the Morges train station. A seasoned. Raw. Beef. Vending. Machine.
God bless the Swiss and their quirky ways.
Merry Swissmass
Katy and I had some people over for drinks and nibbles. We had work friends, school friends and neighbours over for a little afternoon informal get together that included 2.5l of homemade mulled wine, 1.5l of mulled apple juice, Katy’s homemade mincemeat pies and tons of cheese, veg and dips. All totaled, we were 18 adults and 12 kids. Impressive for our flat.
Behold, the cheese!
Jeminie was over for the weekend. I think she could learn to live in Switzerland, considering that she pretty much said “this is heaven” at every meal :) She liked the Swiss wine, the charcuterie, the raclette (omg did she love the raclette!) and the chasse. I think we have a convert.

Crappy mobile camera, but ambiance nonetheless.
Birthday pre-Christmas lunch
We’re celebrating Bean’s birthday and having an early Christmas meal while Nana’s here. We had turkey, ham, stuffed guinea fowl legs, braised red cabbage, brussels, spaetzli, roasted potatoes and gravy.
