Katie's Mid-West Birthday Party ...

Right here in Cape Town I went to a Mid-West Ohio-ish birthday party to celebrate with Katie ...

I lived in Ohio for 4 1/2 years and had never eaten or made buck-eyes ... the national something-or-other of Ohio! Here is my first attempt ... (in South Africa, no less)

(you're not meant to keep the cocktail sticks in them!)

And here's Katie with the Buckeyes which were whisked away for special keeping ...


The party was great ... we all had to wear bandanas (the first time I've ever got one to sit properly on my head!!)


Katie's explaining the different dishes ... all with family connections ...





And we sat on hay and ate ...
