Thread: Family Dinner Night WHO: The Gardners (Tora, Guy, Bjorn, Hilde, Astrid and Gunnar) WHEN: 4/4 WHERE: Brooklyn RATING: PG SUMMARY: The Gardners share a family meal. NOTES: Feel free to tag in whenever.
Tora found it hard to find family time when her whole family lived on school campus. They still had the old Brooklyn brownstone that she and Guy had renovated (with some help from Kyle and Bea) before the twins were born. And when they did not have a renter in there, she liked to bring the family down on weekends to have time together. Easter weekend was the perfect excuse to bring the family together and have her children all in one place to enjoy and shower with affection.
The larger meal would, of course, come the next day, but for now, she was preparing a hearty fish stew. She had called for the children and her husband to come down to the dining room. The food would be finished soon enough. "Gunnar, my little angel," she called out in her native tongue. "Come help your mother with serving the food." The boy was her youngest, her baby, and she had a bad habit of trying to keep him close to her apron strings. It was hard enough that he was in a high school program now. She wasn't ready to let go.
