We went to the cottage, and had too much food. Now I should come up with some witty rhyme to continue, but that I just won't do (just humour me, I've taken up poetry as bedside reading, and am giggly). No, really, it was fun. I got slayed at ludo, so my reputation is clearly stained. Something must be done.
Did I ever thank you for the wonderful crime recommendations? I don't think I did, so I will now. Thank you, it was incredibly helpful. Because I'm an incurable procrastinator, I never got to the bookstore before I left. But now I have a great list of books for next Easter.
We Norwegians are weird. Easter means that we run to the hills, to stay a week at our cottages. If you're really Norwegian, you have two: one by the sea, for summer, one in the mountains, to ski. We're sort of grudgingly Norwegian and stick to one by the water – a fjord, no less. And we go skiing, with oranges and Kvikk Lunsj (a kind of chocolate), get what we and the English refer to as a 'tan'. If you're not either reading crime, watching it on tv or both, you're just not Norwegian.
