Saturday August 18th (Sauna time!)

[Pagan]

Yep, today is sauna day across much of Finland. Most people now have those electric stoves, but ours is the treasured old-school wood fired stove. It does take longer to heat up and it is more work, but it is such a difference! I guess this is what happens in a place that doesn't have cable tv or many movie theaters. Finns get together and go to the sauna. Heck, Anthony Bourdain even went with Sami Yaffa on their No Reservations show. I have a day of cooking and cleaning both before and after. Homemade baked mac and cheese with pulled pork and bacon... can't wait...

I may get some work done. Will have to see on that... kind of hard to work on porn with the inlaws underfoot.
