Fjortende Desember

This day I awoke rather late since we had so much fun into the night the day before, so I had my tea with leftovers and some cake. Green tea with cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, cloves, nutmeg, pepper, anise seed, melon and orange. Quite subtle flavours.

Later in the day after I did some pottering around the house then *Kio came over, we had taco spaghetti leftovers from Friday and ventured out into the cold to have our semi-weekly water gymnastics, today it turned suddenly a lot colder, around minus seven so on the walk to the swimming pool we saw northern lights in the hill. It was all green and pretty, it was my second time spotting northern lights since we live a bit too far south so it felt really special. I am glad I got to see it with *Kio.^^

And we were so good in our class that everyone got a price from our instructor properly dressed in a santa dress. We got ginger bread, clementine and a chocolate, I choose the piece named banana because then I could pretend I was healthier than I was;)

Haha, but then we really ate a banana and some lussekatter.

Yes, I have a bunny-towel. From H&M home I think, in the children's department.

On the way home we spotted shooting stars too, it was quite an eventful day.

When I got home this little lady told me that her daddy was boring and please don't leave me and I had a hard time going to bed. But I bribed them with some yummy hay so I could finish my blogpostXD

As you can see I have started on the second wrist warmer, so hopefully at least one will get finished in time.

Oh, and I finally got to buy new drapes, I have been trying all December but they kept running out, but now I have eight and am just anxiously awaiting the shipment and I can't wait until I have decorated our apartment:D

Today's tea was rather shockingly just one ingredient long, black tea.

But it was good.

My friend could not make heads or tails of the knitted hat pattern either, so we will just fudge it I think. That means tomorrow I will finish one hat, and then there is just the crochet hat to go of the hats. Crocheting is hard on the hands these days so it is good I am getting better at knitting. I do wish though that I didn't have to fudge the hat recipe but properly finish it like in the pattern since I am learning to knit and reading and understanding patterns. Oh well. The hat will look good regardless ,I guess.

Today my friend and I were good and healthy, we met as I said, ate spinach soup and then went swimming, our local  swimming centre has monday evening water gymnastics, and it is a lot of fun, we are getting less scared of the water AND a proper workout. Last time I was sore for a week.

Lucky number 34 locker too.

This was a good day. After swimming we ate a banana and some crackers, who knew moving about could be fun? I am more of an sitting in the sofa crafting whilst watching TV kind of girl, but now apparently I am a swimming girl too... And earlier I did say I liked green, very peculiar.
