Sissel Kyrkjebø and Odd Nordstoga in concert

I granted Elin two tickets to the Christmas concert with Sissel Kyrkjebø and Odd Nordstoga as the morning gift from me (together with a pair of earrings). She wanted me to join her, and today was the day for the concert. Both artists are very good, and together they are good as well. We had a really enjoyable one and a half hours.

But I must say that Oslo Spektrum sucks as a concert hall for such type of music. When Green Day and Metallica and such bands have a concert, the volume is so loud that you do not notice the echo, but when Sissel sings you cannot avoid hearing the fact that Oslo Spektrum provides a lot of echo. I would rather prefer Oslo Konserthu

Blind testing caviar

I had bought caviar from Coop here the other day, but Elin insisted that Mills caviar was waaaay better. I challenged her, and arranged a blind test. Prepared two spoons, and made her decide who was best – meaning according to her, which one was Mills. Tasted, and said sure as hell “This is Mills caviar…”….aaaand she was wrong!! Victory to me!
