I just finished eating a whole wedge of brie. I love cheese, and I especially love brie, because it is umami and gooey and French.

Now I have to decide whether I want to eat small sweets, or break into one of my ginormous Ritter bars*.

*I don't normally eat chocolate, and I thought Ritter only came in marzipan (mum used to get them from Tesco), but then Dingsi sent me some from Germany (which were so dinky! Literally about an inch square), and they were delicious! Then I went to Lidl the other week, and they had Ritter bars in four flavours I didn't even know about (i.e. they were not ones Dingsi had sent me). I bought three of them because mmm delicious chocolate. I gave one to my mum (nuts and krispies; despite my dislike of nuts, I might buy another one because mmm krispies). I have chocolate creme (which also has krispies) and Alpine milk chocolate. OH GOD DECISIONS. They are also about six inches square. I didn't know they came that big.

(Later on: chocolate creme is DELICIOUS. But I couldn't eat too much of it at once. Think it would be improved if I put it in the fridge for a bit first).

I wish we would get rid of daylight savings. It's annoying, has only been around a hundred or so years, and did I mention it's annoying?

I like it being dark in mornings and dark early evenings. Of course, I could up and move to somewhere further north (like somewhere in Scandinavia), but I'm kind of attached to this country (although god knows why) for some bizarro reason.

Plus if I lived in, say, Denmark, Wales wouldn't be next door, and that would be sad ._.

Before I forget (AGAIN): German speaking friends: what is the longest compound noun you know, off the top of your head?

(I ask because I love language, and because compound nouns fascinate me).

I have a Norwegian knitting pattern with no English translation.

Welp, this is going to be interesting!

(I can kind of figure out enough that I know where I'm going, but I don't know knitting terms in other languages yet. So. I may yet come back, tearing my hair out, and cursing the Norse. We will see).

(I wish I still had my headdesk icon. It would probably be appropriate to this post).
