Today at 2 pm, me and another one of my roommates caught an english-language service at Temppeliaukion kirkko. Neither of us are religious, but I wanted to see these beautiful buildings in action. It is an international evangelical congregation, so I found their message a tad harsh compared to what I'm accustomed to. However, the service ended strong, with a couple swahili song-and-dance hymns performed by the African women in the church. Their little babies toddled and danced along beside them.
I’ve also decided this is a baking day. I’ve already made “dimply plum cakes,” following Dorie Greenspan’s recipe here, except that I made individual cakes using a muffin tin, pressing half a plum into the top of each cake. They were a delicious breakfast with coffee. I’m also making sweet potato shepherds pie to use up the remaining sweet potato puree, adapting this recipe to the veggies in my freezer.
I’ll probably also make this garlic-potatoes gratin to eat during the week
