Bun Day

Yesterday was Bun Monday, or Shrove Monday, I'm not sure of the English translation - if there even is one LOL Anyway, on this day, the Monday 7 weeks before Easter, Icelander's stuff themselves with buns filled with jelly and whipped cream and topped with frosting. We eat meatballs or fishballs for dinner - and basically it's a day about buns :)I made buns on Sunday and when we got home yesterday we filled them with raspberry jam and whipped cream and made frosting for the top. I prefer brown chocolate frosting, but the girls insisted on different colors. Matthildur wanted green frosting and Lovisa wanted pink frosting - and, of course, they got pink and green :)
