Hilary, and Assorted Afrikaners... I just contacted the world renowned Afrikaans linguist, Professor Imaa Nutcase, in order to get an exact translation of your message. HE said (paraphrasing), "This is an invitation for all readers of her cleverly worded message to dine a home cooked meal at the lady's (That's YOU, Hilary) home tonite." It appears she's expecting quite a crowd!" <grinning, ducking & running> WOWIE! Thanks for the dinner invitation - I"m gonna make my plane reservations right now! See ya tonite.... and please cook my steak med. rare!
