She will be wax in your hands

 In the beginning of our story, there - skin to skin, in the gleam of candles - we listened in silence..

From what I've seen, you're magnificent
You fight evil with all you do
Your every act is spectacular
It makes me lay here and love you

From what I hear, you are generous
You make sunshine and glory too
When you walk in things go luminous
It makes me lay here and love you

From what I know, you're terrified

You have mistrust running through you
Your smile is hiding something hurtful
It makes me lay here and love you

It makes me lay here and love you
I'm filled with violet and red and blue
I have a feeling from what I do
That you might lay there and love me too

Lay and Love by Bonnie 'Prince' Billy

You were, were you?

Pictured above our latest treat: wheat baguette, which recipe we acquired from Finnish food and wine magazine Glorian ruoka&viini. Even though it takes two days from start to finish to make it, it's absolutely worth that effort..

-----

Kuvassa viime aikojen suosikkiherkkumme:vehnäpatonki, jonka reseptin poimimme Glorian ruoka&viini lehdestä. Vaikka kaiken kaikkiaan leivän alusta loppuun saamiseen meneekin kaksi vuorokautta, on se täysin vaivan arvoista..

Have you made up your mind?

Two women, well past middle age, discuss about men.

Woman 1: "But you've got that lovely Pentti."

Woman 2: "Yes, he is lovely, isn't he? Like yesterday, he baked one and half litres pulla dough, even with out asking."

-------

Kaksi keski-iän ylittänyttä naista, keskustelevat miehistä.

Nainen 1: "Mutta sullahan on se ihana Pentti."

Nainen 2: "Niin, on se kyllä ihana. Eilenkin se leipoi puolentoista litran pullataikinan, ihan pyytämättä."

Can't you see I want to kiss her?

Now, when our fantastic trip to Barcelona is behind us, it was time to decide, where to head out this summer..

So, it's going to be two weeks in Berlin. Ich bin ein Berliner.

--------

Nyt, kun upea Barcelonan matkamme on jo takanapäin, oli aika miettiä, minne kesällä suuntaamme.. 

Tiedossa siis kaksi viikkoa Berliinissä. Ich bin ein Berliner.

The saddest form of eating is eating while walking.

Surullisin syömisen muoto on kävellessä syöminen.

You hunted high and low

Little Bean didn't want to call either of his newts by a wrong name, so he
named them both as Pat and Pat.

----

Pieni Papu ei halunnut erehtyä kutsumaan kumpaakaan vesiliskoaan väärällä
nimellä, joten hän antoi niille nimeksi Patti ja Patti.
