the land where 'cake' means 'small, dry coffee cake'

So apparently in Finland, flat medium-sized cinnamon rolls are called "Big Texas Rolls". Thank you, Fazer. Glad to know it.

At least they taste good! Mm, cinnamon rolls. Even if they aren't soft and squishy and don't have icing.

Finns don't really have the knack of desserts. Or snack food. Or, like... sugar. Which is why people are so shocked by how good Toll House cookies are: they taste good because they're, like, solid butter and sugar.

It's funny you mention it because I was actually re-reading your chocolate cake of DOOM recipe last night. I was even doing a mental inventory of my kitchen to see if I could make some myself, it sounded so good. I have everything but the electric mixer. :(

I have all of my recipes saved by the name of the person I got them from, and I just realized I have it saved under "Cim", even though I know your name. I guess I just never think of you as anything but Cim in my head!

Hahaha! Actually... neither do I... we've been hanging out with Wax's friends from work, who use her real name of course, but they still call me Cim because apparently she just tells everyone at work that my name is Cim too XD.
