We take an occasional trip downtown to eat noon lunch at the Sons of Norway lodge, and today we ran into quite a large crowd. I hadn’t been paying attention and missed this: it’s the 200th anniversary of the first boatload of Norwegians arriving to our region. Anyway, the menu was a bit different today but good. I ordered a smorbrod sandwich, a bowl of rommegrot, and a Scandinavian almond bar. Tasty! Mary took piece of apple/rhubarb pie, too.
