It's getting closer to Xmas by the day and today I wrapped all the Xmasgifts. That's hard work but fun and I put on Xmas CD's to get in the mood. It worked.
My sister J wrote yesterday and wanted me to have photos of the dishes I make but we ate it too fast I didn't have time but I did manage to take a photo of some of the things I have baked. It's safronbuns, chocalatecookies, oatmealcookies and gingerbread biscuits.
This is also the shortest day of the year and the longest night but we actually had sunshine today for the first time in a very long time. I went out with Hilma for a walk which was nice. It was high fresh brisk air. Wonderfully easy to breathe.
Tomorrow work again then home to put up the Christmas tree and decorate it. Because on Tuesday our adopted "grandchildren" T and T is coming over with I and K. We are having coffe and my homemade cookies and buns and then of course Christmas gifts for the children.
In the evening the big boys will come home. I don't know about D yet but J and E is certainly coming and staying the night so they can have their first Christmas gift in the morning. That is tradition. Another very nice tradition we have is that J always they day before Christmas make our toffee for Christmas. He is so good at it! I make the last preparations with the ham and then - we have the best meal in the night when you have the newly baked ham with a Wasa bread or Leksand with lots of mustard and to go with it - julmust. That's heavenly.
But for now it's going to bed early that is the goal so I will wake up and go to work - last 4 days now.
