Today myself and Phog - who is my new best friend from Germany - went on a trip!

http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk85/Katara007/phog/215ea399.jpg

We went to the Irene Dairy. The Irene Dairy Farm is a picturesque gem that nestles between the sprawling cities of Pretoria and Johannesburg. A visit to this old-style, storybook dairy farm is a must. Started in 1895, the Irene Farm has been run the whole time by the van der Byl family who are now on to five generations and has become an iconic landmark in the Gauteng countryside.

I met some very friendly cows

There are also many small ponds on the farm.
I saw some white swans

Today is Phog's birthday party!! I'm really looking forward to it!

Froggy and I helped Phog with the party preparations. The time flew past and before we knew it, it was 14:00!

I wished Phog a Happy Birthday before the other guests arrived.

The other guests followed shortly.

We all sang "Happy Birthday!" in Afrikaans.

This is the words to the song:
"Veels geluk liewe Phog 
omdat jy verjaar!
Mag die Here jou seen
en nog baie jare spaar!"


Then we were all feeling hungry, so Phog presented the 'snacks' and Birthday cake.

Today me, together with Phog and Froggy helped Katara prepare a "Koelkasvla-en-kondensmelktert" (Custard and condensed milk tart).

First we read through the recipe

http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk85/Katara007/phog/caf640fe.jpg

Then we got all the ingredients together

http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk85/Katara007/phog/c17b47c7.jpg

We prepared the custard

http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk85/Katara007/phog/acf2d59f.jpg

Next we chopped up some cherries and added it to the condensed milk and lemon juice

http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk85/Katara007/phog/ac86b2d4.jpg

We lined a dish with some biscuits and then spooned the condensed milk mixture over it

http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk85/Katara007/phog/585b646c.jpg

We then packed another layer of biscuits on top of the mixture

http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk85/Katara007/phog/fe0c5ab1.jpg

Next we added a layer of cooled down custard

http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk85/Katara007/phog/514e1bd3.jpg

We decorated the tart with a layer of cream and some cherries

http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk85/Katara007/phog/d19f9b1a.jpg

We placed the tart in the fridge to set.

Later on we each had a slice.  :) Delicious!
