Up on a hill, just outside of our village, sits the Oberwil Shützenhaus. The Shützenhaus is the home of the rifle club. It has a 300 meter rifle range where everyone can fulfill their annual military qualification obligation. Almost two years ago, the rifle club had quite a bit of the building re-modeled and added a large, modern kitchen and now it can be rented for functions and parties. Since New Year's Eve 2000, Herbert and I have joined some of our friends there to celebrate the New Year. The first two years that we went, we all had Chinese fondue. (Thinly sliced meat dipped in a hot broth.) Last year, Herbert and our friends Bumsi and René decided to cook for all of us. They made a gourmet style dinner that was unbelievably good. This year, someone requested that they make a Thai or Indian dinner. They chose Indian and it was delicious. But, it was also a lot of work for them. Herbert did some prep work the evening before and the three guys started cooking early in the afternoon of the 31st. In the end, Natacha, her friend Irene, Fredu and I all ended up helping out. We decided that next years menu would be simpler. |
