In recent years we have started a tradition on Christmas Eve. Instead of buying a lot of gifts for everyone and placing them under the Christmas tree, we have started to play a game that is not Secret Santa. It is a dice game that has become quite popular here […]
Now it’s time for us to say: Dear readers, we wish you a very Merry Christmas! Here in Vagnhärad and Sweden, Christmas Eve is coming to an end. At this very moment, we’re enjoying the silence around us after a hectic day, There was no snow this year, but that’s […]
It’s time to take a look at the reading list for November. All in all, it was a hectic month, but I’m happy to say that I found some time for reading. I have also had time to think about a new reading challenge for next year. Stay tuned to […]
