Nobel Prize and only one name dropped

Because I work part time in a bookstore this was one random thought I had at work today: They might actually give the nobel prize in literature to an American this year. Probably not since they gave it to an American last year, but they could do it as an anti-Trump statement. Writers are intellectuals, intellectuals doesn't support that kind of politics - except those who do, but most don’t. Nigerian writer Wole Soyinka (b. 1934, Nobel prize winner in literature 1986) even made his Green card “inoperable” in protest of Trump. Yeah, to give an American intellectual a Nobel prize should be an anti-Trump thing.

Okay maybe I am a little too silly

I am thinking about picking lingonberries this year. Partly because I have a receipt on Lingonberry ketchup. The same book has a recipe for Chipotle mustard that I already has made*. It should be pretentious and snobbish to say: “Sure I eat hot dogs, I have homemade mustard and homemade lingonberry ketchup on it”. Then to take the DIY philosophy serious you have to make the hot dog yourself. Preferably from an elk you have killed by digging holes with spikes in them in the ground and waited for the elk to fall down in it. That's how they hunted elks until the 20-century and everything else i cheating.

No to be serious the last years I have been picking berries in the forrest. So I will likely do that this year too.

* It’s a simple recipe: take two tablespoons each of mustard powder, dark syrup, chipotle paste and water and mix.
