Fake Christmas Day

Hej! Vi mar mycket battre idag. Vi borjade dagen med en frukost pa en diner och det gick ratt bra att ata. Jim ligger och vilar en stund nu och jag lyssnar pa mina ljus anglar medan spelar ljudlost God of War 4. Vi tanker ha ett litet julfirande idag, men vi far se hur mycket av maten som kommer fram pa bordet, vi mar fortfarande lite illa av tanken pa julmat. Men, vi far se till att det blir ett mysigt julfirande med julklappar och Kalle Ankas Jul pa youtube klockan 3pm.

Hi! We feel a lot better today. We started the day with breakfast at a diner and it was fine to eat. Jim is taking a little nap now and I’m listening to my candle angels while I’m playing God of War 4 on mute. We want to have a small Christmas celebration today, but we’ll see how much of the food we put on the table, we still feel a little sick of the thought of Christmas food. But, we will make it a cozy celebration with Christmas gifts and Donald Ducks Christmas on youtube at 3pm.

The Paradis box from Ikea is out on the table of course (tradition in Sweden).
We’ll see if we actually eat something from it.

Merry Christmas

Hej, och sorry for dalig update. Jim och jag gjorde kottbullar av ekologiskt kottfars fran Whole Foods pa julafton. Klockan 3am natten till juldagen kom allt ut igen. Matforgiftning! Det var det varsta jag nagonsin varit med om tror jag. Julen spenderades pa toa. Jag har aldrig matt sa daligt i hela mitt liv. Och stackars lille Thor som inte hade nagon att leka med. Vi lyckades att ta med honom ut nagra ganger, men det var det var helt fruktansvart. 
Vi lyckades sova hela natten och idag har vi fatt i oss lite brod iaf. Vi ar sa gott som friska igen men vi maste vila upp oss. Vi ska fira julen imorgon istallet. 

Hi, and sorry for bad updating. Jim and I made meatballs out from organic ground beef from Whole Foods on Christmas Eve. At 3am, the night to Christmas Day, it all came out again. Food poisoning! It was the absolute worst I’ve ever experienced, I think. Christmas was spent in the bathroom. I have never felt so bad in my whole life. And poor little Thor that didn’t have anyone to play with. We managed to take him out a few times, but it was terrible. 
We managed to sleep all night and today we got to eat some bread at least. We are almost healthy again, but we have to rest. We will celebrate Christmas tomorrow instead. 

IMG_20141226_153534_2Det ar ratt varmt och soligt idag och det var skont att komma ut och ga en promenad.
It’s pretty warm and sunny today and it was nice to get out and go for a walk.

Alex Clare at Irving Plaza

Igar var vi forst och at middag pa ett stalle i narheten av Irving Plaza. Shrimp Burger with sweet potato fries, super gott! Sen var det dags for konsert. Vi hade missat forsta bandet med vilje och andra bandet borjade nar vi kom dit. Forst efter 10pm kom Alex Clare in pa scenen. Det blev en ratt sen kvall.
Alex Clare var mycket battre forsta gangen vi sag honom. Men, igar var hans sista dag pa en lang turne, sa man forstar ju att han ar trott. Han spelade nagra latar fran hans nya album och mixade med en del lite mindre kanda latar fran forra albumet. Jag var pa bra humor och sjong med saklart. 
Jag fick inte ta med mig kameran in (forsta stallet de har sagt nej pa), sa jag har tyvarr inga bra bilder fran igar. 

Yesterday we first went for dinner at a place near Irving Plaza. Shrimp Burger with sweet potato fries, super nice! Then it was time for concert. We had skipped the first band on purpose and the second band started when we got there. First after 10pm, Alex Clare came on stage. It was a late night. 
Alex Clare was much better the first time we saw him. But, yesterday was his last day of a long tour, so you can understand that he was tired. He played some songs from his new album and mixed it with a whole lot of less famous songs from his last album. I was in a good mood and sang along of course.
I didn’t get to bring my camera in (first place where they have said no), so unfortunately I don’t have any good pictures from yesterday.

Puffy chocolate

Vi gick till Whole Foods och kopte mat infor julfirandet igar. De har mycket ekologiskt och bra produkter. Kvittot svider att titta pa, men det ar det vart vid jul.
Pa kvallen gjorde jag lite julgodis. Mjolk choklad, mork choklad, mint droppar och rispuffar. Super enkelt. Jag gor samma godis nastan varje ar. Har inga nya bilder, men nedan ar fran julen  i Sverige 2012

We went to Whole Foods and bought food for our Christmas celebration yesterday. They have a lot of organic and good products. The receipt hurts to look at, but it’s worth it around Christmas. 
In the evening I made some Christmas candy. Milk chocolate, dark chocolate, mint drops and rice puffs. Super easy. I make the same candy almost every year. Don’t have any new pictures, but below is from the Christmas in Sweden 2012.

Hobbit, dance and ceramics

IMAG4903_2 IMAG4904_2

Klockan 10 am igar morse satt vi i bio salongen tillsammans med typ max tio andra, haha, och sag The Hobbit: The battle of the five armies. Inte bara for att jag har haft den pa ljudbok tidigare, men tyvarr ar jag ar lite besviken pa filmerna. Sagan om Ringen filmerna ar mycket mycket battre. Nar man t.o.m. tar ett break fran filmen och gar pa toa och inte bryr sig om man missar nagot, da ar en film inte sa bra. Men jag ar glad att vi har sett dem. Jag gillade boken.
Pa eftermiddagen motte jag upp Emma och gick pa Johanna’s dans performance pa Peridance. Koreografen, Appolonia Holzer, gor ocksa fina keramik grejer som hon salde pa eventet. Vi hade en trevlig eftermiddag och nar jag kom hem hade Jim bestallt pizza, yum!

At 10 am yesterday morning, we sat in the movie theater together with maybe maximum ten people, haha, and saw The Hobbit: The battle of the five armies. Not just because I’ve had it on audio book before, but unfortunately I’m a little disappointed in the movies. The Lord of the Rings movies are much much better. When you even take a break from the movie to go to the bathroom and don’t care if you miss something, then a movie isn’t that great. But, I’m glad that we have seen them. I liked the book.
In the afternoon I met up with Emma and went to Johanna’s dance performance at Peridance. The choreographer, Appolonia Holzer, also makes nice ceramic stuff that she sold at the event. We had a nice afternoon and when I came home Jim had ordered pizza, yum!
