AEbleskivers



When our daughter Cheryl lived in Utah while her husband Jon was on his mission, she became friends with a great guy named Rob. Long story short, Rob broke up with his girlfriend Mindy and she moved to San Diego. Rob was heartbroken and couldn't believe she actually left and moved on with her life. He whined at Cheryl long enough that she told him that if he loved her that he needed to go after her. Rob told Cheryl that he couldn't do that because he had no where to live and no job in San Diego. Cheryl told him that her parents would take him in - and we did! He spent a few months with us and we fell in love with him. Rob served his mission in the Santa Barbara area of California which is near Solvang, a little Danish community. Kent and I were taking a trip up there and Rob told us that we had to try the AEbleskivers there. We did and we fell in love with them. They are little ball-like pancakes that you cook in a special AEbleskiver pan. We bought a couple of the pans and brought them home with us and it became our Sunday nght tradition to have friends and family over for AEbleskivers while Rob lived with us. While Cheryl was here visiting recently, we had dinner with Rob and Mindy (yes, he won her heart back and they got married!) We surprised them with an AEbleskiver pan and made them for dessert. What a great reunion for all of us!
