My thoughts exactly. Where's the IRC? Where's the trap music? Where's the high-proof liquor?

How else do you expect to get anything done? :-P

(Cute write up though. In Norway, they call this "koselig". Honey-moon with a sig-other kind of day, maybe, but some of us like to live more.. intensely.)

This was "veldig koselig".

And I wholeheartedly recommend learning how to poach eggs. Not only is it yummy, but there is a distinct pleasure to having your three-year-old sleep over at her grandparents, and at breakfast time there request that her egg be poached.

That word sounds half-way between the English "cozy" and the German "kuschelig". A missing link. Interesting. :)

It is kinda cozy and cuddly, kind of. "Koselig" is one of those words that doesn't have a direct translation, and takes a bit of experience for the immigrant (me!) to get an understanding of.
Thanks muchly for another example! Harder to grasp for outsiders living here.
