The Sunday Post 9th Edition

The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer ~ It's a chance to share news~ A post to recap the past week on your blog, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up on our blog for the week ahead. 

Yesterday was little xmas, celebrated with glögg (kind of like mulled vine, just no alcohol in the version I want.) We got a tiny bit of snow..tiny. And today it's -14 c :/ (6,8F). I also got a new  work contract and get to stay for the spring semester :).

    1. Well...yeah what is it really. It's a Finn-Swedish thing (and maybe the Swedes have something similar too). We put up some xmas decorations, maybe take out a little xmas tree. When I was a kid we gave out little xmas cards. Just a tiny xmas really. Even get a present or two

    1. Of course :) It's a great challenge.

      Haha, bf has the alcoholic kind, but I prefer the white version as it is much much yummier. It all depends on the brands too, I am very picky.
