I Need To Go To The Homeland For Its Midsummer Holiday Sometime

The Finns want a piece of Italy's Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi. And who, when speaking proudly of their country's couisine, brings up HAM? It's a lunchmeat fer chrissakes.

Loved this part:

Finland began its midsummer holiday Friday, with most Finns leaving the cities to grill sausages over open fires, eat pickled herrings and drink beer and vodka.

Oddly enough (or maybe not, considering my genetics), I found myself last night enjoying beer, vodka, and pickled herring. And I also cooked some sausages hot dogs over an open fire on the George Foreman grill.
