St. Lucia

Tomorrow is one of the shortest days of the year. The sun rises at 8.30 am in the morning and sets at 2.45 pm. This never ending darkness can be depressing sometimes... Tomorrow is however St.Lucia day here in Sweden! A lovely old tradition of light "festivities" with Lucia in the center with candles in her hair.

For mama Hedgehog there's no better way to get in true Christmas spirit than to bake gingerbread men.

Market & baking weekend

Here's some pics from the market Basar Under from last saturday. 

It went well, met lots of cute people and listened to good live music.

I also managed to draw some and made a new bangle bracelet!

Here's a part of my table:

My table neighbor sold vintage and retro toys. There were so many cute things and I wanted it all!

Some of my paper cranes hanging from the ceiling.

I was completely exhausted the day after but as it was the 1st of advent I had to make saffron buns. I'm a bit early as these are traditionally made on the 13th of december but they are so yummie, I just couldn't help myself. 

Hur firade ni första advent? Var på Ica i söndags och alla, ALLA, trängdes runt julstjärnorna och julpyntet. Ute i sista minuten som vanligt. Och jag med.
