I stayed with a Norwegian family while Mom worked. Nick liked strong cheese and lutefiske. As a six year old I kept up with him helping for helping and Nick treated me like a son. I have not eaten any for years now but remember it fondly when Clara his wife spent the many hours necessary to get it ready. She made a fish cream soup of the leftovers which my wife's cullia myokka (a Finnish fish stew/soup) fills my heart and mind as well as stomach. We don't eat it much because she makes a two gallon pot and there are just the two of us at home now to eat it.


Praise the Lord for full Salvation
Christ Still lives upon the throne
And I know the blood still cleansess
Deeper than the sin has gone
