Pre-holiday haircut*

Why does the camera battery always run out when I manage to bake something elaborate AND visually attractive? Now the world will never see my blueberry & mascarpone merengue roulade. It was awesome, and gone in about 7 minutes.

Ok, if you really really want to know what it looked like, it was exactly like this but with blueberries. Yes, just like that one. Except that mine probably tasted nicer, because that one has dessicated coconut, the ingredient of evil.

We're going to Finland this Sunday, so there might be some kind of change in the posting frequency - not that I'm expecting all my 3 followers to hold their breath between my posts.

Hopefully it will be sunny and I won't have to resort to my emergency plan of watching the 2nd season of Chuck which I'm bringing with me, just in case.

Also hopefully I won't wake up with mastitis tomorrow, but that seems very unlikely at this stage. However, if I do wake up in the middle of the night, shivering under two blankets despite the heat and with a depression the size of Ronaldo's ego, there's very little I can do about it. I just hope that it passes by Sunday, before I have to make the Camino de Ryanair pilgrimage walk to the furthermost terminal at Dublin airport with two kids and all that goes with it.

*No, I didn't get a haircut before my holidays. (God knows I wanted to. I have grey hairs and I had a near-death experience when I discovered them.) The title is a reference to the blogging term, of which this particular post is a prime example of. My sincere apologies.
