Tänään pidetään hauskaa! Mutta ei pidä antaa pään mennä liian pyörälle, siitä saattaa seurata huono olo :)

Of Life, Love and Lust.
"He looked like the poet Shelley after a big night out with Lord Byron."
P.G.Wodehouse
As the Christmas is getting nearer it seems that many are getting totally stressed out. Gifts, foods, cards, cleaning and time running out are a devastating combination. "The value of money is always relative.. - It is defined by it's need."
Agatha Christie: After the Funeral (1953)
(translation by Bean&Crumpet from Finnish)
"Rahan arvo on aina suhteellinen käsite... - Sen määrää tarve."
Agatha Christie: Hautajaisten jälkeen (1956)

Sometimes, in a relationship, you might have to look in where your partner can not see themself."I'll sing you a song that isn't very long. In fact it ends right here."
Clive (David Thewlis) in Mike Leigh's The Short and Curlies
Always when I watch the tv-series A Year in Provence, I think about how nice it would be to take some time off and move somewhere abroad with Bean.. It would be heaven!
One day..

Aina kun katselen Vuosi Provencessa tv-sarjaa, mietin kuinka mukavaa olisi ottaa hieman vapaata ja muuttaa ulkomaille Pavun kanssa... Se olisi taivaallista!

"I suppose I'm one of those fellows my father always warned me against."
In Heavy Weather (1933) by P. G. Wodehouse
Bill: "Peg wants me to barbecue 20 pounds of Mexican sausage. I got half a tank of propane left. You think that's enough? I figure I can top it off with some lighter fluid or something."
Hank: "Bill, you do not want to be mixing and matching your petrochemicals. The Propane Association recommends that you--"
Dale: "It will be fine Bill. Burn is burn."
Bill: ""Burn is burn." I got to remember that."
Kristian Smedsin Tuntematon sotilas: "Are you mad? Are you mader then Brian Mad from Madcastle, are you?"
Gary in Men Behaving Badly

(original quote by Chuck Colson, President Nixon’s aid )
Bean & Crumpet recently joined the Friends of Kiasma. Contemporary art is close to both our hearts, so it was a natural move for us. Also we have a certain member in our family, who is very enthusiastic about this area, so it is nice to share this field with him. We are looking forward to all the action associated with the Friends! :)
Whilst enjoyng my day off (and waiting for my mother who is out and about with somerelatives:)) I had some time to think about our lovely every day life together:We write this blog to our family and friends.
