Blood Pudding

Yesterday, Lina cooked me dinner and gave me a Scandinavian delicacy...blood pudding. Knowing what it was before eating it made the experience rather challenging. Blood pudding is solidified, boiled pigs blood and cream, which is fried and served with lingon berries. Although I tried it, I don't think it is something that I will partake in again. She later said to me that she won't tell me when she is serving moose tongue and a sort of haggis...I thanked her for that.

My exam for my first course went really well. It was challenging but fair. The next course is about how to create a sustainable society, i.e. who creates the rules and enforces them, what rules need to be created and how much liberty does a government have in creating these rules. I think it will be more of an opinion based course rather than factual, which will make the lectures much more interesting to listen to than the last course.

mmmm, blood pie, how delicious.....well I had some apple, and pumpkin pie this weekend (I love having a girlfriend) different, but a lot sweeter I would think. Hey Nat, do you know if there is a run in London in the fall? Something like the run for retina research...but apparently that is in the spring. Trying the get into shape.
