Naked HIVE; Birthday suits ftw!

Happy Runeberg's Day Hive! I am quite sure none of you has any idea what I'm talking about, but guess if I care

Well okay, I'll educate you so you know another new thing about a foreign culture. It's the birthday of this fellow: J.L. Runeberg. He is the national poet of Finland and his birthday is a flag day. On Runeberg's Day it is traditional to eat Runeberg Pastries and I actually wish I could share this treat with you guys. When done well they are absolutely delicious, and I just had a perfect one.

What do you mean if she cared about you? How would she help?

For a while last year, she would let me give her the money I wanted to spend on internet purchases so long as I sent her receipts. This worked fie right up until October. She changed her credit card number and I kept asking her when we could set it up do that I could use the new CCC info. She deliberately lied to me and sad that we would eventually, but we never did.

I told her that if I had to I'd resort to using debit VISA gift cards. At that point she still made no effort to try to help me.

So now I use the cards and can't spend more than $100 on a single item as the gift cards don't go any higher in value. If my sister was still helping me my limit would be $150 on any item.

How about a recipe? In English of course.

I think I could find one, but I've found that selfmade are not nearly as good the ones you get from a pastry shop. Unfortunately this is a pastry that is not served anywhere except in Finland as far as I know, so you can't get one

But, I'll see if I can find a recipe.

 

[Blackrat]

Here's one but I don't think it's quite right. Regardless, it should be near, as far as I remember the finnish recipe: Finnguide: Recipes: Runebergs Tarts

How do you get the money?
