On my way home.

Yesterday Stockholm was imbedded in snow with traffic chaos as a consequense. I felt really lucky to have walking distance to work!

Lucia - party with saffron buns and lots of mulled wine!

I've been a busy bee!

I have amused myself by making liquorice toffee and chocolate with nuts and fruits, but now I think I am done with the domestic work for today!

Hmm..

Ok, I have a fever. What do I do? I work all day, come home only to wash some clothes, clean up the kitchen, plant some Hyacinths with moss and then cook spareribs for the first time in my life. Yes, I am definitely not well..

Christmasy dinner with work at Backstugan!

Post-vaccination update.

Influenza-like symptomes? Check! I have fever and feel overall totally wiped. Oh by the way, this is my new jacket that I had tailor made in Thailand. I love it!

Friday night, December 4.

24 years ago I got a call from my mom, telling me that my long awaited siblings had finally arrived. That night, after I had seen and held them the first time, I fell asleep on moms hospital bed, utterly happy. So here here, to my beloved brother and sister on their birthday! This Friday I couldn't be with them, instead I spent it with a quite pregnant Nina. She truly looks wonderful. Mommyhood is becoming her! Anyhow, I took a two hour long walk to the other end of the city to meet her and together we took the metro to the southern suburbs to watch the play "A midsummer nights dream" in a new version. It was really good and had a couple of smart touches to the old theme, it was refreshing. The rest of the weekend I stayed in, at home with Erik, taking it easy and discovered that it was just what I needed! Thoug one exception was made when we ventured out to his parents for a very nice Sunday dinner.
