Square Pillows & Topless Sandwiches

I went shopping for pillows yesterday and found out that all pillows here are square. Our pillow cases have been made redundant. They are more like sofa pillows and not like your traditional rectangular north american variety. Who knew. I also found the most magnificent school supply shop - I desperately needed an organizer and folders to keep all our paperwork in gear. We get mail like everyday. Even on Sundays. The bank likes to mail us letters often, they are all in Danish so it's hard to know what they are advertising, selling, advising or even warning. We generally rely on Chris' colleagues to translate anything that looks important.

We are really looking forward to moving into our flat on October 1st. It will be nice to be settled but most importantly I am really looking forward to packing everything up again (for the third time in four months!). This past weekend was a tourist weekend. We had a pub night, went sightseeing and had our own private tour of the opera house.

I decided yesterday that I don't like Smørrebrød. Something about the creamy buttery taste that just does not agree with me. Instead, I made myself a traditional sandwich with two slices of bread sans butter and it was delicious. When you visit us you can judge for yourself.

Had to turn on the heater today - woke up to a nearly 10 degrees! Had on two sweaters on and ski socks. With some hot cocoa and a few radiators blasting I managed to warm right up.
