Miele made this delicious concoction called Glogg. Its a Scandinavian mulled wine of sorts. He steeped Aquavite, Port, and Red Wine with raisins, sugar, cardomom, cloves and cinnamon sticks. Very festive for a Christmas eve get together!
I finally lit the candles I had been saving since last year. Thanks for the candle sticks Marmee ! I think they look pretty good. The gingerbread house is Doodles creation and I keep finding crumbs around it from where he has been tasting things. At least I hope it is him and not mice or the Borrowers. The Borrowers have been responsible for a lot of things that disappear here lately.
I am having trouble cropping photos. Our tree is already out of the house. It dried right up. The poor thing never seemed to take water. I kept checking the water level and it was always the same! Oh well, we needed space for the Plarail anyway!
We are currently set up as a double decker with 2 trains going! Thanks for the freight train Great Grandma. He hasn’t left this thing alone since we set it up. We had a fantastic holiday . Yesterday we went out a bit and it was something like 70 degrees. A little hard to believe its Christmas time.
