And the hard-boiled egg was at the bottom of the sponge (we didn't know it was there until we felt the shell cracking as we cut into it).

Ah. There are clearly variant easter cakes in Portugal. Further research is called for. I'm happy to volunteer.

~sigh~ A poor, shy monkey is tossed aside like so much bushmeat. I'm not bitter (actually, probably sweet, like roast pork).

Cheers,
Marc (who rarely follows any [insert subject]Day except for "Marc's Birthday")

Hello, I from Catalonia (Barcelona). The books day in the first time was an 7 October and it was born in Barcelona. After it moved on 23 April because in Catalonia is San George. Also is the love day.

I will give a rose to my girlfriend.

23 April in Barcelona:

I was trying to take it easy on you --- in case you felt you were being chased too hard. See, in that other thread where you "are lucky you remember to don trousers before walking the dog" I was tempted to invite myself along on that walk, but I refrained, in a very lady-like manner. Shall I throw the manners away and go back to flirting with you, you cute thing??

Okay, I won't tell. On a completely unrelated matter, can I have your wife's email address?

Cheers,
Marc

I keep wondering why only a day?

We have a book week (one for children's books and one for adult books). There is even a gift given in that week if you buy a book: the "book week gift". It's a specially written book, by a selected author. Awards are given to the best books and there is a book ball...

(it is actually 10 days long and was started in 1932, the children's book week started in 1955)
