IT'S THE WEIRD DELICIOUS, WORLD'S BEST FINNISH BREAD I ATE SOME DAYS AGO because it was the only thing i found in the freezer



Fixed that for you. I seriously want some of this bread now, but of course you can't get it in Iceland at all. Salmiakki, yes, that's everywhere. I can even find an acceptable sauna here (or failing that hop in a hot spring instead, which is not the same but very, very good regardless), so that's two of the "Finnish holy trinity" right there. But rye bread... nope, and I miss it so much.

it's weird in the same sense horses are weird moose. It's flat and circular, but I have to agree with lauf it's really good. dark finnish bread is good, which is why we hoard them and fill the freezer with them whenever we've been in finland

And considering too seriously to have a second day reading under a blanket. I finished two books yesterday. It doesn't help for what I should do. Mmmh...

I feel you.  We were so fond of a particular Italian-style bread from our local military commissary, that after that base closed, we would drive a couple of hours to the nearest other facility to stock up once a month.

We got really fond of the wonderfully thin oat bread while we were in Helsinki. ^-^

* Curry BARGES IN WITH SOMETHING COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT TO THE CURRENT CONVERSATION

Guys guys guys guys I'm really excited!! In the IB we have to do research on medium and artists all the time for IB art (high-level weird art focused on Really Understanding Art and the Process Behind It as well as Culture Surrounding It etc etc) and I just finished the medium analysis (watercolor, of course, because I'm cliché and I was feeling very enthusiastic about it) and now I'm going to do my artist study on Mucha! :D It requires all the normal biography stuff with a focus on cultural background  B  U  T I also get to do an artist emulation and I'm really excited ok this will be great
YEET
