Here comes the sun...
Apr. 10th, 2008 05:07 pmBless you Finland and your wacky weather. Yesterday, it wasn't only cold, it was also drizzling and it was windy like hell. Today the sun is shinning and the only sad thing is that it must be about 3 degrees instead of the 15 I would love to see.
In happier news, on Tuesday night at the restaurant we all agreed that Finns generally could not care less about food and for them it's more a way of staying alive than art. It's a shame. But then this lunch I looked at my potatoes and I thought "yope, yesterday I had rice, the day before potatoes and the list goes on". The worst part is that you have the choice between simple stripped and boiled potatoes as a whole or the same potatoes cut into quarters after being boiled and oiled up with some herbs. I suppose this explains why the "salad with eggs and chicken" option always runs out before I get to the cafeteria, damn you all with your strange eating habits, who eats at 11am anyway?
Tomorrow I shall make a way better food post, about viili! It's a kind of yogurt that everyone and their mother hates but I quite like it, someone yesterday said that it was slimy and gross... and in fact, if you try to stir it, it gets horribly slimy but very much edible. Actually if you get the lactose-free one, it's just like yogurt but a bit more bitter I suppose.
Anyway, thank god for the sunshine and now I'm off again, yay!
