The last 2 weeks we have been buisy trying to get into the christmas spirit. Or at least I have. When I read all your messages about snow and glögg and lussebullar I get depressed. Or no, I try to make the best of it. We have made ginger biscuits and decorated them, toffee, and christmas decorations for the tree. Yes, we have a tree and it is already dressed. It's plastic of course. And I have made a candle holder for advent candles, it's quite beautiful actually. And we have been to the Swedish church, where I had glögg (mould wine) and Emma had christmas porridge with cinnamon. Then we went to the girls' winter concert at school. So sweet and lovely. Emma looked quite shy and worried, Isabelle was giving it all she had. Quite a performer (what else is new). Then I have been wrapping christmas presents and obviously buying christmas presents. Big garage for James, an activity ball for Isabelle....
But where is the snow and where is the cold? It's just impossible to get that special feeling. I don't even go near the pool at the moment. It just doesnt agree with me.
