Not quite dead...

Today I've been baking. A lot. And will do some more baking tomorrow. I haven't decided to become a baker, but tomorrow there will be 4 brand new 8-year-olds in the house (and in the world, at that!), so naturally - there will need to be a constant flow of cakes! And lots of family coming to celebrate with us.

Saturday we'll be "celebrating" by going to a music festival in Oslo and see Rufus Wainwright (and others) - first time for the kids! They're quite looking forward to it, actually - to see this strange character that has their mother going all gooey... And to celebrate Rufus (?) - or life, actually - Norway has just passed a new marriage law, finally establishing equal rights for everyone, no matter who you love!

That's all folks, I'm off to finish my baking session for the night...

Oh happy birthday to them! Have I told you they were born on the same day as Fernando Pessoa (the biggest poetic genius ever!)? And also in Sto. Antonio's day, the patriarc of Lisbon?
Good luck with the baking and have a good party!

Well done Norway! Your kings were in Portugal recently and there were some reports about Norway on our tv. They mentioned of course their excessive budget (meaning too much money) and that cracked me up. I never imagined any country could have that. :)
