Week 7, Tasting sweets

Week 7 was all crafting first cardboard model of camera backpack, drawing shoe sketches and preparing for return of assignment. My room was huge mess in this week, even I cleaned my floor and desk every day after working on. And it's not helping that I have carpet floor, especially when I'm cutting card and theres millions of pieces of it. I just don't get it, cause the carpet is s

I didn't add anything else there, cause this was enough to see does
everything fit there. Turned out to be just little bit too small.

Luckily good food helps always! It's so nice to cook
something and do something totally different. 

I also tasted finally some British chocolate and baked good.

Cadbury is British multinational confectionery company and it's second largest brand in world, after Mars. (And never heard of it before coming here!) It was established in Birmingham in 1824. (Finnish chocolate brand Fazer was founded in 1891) So I tasted dairy milk small chocolate bar, I think it's maybe their basic chocolate. Taste was good and really sweet. It had not so good texture, like something was missing and wrong i  there. I felt like they don't maybe use real milk in their chocolates. If I compare to Finnish milk chocolate brand Fazer, they have more smoother taste and texture. It's more rich. 

Second one I tasted was baked good, Cherry Bakewell from Mr Kipling. Mr Kipling is producer of cakes, pies and baked goods from UK and it was introduced in 1976. You can find their sweets at almost every food shop here is. (For comparison, there might not be so big brands in Finland.) Those small pastries tasted all right. Overall they were sweet, bottom was quite tasteless, icing really sweet and really industrial-flavored, cherries I didn't care. I could eat those if someone offers me, but I wouldn't buy. 

At Saturday morning I had to see new Disney movie Moana. At first when the trailers came I thought nah, maybe that's not so interesting, but then I heard from everywhere it was good. Also I listened song "How far I'll go" too many times before seeing movie and I'm loving that so much. I obviously were only adult there, if I don't count parents with children. The movie was really good, goes absolutely to my top 5 animation movies! I just loved the songs and especially "Who you are". I think I feel having something similar with Moana, loving home, but feeling yearning to somewhere else what I don't know so well.

Weird shaped building

At Saturday we also tried to do Finnish Shrovetide buns, but something went horribly wrong. They were flat and hard buns... Never had flat ones, but I ate those anyway, cause Shrovetide buns you eat once in a year. We also had new experience with cardamom. We found only cardamom pods, we had to open pods and crush what was found inside. It looked like mouse shit. :D

Cardamom?!
