Lazy Saturday

Today feels like it should be a Sunday - it's rainy and cold, and I've managed to sleep through half of it. I just had my new favourite breakfast: a double serving of Harve Grot, which is norwegian porridge. Apparently, next to tacos and pizza (frozen), Harve Grot is one of the most popular dishes around, usually served in the evening as a warm meal, or for desert if its cold. I wonder if, when having it for dinner, families just eat a little bit, let the rest sit on the table for an hour until its cold, and then call it desert? Anyway, that bit above about pizzas and tacos being popular is no lie. More than anything else, Norwegians seem to love Old El Paso and Grandiosa (the equivalent of Delissio in Canada). So far I've only tried the frozen pizzas, but Mexican isn't too far off, I'm sure. Maybe tonight?

I feel like doing something, but there's not much to do. The library here is rarely open, so studying outside of my dorm isn't really an option. Perhaps I'll find a coffee shop somewhere... if only it wasn't raining so much.
