Well the World champpionships have started! And in honor of that I'l show some highlights from previous year. And guess what? Their electrolux vacuum cleaner goalie continues this year. It's a clear victory, man.
You'd be surprised by variety! First thing that comes in mind is how simple the food is, but if you dig deeper there are fish dishes worthy of kings and large variety of pastries. Full list here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finnish_cuisine Karelian pastries are one of the most iconic of Finnish foods. LeipƤjuusto (cheese bread) Hernekeitto (pea soup) might not look like much, but it's really good. Laskiaispullat, I love these Runebergintorttu Salmiakki Koskenkorva "Kossu" viina (The most Finnish Vodka) Koskenkorva Salmiakki "Salmari" (I like to describe it as -quoting Russian mafia- The Black Death) Also:
Deadtrap.. you have just made me hungry for Finnish food.. I wonder if there's any Finnish food stores here in Edmonton. The only Scandinavian food here is Swedish.. Unfortunately
Well if you go to Japan, Singapore, Spain or Greece you will find allot of Finnish food stores. Last three because we tend to travel there the most and Japan because they like us for some reason.
Monty Python go! Also a very important video about how to drink in Finland because that is the national sport there. (Warning evil Swedish language in this video.)
Do you really think that is my intentions? I wouldn't even harm a fly. No.. I have far more use of the Finns....
