Finding the Christmas spirit

Being totally absorbed by the immense workload put upon us because of our move to the new housing, I have not been connected for quite a time. What was supposed to be our fantastic new home-sweet-home apartments has tuned out to be a total mess. At the moment, we have neither electric power nor water. And that is not the first time. Add to that some flooding, burning fuses, bloody accidents, lockouts, malfunctioning heating, returning noises, crazy animals, delays, delays and delays, and you get the picture. I'm sure it will be nice some day though.

To calm ourselves down and to get into the Christmas mood, we went to a glögg-event hosted by Sara at Save the Children. After a few hours of intense cooking and baking, we found ourselves surrounded by tasty (more tasty than beautiful) saffron buns, refreshing home made glögg and an improvised chicken-farm-themed ginger bread house.

I hope you all are having nice and snowy days back home. If you get some extra, could you please send the snow to us instead of to Las Vegas next time?
