Lunch with 3 Pink FlaminGoes

Today we had an impromptu gathering of Pink FlaminGoes at my friend Margareta's house.  She invited Vicki and me to lunch at her house where she had fixed a special German dinner.  We had Rouladen which is beef wrapped around pickle, bacon, ham, and some other ingredients all browned and simmered in a special sauce.  You can see it in the upper middle  of the plate below.  It was served with Semmel-knoedel which is a kind of bread dumpling shown on the left side of the plate.  On the far right side of the plate you can see the Goulash.  She also made a gherkin (cucumber) salad which you can barely see in the bowl to the left of the plate.  It was all delicious. 

Vickie (on the left) is just getting ready to enjoy her dinner.  Margareta is on the right.

Vicki and I had to pose for another picture.  You can see the gherkin salad on the left, goulash in the blue bowl, rouladen right behind the goulash and semmel knoebel dumplings in the cornflower corning dish to the left.

 We had a great time telling each other about our summer trips.  Margareta took her RV to Hyder, Alaska and points along the way.  Vicki went to Seattle and took a cruise part way up the Alaska coast to Juneau.  I stayed with the hotter weather and took the RV to Florida as you all know.  All in all, we all had a great summer but it was good to get together again.
