The 2010 Queensland Multicultural
Festival was a big day out, the stall was
busy selling ice cream cones, coffee
and pastries all day. Thank you to
visitors, Vikings and volunteers. A lot of
people came around to say Goddag to
our Vikings and have a quick chat. A
special thank you to the organisers for
helping with handling our ice cream
display freezer weighing almost half a
tonne. It will be exciting to see the final
result.
The festival kicked off our busy season
and there are lots of activities planned
for the next couple of months. Make
sure you put a cross in your calendar to
join us for the Christmas fun!
What’s on at the Danish Club?
Café Danmark
Christmas markets start
22 October 2010
from 6 pm
Come in and try our tasty ‘smørrebrød’: the menu varies from time to time, but you’ll
often find ‘rullepølse’ (spicy rolled pork), smoked salmon, roast beef, pate, roast pork
and ‘Esrom’ cheese. And yummy hot dogs. The bar is stocked with genuine Tuborg
and Carlsberg beer brewed in Denmark as well as your favourite Australian beers. If
you prefer a glass of wine with your food, we have a good variety of whites and reds
on offer.
It’s also an opportunity to buy delicious Danish pastries, ryebread and other specialty
breads and organic biscuits direct from Britt’s Danish Delights. Tea is back with
smallgoods and quality meats from Flemming, the Danish butcher at Woolloongabba,
as well as her own goodies including remoulade and ‘hønsesalat’. It’s a good idea to
order in advance and pick up at the café.

Julesmåkagebagning
Gudrun Tvede viser børnene (og andre, der heller ikke har bagt i mange år), hvordan man
bager skønne danske julesmåkager. Hvadenten det er vanillekranse, klejner, finsk brød eller
kagenisser, det bliver bare lækkert.
Julestue
Kom igang med julepynten sammen med børnene, der skal klippes og klistres stjerner og
julehjerter eller fantasidyr til at komme på juletræet. Sidste år lavede vi appelsiner med
nelliker og flotte sløjfer og forgyldte grankogler.
Juletræspyntning
Kan I huske det flotte juletræ sidste år? Det skal pyntes igen fra top til fod og være klar
til julefesterne i november og december for både den norske og schweiziske klub, inden det
bliver vores egen tur 11. december 2010. Julemanden kommer kun, hvis træet stråler!
Julesange
Hvis I endnu ikke er kommet i julestemning, kan I glæde jer til ‘KUPALEJA’, som underholder
med sang og musik for børn og voksne. Syng med, deltag i sanglegene, det er sjovt!
Tilmelding og praktiske detaljer
Alle juleaktiviteterne er gratis. Tilmelding til Lone Schmidt ([email protected])
eller 33592026.
Baren sælger juice og sodavand, køkkenet flyttes ud i gården, hvor vi eventuelt kan servere

Dansk legegruppe
Hver fredag 9.30-11.30
36 Austin St, Newstead
1. søndag i måneden 10-12
(find os på Facebook)
Vi mødes hver fredag og den 1.
søndag i måneden for at snakke og
lege sammen på dansk. Da vores lille
faste gruppe svinger lidt i deltagere pga
ferier, oftest til Danmark og arbejde mv,
vil vi meget gerne se flere medlemmer.
Vi tror trods alt det gavner børnene at
mødes og lege samt høre, at vi alle taler
dansk.
Vi starter normalt med fri leg og ca kl 11
sidder vi alle omkring et bord og spiser
vores medbragte mad – og slutter gerne
dagen med nogle danske børnesange.
Med venlig hilsen

Cafe Danmark will be particularly busy
with Christmas markets and we need all

Søndag den 31. oktober er dagen for Halloween – eller Allehelgensaften om man vil. Halloween
er oprindeligt en gammel keltisk højtid. En tradition som med tiden blandt andet har udviklet
sig til en populær begivenhed i USA og har de seneste år fundet indpas og stigende popularitet
i Danmark. Halloween er festtid med gys, spøgelseshistorier, skræmmende udklædninger og
græskarlamper med lys. Netop lamperne udskåret i græskar og deres orange farve er blevet et
synonym og symbol på Halloween.
SPØGELSESKYS
De små marengskager er måske i virkeligheden mere søde og nuttede end uhyggelige at se på.
Det gælder for øvrigt også smagen. Men det passer alt sammen meget godt ind i Halloweens
ånd, som netop er spøgelser og gys – med et glimt i øjet.
Søde sprøde spøgelser
(20 stk.)
3 past. æggehvider
225 g sukker
100 g ODENSE Hvid Chokolade
200 g ODENSE Ren Rå Marcipan
Små sølvkugler
Pisk æggehviderne luftige og
stive. Drys sukkeret i lidt af
gangen, mens der piskes og pisk
til marengsen er sej.
Hak chokoladen og vend den i
marengs-blandingen.
Skær marcipanen i 20 skiver og
læg dem på en bageplade med
bagepapir.
Fyld marengsen i en plastpose
(eller en sprøjtepose) og klip et
hjørne af. Sprøjt marengsen ud
på marcipanen som en spiral, der
bliver tyndere.
Sæt 2 sølvkugler på som øjne.
Bag spøgelserne ved 120° C i ca.
45 min. Lad dem køle af 5 min.
indende flyttes.
Tip: Op til 1 uges holdbarhed i
kagedåse
