On a dark november day

"Two roads diverged in a wood, and I, I took the ones less traveled by. And that has made all the difference."


I am reading a book by a norwegian mental trainer. For those of you who understand norwegian:

"Jorden er omtrent 4.45 milliarder år gammel. Du skal være her i 80 av disse årene hvis du er heldig. Du utgjør en forsvinnende liten del av jordens samlede historie når du først er her, burde du virkelig gjøre det beste ut av det. Tiden du har på denne planeten, er ikke engang synlig for det blotte øyet på en tidslinje som er tre meter lang. Hva i all verden er vitsen med å la være å gå for drømmen?"

Akkurat nå er drømmen min Zanzibar. Og dit skal jeg i januar!!

BRRRR!!!!

 

Oslo is minus 13 degrees today. I went out to meet people at the subway station, and they were freezing! Oh my I love my canada goose - it's my best friend right now :)

 

Ille bra julevors - a christmas preparty

This saturday I invited some friends for a preparty, and look what Inger made. A rebus made of "lussekatter", a norwegian tradition for the 13th of december. The are made with saffron and raisins.

I made it! "Ille bra julevors" ("very good christmas preparty"" in my Fredrikstad dialekt)

And the prize for us girlies? A cake made by one of Anne who was in the competition for Norwegian cheese cake of the year! YUM!!!!

And then we hit the town!
