Bat Lasagna
Today we celebrated my friend Melissa’s 26th birthday with a fondue party! All 19 friends were asked to bring some item that can either be dipped in a cheese or chocolate fondue. With two AMAZING homemade fondue recipes simmering in crock-pots we gathered around two round tables each with a lazy-susan in the middle. Our stomachs were filled with delicious veggies, breads, fruits, and treats. This was defiantly my favourite party I have had so far! Thanks for giving us a reason to have fun Melissa!
Our table began to have some quite random conversations, which created a great amount of laughter. Of course when one table begins to laugh the other table listens up to see what is going on, but often not at the beginning of conversations. I bet you’ve done this before. So at one point one of the guests said that she remembers her mom only cooking lasagna for her and her siblings when someone had died. When our conversation ceased, a guy from the other table told a story about how he attended a village church and when the service was finished they killed a large amount of bats that had been flying around.
Someone from our table said, “I guess you could make lasagna”. Everyone at our table laughed and so did the other table. After a second I thought about it and realized that we were likely laughing for two different reasons. They were thinking of lasagna made with bat meat and we were thinking that something died so it’s cause to make lasagna.
After explaining why we were laughing we all realized that the idea of bat lasagna was not really that repulsive to any of us, since many of us have actually eaten bat! We laughed again and started telling stories of the challenges of eating bat meat.
mmm :) We did a fondue party for Bible Study once. LOVED it. so good, but it can make you feel sooo sick, especially if you play Just Dance afterwards :P
