Easter

Apr 16, 2017 10:01

Easter is upon us, and I'm doing my very best to eat a little bit of candy every day.
I'm also reading a crime novel, and I do not read much crime. The thing is, here in Norway, you're supposed to read crime over Easter. The reason behind this is because of some publishers pushed crime during Easter early in the 1900s, but I can't remember the story exactly. It worked though, we're still stuck on Easter crime stories.

We actually sell more books this time of year. People genuinely read more. It's a bit funny.

The very image of a Norwegian Easter is in a cabin, snow all around, sunshine, crime, coffee and kvikk lunch (kit cat type chocolate), oh and oranges...
I'm steering clear of mountain trips, cabins and snow. I don't really ski. I'm happy to eat some candy and read though.

These days off work have been fantastic. I think I've really needed them.
Thursday Eliin came over, we ate bacon pancakes for breakfast and watched "Eddie the Eagle", then we got some coffee and watched "Rogue One". Later we got McDonald's and watched "Sing" and we finished the day watching "The Secret Life of Pets".

Friday was game-day with Morten.
Two rounds of Grand Austria Hotel and two rounds of Mombasa. Both great games.





And now I'm with my mom. Just relaxing.
