I think it should be WORLD EBOOK DAY, since the day before is Earth Day ( Apr 22nd) and Ebooks are VERY GRRRREEEN

No, really, the "rose and book" day is real. It's not about having a bouquet of flowers sent to your girlfriend/wife, by the way, but (AFAIK, again) giving someone a single red rose, better together with a book (or e-book reader

).

I had some Portugese cake yesterday - there was a boiled egg, still in its shell, at the bottom!

The cake was nice, but I didn't eat the egg.

I believe you're looking for this smiley :

Code:

        \_|  __               
          \_/__\                     .--=='/~\

                                        '--==.\}/

i think it will with the code tags. it's lovely. i'm very impressed.

edit : well, it works when you see it in the new reply window.

i don't know why it breaks as soon as you post...

That's probably the "folar", an easter tradition. The egg is boiled, it's edible.
