Ginger bread baking, a strong tradition in Sweden – no Christmas without gingerbread, believe me.
It’s the preparations, it’s the smells, it’s moments with mulled & gingerbread, it’s the atmosphere – the whole feeling. And gingerbread houses, decorations & the family getting together in the evenings with the winter darkness outside.

Now I’m not a baking (mom) even though I might wish I had the talent. But like most, I love freshly baked, newly baked, the smell, the heat and all that implies. I grew up with freshly baked cinnamon buns and a glass of milk as a snack. Nowadays, I see it more as a soothing activity with the preparations and the actual baking process itself.Also, I think the scent that spreads through the house, makes all in the household very friendly.

We were invited to a gathering with some parents & their teens last Sunday. I think that I’ve met some of them once before. The purpose were to agree about a destination, price & other details for our teens who’s in the same class. They are planning to share a holiday apartment, in either Byron bay or Surfers paradise, to celebrate graduation.
But the thing is that it’s very difficult to know what to bring to the host family, as a gift. It can’t be too much & excessively but not too little either. After some searching, we finally decided to buy a nice little box with different kinds of cookies. That’s something that is luxurious, I think! Sweet & smelling, nicely wrapped, freshly made cookies. That is love, in all simplicity.
