***I thought I'd scare everyone off with a picture of myself. :)
Last month I was taking pictures of Sienna when she decided that she wanted to take a picture of me. I guess it's only fair since I'm always snapping some of her. This is the result. Not bad at all for an almost three-year-old. Better than some of my pictures of her. Wish I had some lipstick on. :)

Piristysta on tuonut viileampi ilma. Eilen illalla piti jopa laittaa ikkunat kiinni yoksi. Ah! :) Viileampaa ilmaa otettiin heti hyodyksi ja tein eilen suomalaisia pikkulettuja valurautapannulla. Voi etta ne maistuikin herkulta pitkasta aikaa. Lisukkeina oli murskattua banaania ja tuoretta kermavaahtoa. Mansikoitakin oli mutta kun mulle ainakin bansku aina vie voiton.
Tuli mieleen kun teinarina olin aina meidan perheen virallinen lettujen paistaja. Kaikki aina inisivat etta "tee sansku lettuja". Ja teinhan mina. Mielellani. Isot lajat jokaiselle. Muistan joskus unelmoineeni etta aloittaisin oman lettubaarin. Kaikenlaisia lettuja ties milla lisukkeilla. Jonkun pitaisi kylla sellainen aloittaa. Ei vaan kesatorilla vaan vuoden ympari saisi lettuja.

In English... I took advantage of the cooler weather yesterday and made some small Finnish pancakes (crepes) with a cast iron pan. De-e-elicious! :P
A picture and a recipe to follow. :)
Karly, you should come over one day and I'll make some for you. :)

Johan on Sienna nätin kuvan äidistään napsaissut ♥
ReplyDeleteMä oon surkea paistamaan/leipomaan mitään. Kerran (odotin vielä Nidaa) päätin tehdä pannukakun niin Ossi sai vuoden naurut kun uunista tuli pois 1 cm paksuinen kivikova musta levy :D Mihin lie mun pannari hävinnyt... :D
Kiittää te. Luonnonihana!
ReplyDeleteThank you for your reply. I ran two phrases through an English-Finnish online translator. For all I know they say "Greetings, earthling. Take me to your leader."
Of course you should blog in Finnish - I don't imagine you run into too many Finns in your daily routine.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading about your relationship with Jesus and prayer and your experience of your religion. I've never had any particular experiences like yours and I loved reading your honesty and joy. It makes me understand a little what the attraction is in a, to use a cliche, born again experience. I'd like to ask you some questions sometime if you're open to it.
suvi: no on kylla melko paha jos pannarinkin saat moiseksi. Sehan on "fail proof" juttu. :) Pitaisiko isosiskon tulla opettamaan vahan... :) Paasisinkin!! <3
ReplyDeletekim: What a funny idea to use the English Finnish dictionary. The translation MUST have been wrong because it said I was a natural beauty. :) Thanks for your comment about Jesus etc. Sometimes I'm really leary about writing about stuff like that. I still remember how I used to think religious people were kind of crazy. :) It's not the most popular thing to talk about but I personally think it's one of the most interesting & the most importnat ones. I love to learn about others' faiths too. It's a fascinating topic to me. I remember I used to work with a guy who thought aliens put us on this earth as an experiment. He was serious about that. I don't mind that you call my experience born again because that is pretty much what it's about. You try to bury the "bad" old you and come up as a "new" good creature. Of course none of us are perfect yet but we need to keep trying to live good. I don't mind questions one bit. I don't know if anyone else wants to read my answers but I'll answer them just for you if you want. :) Let me know if you'd rather do it by e-mail. Thanks for visiting again and taking the time to comment. :)
Miksi noin nuoresta ja nätistä pelästyis??
ReplyDeleteMmm.. alkoi tehdä lettuja mieli. Lapsetkin varmaan riemastuisi.
Yes, I would love to try the Finnish pancakes!!! karly
ReplyDeleteTaalla lueksimassa taas, ennen nukkumaanmenoa.
ReplyDeleteSoman kuvan Sienna napannut aidistaan :).
Nain kokkauskanavalta muuten jutun (jo aikaa kylla) kahdesta nuoresta naisesta jotka olivat tehneet crepes myyntipisteen traileriin. Menestyivat kuulemma loistavasti ja tarjolla oli vaikka minkamoisia taytteita. Nayttivat aikas herkullisilta, nam.
Siennalle synttäripaketti tulossa, vielä puuttuu pari juttua paketista, joten myöhässä se sitten on... :P But it's soon on it's way!! :)
