I’ve spent the day wrapping gifts and baking. So far, on the baking front:
- Lucia buns
- Jul konfekt
- Toffee bars
- Birthday cake for the Gardener
- Blueberry sour cream coffeecake with pecans
… Apparently I need running shoes and an exercise program to survive Christmas, but I can’t wait. Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year.

It was most splendid and excellent cake! Ground hazelnuts in the batter and dark chocolate for the glaze. Many happy Vikings [and one Conquistador] were well pleased.
