Rice

It's been just over a week since we arrived in Denmark, and we hadn't had any rice at home (we've eaten at a neighborhood Chinese restaurant once), and we've all been craving for it - the kids love pasta, but even they were getting tired of it!

So I went to the local supermarket and found what looked like short-grain rice - the kind we normally eat as Japanese. "Grotris"?? It was not on my Danish-English Dictionary app on my phone, but I trusted my judgement.

Now the big challenge is, can I cook rice in an IKEA pot?? Did a little research on the internet, and followed. If the rice didn't come out well, there was no backup plan so I was a bit nervous. But thankfully it came out great. Ah, so good to have rice again!

We didn't do much today, but the kids must have been so tired - they took a FOUR HOUR long nap this afternoon. It was such as long nap that Mio was even confused when she woke up and thought it was morning again (it must be confusing as she hasn't seen much "darkness" since we got here as it doesn't get dark until very late and it gets bright early in the morning).

Wonder what we are going to do tomorrow...
