If you know me, you know I like food. I like to eat and I like to try different things, different dishes. I have even been blamed (thanks, little bro) to favor a refined cuisine, a fancy one, if you will.
Here we've been making mostly pasta and rice with various things. It's been good and fulfilling - has kept the hunger at bay - and we've found some good stuff. But. I was getting bored. As I said, I like to try different things and I just can't keep on eating the same thing day in, day out. I get BORED.
So, we bought potatoes. And made mash. With.... meatballs. (See where I'm getting at here?) And brown gravy. And people, I couldn't have been happier. Even the delicious bolognese didn't get me this happy. Lihapullat ja perunamuusi. Mmmmm. And some rye bread to go with it (thanks, mom!). I was in Finland heaven.
Added bonus: I have Fazer chocolate. Sounds like a desert.
In other news, next week is reading week which means no classes. Holiday? No. Days used to catch up in reading and writing essays? Most definitely. But this weekend? Total holiday.

Yammy, looks good, just like homemade. Have you put also some onion? Finnish (self-made!) food is really tasty. Especially now when you can use a variety of root vegetables. Hmm, just put them in the oven and let them cook :)
There was onion indeed in the meatballs. There has to be. We had to improvise a bit, since we were lacking some ingredients that can only be found in Finland, but it was delicious nonetheless.
We just saw this documentary about the benefits of a plant-based diet. Made me feel bad about the meatballs... And crave vegetables!
But meat is healthy, it gives all PROTEIN you need :D By the way, I think improvising is the best way to cook!
