Awwww, Sauli sounds happy and settled in!  I love how he says his favorite place in the world is his home couch! Also cool how he carefully navigates questions that might reveal too much, like his xmas or NY plans. Really sweet that he thanked our wonderful Mia and Zinnia, too. He just seems like an all-around nice guy and I really like the personality he shows on his blog. This was my favorite part though: About habits I’ll say that here no-one eats with knife and fork, everyone uses just fork. You use knife only for cutting the food and then you put it on the table. When you are finished, you don’t put the cutlery at 5 o’clock, you just throw them around the plate . Hahahah! Sounds so barbaric. He forgot to mention how we fling the meat bones over our shoulder and stab the knife into the table when we're done cutting ;D ;D ;D When you go to Europe, here is what you do. First while eating, the fork stays in the left hand and the knife in the right at all times. The food goes into your mouth from the left hand. If you have not finished eating but want to put your utensils down, you place them across each other to indicate you are not done.  When you are finished, you do as Sauli says and place them together at 5 o'clock.  Get civilized people! reggiedarling.blogspot.com/2011/06/reggies-rules-for-dining-in-better.html |

Throwing meat bones around is "unasseptable". (she says in her best type-written supernanny voice)
With my etiquette lesson done, I bid you good night.

queenrockband.blogspot.com/Wednesday, December 7, 2011 Freddie Mercury and Michael Jackson Collaborations To Be ReleasedTwo previously unreleased Queen tracks featuring Freddie Mercury and guest appearances from Michael Jackson are likely to be released next year, it has been revealed. There had been plans in the Queen camp to put together a whole collection of various previously unreleased recordings featuring Mercury, though those plans have seemingly been dropped after Roger Taylor and Brian May decided there were not enough complete demo recordings to justify a full album. However, it seems that the two collaborations with Jackson are suitable for a public airing, and it’s been reported that the tracks have now been cleared by the Jackson estate for release sometime next year under the Queen banner. Hmmmm...if true, I wonder if Queen will use Adam to promote these 2 songs since both Freddie and Michael are gone or... they could just play the tracks. :D

When you go to Europe, here is what you do. First while eating, the fork stays in the left hand and the knife in the right at all times. The food goes into your mouth from the left hand. If you have not finished eating but want to put your utensils down, you place them across each other to indicate you are not done. When you are finished, you do as Sauli says and place them together at 5 o'clock. Get civilized people! reggiedarling.blogspot.com/2011/06/reggies-rules-for-dining-in-better.htmlNot just in Europe.... this is how everyone I know eats as well. Here is the Jim/ Claude Kelly clip..... |

Okay, I'll trust Adam to pick a lead guitarist....  ....Laughed at Sauli's description of our use of cutlery. Haha! Makes us sound like barbarians!! (funny, cuz when I started dating my husband who is Dutch - I considered his way of eating with knife in one hand, fork in the other equally....odd). ;D Dgtr had a boyfriend that considered finger foods barbaric. So..... I made sure most meals at my home were finger foods. Did not like him  |
