They do not call it a cereal in Finland, and from what I understand the actual word means something liquid-ish, like a creamy soup, or a breakfast meal. But I can’t find a work in English with the meaning close enough, maybe my Finnish friends can advise.

I’ve got this recipe from one of my Finnish friends, and it is very Finnish since blueberry is a national berry of Finland :). I usually make it in the second half of summer, when the weather is still hot so that you would look for a clod breakfast, rather than for a warm meal. Also, this is the time, when Michigan blueberries start to arrive, and you do not feel guilty to consume the whole cup of them in one meal.

My name is Henrietta (Hettie) Dombrovskaya. I was born in Saint-Petersburg, Russian (actually, back then – Leningrad, USSR) in 1963, and immigrated to the United States in 1996. I love Saint Petersburg, the city I was born and raised in, and I think it’s one of the most beautiful places in the world. Similarly (but differently) I love Chicago, and can’t imagine myself moving somewhere else in the observable future. I have three children, Igor, Vlad and Anna, all adults living on their own, and one (so far) granddaughter Nadia. I also believe that my children are the best thing that happened in my life. As for my professional life, I am working in the field of Information Technologies. When I was twenty, I’ve declared that the databases are the coolest thing invented and that I want to do them for the rest of my life. Thirty plus years later, I still believe it’s true, and still, believe that the databases are the best. These two statements together imply that I think a person can have it all, and indeed, I think so! Keep reading my journals to find out how I did it.
