St George's Day

Baaaaaa...

For Gergiofden (6th May) each family kills a lamb in remembrance of St Gorge slaying the evil dragon.

Quote of the day: "Shall we warm up the brain and the liver for dinner?"

The neighbours gave us part of the brain and the liver to say thank you for helping out with skinning and dismembering the lamb.

That evening after gardening we were short on time so for Raphael's dinner we prepared some mashed brain and liver with a bit of hot water and crushed bread. He absolutely loved it.  As usual the spoon was chasing his mouth as he played with toy after toy on his eating chair. And as usual some of the meal landed on his bib.

The funniest thing is that when we pulled the bib off Rafski's head he had pieces of liver and brain all over his face and hair. It was a scene straight out of Pulp Fiction. We had to wash him and pick out the pieces one by one before putting him to bed.

  1. We celebrated St George's Day with a pork pie and a fight! your liver and brain fest sounds way more fun - a bit like a Bulgarian zombie movie!
