Watch out Nigella

Sólveig Lilja got to come down to watch some TV last night as she did the night before. This time she just watched what we were watching, first ER and then Nigella Lawson's Christmas cooking show. She made all kinds of sauces, fillings, deserts......... and the turkey of course, with a lot of sugar, cream and butter, and then she sat down with her family to have dinner. Everything she made looked very pretty and good. Then after the credits - and I thought the show was over - we saw her come down for a little snack. She took a huge slice of bread, put all sorts of things on it, bread sauce, cranberry sauce and whatever, then two big slices of turkey and then another huge slice of bread on top and started woofing that down and then we heard; "Oh for heaven's sake!" from the three year old! How wonderful and how appropriate.

My parents came by yesterday afternoon after I finished work. They brought us their Christmas gifts, warm woolen socks for the girls, a new toboggan for Sólveig Lilja (which we had asked for), shirt and tie for Bob and a very nice top for me. They stayed for coffee and a little chat but then had to go since they had yet to feed the sheep. The toboggan is too small for Sólveig Lilja so we will take it back and see if we can find a bigger one. What I would like is a proper size one but with a little seat to support her and possibly even a belt to tie her down with! I just wonder if there is such a thing.
