hi
We are running behind on our tasks and a bit overwhelmed,sadly we had a crossed wire and each thought the other had posted a note here saying beautiful FINLAND is now in the shop and on the website. Please check it out! We hope you like it! It will be in the store until February approximately.
In: Finland ,kiosk misc.
OMG …. chicken whistles!!! My BFF and I each got one when we visited Finland in 1972. I can’t believe they are still around, 35 years later!!!! And obviously from the very same mold. Mine was painted black, white and red. But the shape was exactly the same. After only an hour’s practice (deeply annoying to everyone around me), I could play “Da Doo Run Run Run” on my chicken whistle. Sadly, they are only made of clay and are very fragile. My beloved chicken whistle bit the dust in one of my many moves over the years. Thanks for the memories. Great site, BTW.

The way to have the morning porridge (every morning since I started eating solids) is:
- 2.5 dl full fat milk
- 1 dl Elovena
- 1 teaspoon salt
Way #1. Boil the milk. Add the Elovena and salt. Boil until the consistence is desired (I like it a little runny). Pour on a deep plate and dig a hole in the middle. Add a lump of butter in the hole and enjoy!
Way #2. Boil the milk. Add the Elovena and salt. Boil until the porridge is quite hard. Pour on a deep plate and add cold milk arround it (like a moat). Sprinkle some cinnamon and sugar on top (what the hell, sprinkle a lot!). Enjoy!
Way #3. Boil the milk. Dissolve some sugar (~1 tblspoon) into the milk. Add Elovena and boil until the consistence is desired (I like it a little runny). Pour on a deep plate and dig a hole in the middle. Add a lump of butter in the hole and enjoy.
From these, the #1 is my favourite.
