// Stand back! We’re gonna try science! / sugar, oil, something – I guess… Nice that someone who speaks French is reading the recipe…! / Bling! / Oops, it burned. We got a heart-shaped coal lump! / Bling! / Smells like ham. Feels like sponge. / Bling! / Wow, this is actually really good! So we just made chocolate cake in a mug in microwaves in five minutes! Not bad!
Totally carried away by peculiar pastries was Ina
Another comic about how my 15 square meters serve as a human dwelling.
Kati visited me!!! <3 YAY!
// How does your your burner work? Just a minute, I’ll range the groceries and then show you. / Plates are in the tub, by the way. / There wasn’t enough space on the table – so I made the table on the floor! Super!
Weird furniture solutions fondly appreciated by Ina
// Wow, what a beautiful evening! It’s spring, it’s Friday and I’m in France!! / Feels good to be alive! / I wonder what to do tonight? – since I’m still young and pretty and the world is open for me… / …
Haluaisin kutsua kuvattua tilaa sarjis-kalsarikänneiksi, vaikka tavoilleni uskollisena en mitään teetä vahvempaa nauttinutkaan 😉
Firmly stuck inside the four walls was Ina
a.k.a Pariisin kevät
// Right… I’d say it’s not THAT warm yet… / Oh goodness, like, it’s not really THAT cold…!
Woollen socks regularly worn by Ina
// The little choices of everyday life make the BIGGEST difference. / … / I just bought some very expensive AIR! / Fault in our bread. Nutella goes right through… /
In fact, Nutella is no longer supported ’cause it contains PALM OIL! Instead I’ve bought some very fine, artisanal and deliciously rough Italian nut and chocolate spread which is actually made of nuts and chocolate. It’s also vegan, sans gluten and kosher. Don’t ask how much I paid.
I also half-accidentally spent my weekly food budget on organic cheeses in the market place this week. Now I have camembert for the rest of my lif– eh, month.
PS. In case someone didn’t know, ”pain” means ”bread” in French.
Odyssey of organic gourmandises in France only just begun by Ina
I’m sorry, this just doesn’t translate, at least within my skills.
(The more I think of it, it’s due to the joke being rather complicated =_=* hope Finnish-speakers still find it amusing)
The message in short is: Fresh tradition-baguette is super good! Eat it!
Already two traditions this week devoured by Ina
// 2013 So these shoes are guaranteed to endure for two years without faults or wear damage. / 2014 thlomp thlomp / 2015 SCRATCH snap crackle pop / I somehow understand you can programme a printer to break when the guarantee finishes – but I couldn’t imagine it applies to SHOES as well!
Stuck in France in leaking shoes is Ina
(Oh no, this can only mean that I HAVE to buy new shoes from PARIS!!! =0_0=)
// French and Swedish – they are the same language, right?
I’ve been having very bizarre dreams lately which I think is a sign of a serious brain overheating as my familiar Finnish phrase structures violently collide with the French… But why Swedish instead of – English?! I just don’t know…
Near and the dear French ones baffled by unexpected Scandinavian and Ina
This happened couple of weeks ago, but the moment was unforgettable …
// An ordinary evening in an ordinary Parisian commuter train… / Hé! / C’est la Tour Eiffel !! / The generally known cliché stating that Eiffel tower is visible from every single window in Paris was therefore confirmed. /
Just returned from a tiring-but-awesome micro holiday from Paris, had great fun!!
Love, Ina
// Recipe for happiness
– traditional fresh baguette
– Roqueford
– little sweet juicy organic pears
Buy ingredients from the market. Serve as perfect small mouthfuls. Enjoy in no hurry and spice up with sunshine. /
Sunday is a market day for Ina
