Pure Chance

What you can see below is *not* shards of my windshield.
Instead, you can marvel at the view of lots of tiny ice droplets that would have inseparably clung to Smørebrød's window panes. However, pure chance had it that just yesterday I pulled a brand-new thermal insulation cover over the windshield.
And alas!, today it rained at temperatures below zero degrees Celcius. So, it was a snap to snap off all this ice... but according to the Law of Conservation of Hard Work, it was all the more difficult not to slip on the iced ground when taking the cover off.




(You attentive guys out there might suspect some horrible reason why I do not make use of my paid underground parking lot. The reason is that Smørebrød is somehow too long and broad to fit well into that space. Yesterday, my colleagues laughed when I told them that I had to cover the steel rails to the left and right of the parking space with styrofoam to protect the rear mirrors.)

The Most Beautiful

The Most Beautiful Instant Ramen I Have Had In The Last Two Days -




(It's Demae Ramen - Sesame Flavour, with chives added, and Vanilla Coke. Please try this at home. However, beware that this is not a full meal. It provides only a bare minimum of the feeling of being stuffed, not to mention the nutrition value.)
