Back (still) in the office. But now with chocolate.
It's Friday, so I must be in the office. I am currently checking and correcting the corrections to the article I believed I saw the last of last Friday. It never ends! And I've realised something horrible - here at the school of economics we only have access to really boring magazines and periodica! If I want access, online or physical access to fun (and/or useful) magazines I have to go to the library downtown. Woe!
But I have chocolate. It was a gift from one of my students. That is the upside of using the word "sjokolade" (you can guess what it means) in almost all and every example, the students occasionally get good ideas. Namely to bribe their teacher with chocolate.
This chocolate is from *checks paper* Latvia. It certainly doesn't taste like Norwegian chocolate. Chocolate is one of those things that taste differently in the different countries. I wonder why. Habit perhaps? I often find that foreign chocolate taste all wrong. Often it's too sweet, or too fat, of too much milk in the milk chocolate. Sometimes the texture is wrong, to grainy or too smooth. I have sent enough Freia Melkesjokolade to friends in exile to know that I am not the only one having this feeling about my national chocolate. Is it just us Norwegians, or do you have feelings for you strange foreign chocolate too?
