A dessert

I spent last weekend with my friends in Helsinki. They are great cooks. An anatomy of a simple, delicious dessert is pictured here. I just realized I do not have a photo of the result. Too much champagne, I guess.

Camilla's tears

I had a lovely dessert moment at my friends' place last Saturday. It was the eve of 1st of May and my ever surprising friends had decorated their dining table with miniature dollhouse furniture with amazing details.

This gives an idea of the scale. The lovely heart topped cupcakes are called Camilla's Tears as HRH Duchess of Cornwall was the only member of the British royal family to shed a tear at Westminster Abbey wedding service.

Tourist Guide of Finland 1952

I bought a tourist guide book of Finland from year 1952 at a second hand book store in Seinäjoki last summer. I fell in love with the book's cover, but I found more treasures inside. Look at Helsinki's poster and map - are they not adorable? Finnish Tourist Board should try something like this when branding Finland and not those so-last-season reindeers.
