Boller - or sweet wheat buns - is a favored snack and comfort food for Norwegians, especially enjoyed for childrens' birthdays or on a cold and rainy/snowy day coupled with hot cocoa.
One of the key ingredients of boller is cardamom - something that gives them a distinct aroma and gives them the more lengthy name "cardamom boller".
They say dinosaurs had feathers. I prefer to think they were a bit more stylish than that, as proven by this dinosaur wearing a swanky aluminium coat.
Oh yes: Sometimes when you bake boller, you put a piece of chocolate (usually dark) in the center before baking. That way when an unsuspecting recipient bites into the baked deliciousness they get a sweet surprise.

The Whiskey Jack is a surprisingly large bird that likes to eat food held up by tourists. In spite of what the image suggests, it does in fact have wings.
On a recent trip to Europe my brothers and I invented a new game called "Pool Cue Jenga". It is the best game ever invented.
The rules are simple: You must use a pool cue to remove tiles. Only one cue can be used, and you can not use your fingers.
