December 6.
Today it is my birthday. I am getting older, and I am enjoying it. I am looking forward to retirement in 25-30 years. LOL. Then I will have time to sew!
Today I am preparing “Pinnekjøtt” for my family. It is Sheep meat. It is a kind of Christmas/New Year dinner. It is going to steam boil for 3 hours and in the mean time I thought I would have a nice time opening my presents (form my quilt-swapping-friends). Just went for the mailbox to collect my presents. Empty. That means I only got one gift to open.

Thanks to Oddbjørg for a lovely fabric. It is a beautiful beige fabric, with small romantic flowers, in pink and green. It is just what I was whishing for. Thanks.

And the best is: I am not the only one that forgets!

Now my kitchen needs me. I have to peel the potatoes for ten people, and make the dessert.
No stitching today.....maybe tomorrow?

I wish your mailbox had been stuffed with squishies to open today! Maybe tomorrow. You know how the mail service is. The floral fabric sounds just perfect, though.

Litt sent, men godt: Gratulerer med vel overstått!!! Ser at du har servert pinnekjøtt, kjenner lukten helt hit, men jeg venter nok til julaften med å tilberede det!
