11.12.10 – Friday was a busy day so the weather on Saturday set the mood for staying home and taking it easy with the kids. We were in our pajamas past noon playing games, surfing the web and as Emma would say, Chillax’n. Emma’s the queen of chillax’n but she’s like me and can’t sit too long. She asked if she could make chocolate chip cookies, the classic American cookie which I have a huge weakness for, so I quickly agreed with the plan. Searching for the ingredients and cookie sheets proved to be a bit of a challenge… what is baking soda in Finnish?… but after four different stores I managed to find what we needed. Emma rewarded us with some killer cookies

Hey Tom, Let’s see some photos of your apartment building!!
Actually the outside of my building is not so impressive. My building is a typical apartment building which is boring from the outside but the location and the view, so what’s inside, makes it a killer place.
I’m just curious. Same with my building at Bratenahl. Not a pretty building but it’s great on the inside looking out.
Baking! One of my favorite pastimes. Good work Emma.
an excellent life is made of collections of many excellent small things
