My lovely blog

I got this award from Lady Dada. Thank you dear. There is a kind request to answer to couple of questions. Here we go.

1) Favourite food.
Wow, how come the first question is already so difficult? Isn't it supposed to start with the easy one, kind of warm up? I love food. No, I correct I love good food. It can be traditional Finnish food like fried pike perch (or perch), almost which ever Thai or Indian dish. I could mention here also one shrimp-lemon pasta J makes sometimes. J's cousin makes lovely mussels. My dubious favourites are also oysters, but only in France and in the special occassion. In my top ten there are also porridges (rice and barley). 


EDIT// I forgot all the cheeses!

2) Favourite sweets.

Can we skip this? I do have a problem with the sweets. Especially the ones, which have lots of E-stuff and all that artificial shit. I do love chocolate as well. Salmiakki = salty liquorice.

3) Favourite book.

It's boring that I repeat myself, but this is difficult. My favourite books varies by time, but at the moment I could say Puhdistus by Sofi Oksanen, Seitsemän veljestä by Aleksis Kivi, Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts, La Dame aux Camélias by Alexander Dumas (the son) and lately I've been carried away by Tuomas Kyrö (Mielensäpahoittaja, 700 grammaa).

4) Favourite way to do handcrafts.

Knitting the woolen socks.

5) Favourite film.

Lately I've been watching only brainless shit, but let me think. Le Havre by Aki Kaurismäki is the best Finnish film I've ever seen. Icelandic Nói Albínói by Dakur Kári is lovely, A Single Man by Tom Ford was touching and beautiful. Brokeback Mountain by Ang Lee left a mark on me as did the new version of Casino Royal with Daniel Craig. There are probably about thousands of films, which I love, but I just don't remember now.

I love all the films where is Mr Darcy, I mean Colin Firth. I just noticed that there's coming a new Bridget Jones film in 2013 and its name is Bridget Jones's Baby..

I'd like to give this small award to LMK and Tubbs.
