From the train

Hello readers! Sorry, I became a bit unactive during Christmas, but I've been doing nothing, just spending time with my family. Yesterday I did take the train to Gothenburg and did some shopping with one of my friends. I didn't get much in the end, we didn't stay long either because we were both recovering from a cold and felt a little tired. But I did buy a book, this years winner of the Swedish book prize Augustpriset.

On the way home the train kept stopping every so often, because there was a problem with the signals, so I took some photos from the window with my phone. Because it's with my phone the photos don't have that great quality, but I think it's okey anyway.

Lastly I wish all of you (a bit late) happy holidays!

A cold morning

Hello everybody! I was so sure that I had already made a post like this the other month or so, but it turns out I never actually got around to doing it, so here it is now instead. These photos were taken some time ago, in early/mid autumn. You can tall because the leaves and grass still have nice colours.

Today was my first day of the break, and I spent it sleeping until noon, making Christmas candy and reading. Hopefully I'll manage to do something more productive than this on some of the other days, because after all I do have a couple of assignments to do before school starts again.

December evening...

Hello readers! Today was my last day of school, I had train problems during the morning but after that everything went smoothly. Now I'm going to read a lot and sleep in with my cat. I did not take any photos today, because it gets dark very quickly this time of year. Today was actually the winter solstice, the shortest/darkest day of the year. So I really didn't get any time too, but I thought a photo of the Christmas tree might be good enough since it's Christmas very soon.

Gothenburg

Hello everyone! For today's post I've taken some photos from Gothenburg. I realized that I never actually taken any photos of this city, even though I'm here everyday. These photos might not be the greatest since I was really cold - because I thought it wouldn't be that windy today, turns out I was wrong - and didn't really pay that much attention to the photos. I just wanted to go inside, and the weather was not the best today.

I took these photos around lunchtime, but in the mornings the little river creates mist that lay between the trees, and it look very nice during the sunrise. Unfortunately I was a bit too late, but this morning it looked better than when I took the photos.

Mint chocolate truffles

Hello readers! It has been such a long time since last post, I really didn't think I would be this infrequent with my posting. On the other hand I have really not thought about blogging, I've been quite busy lately, but it's a lot of fun regardless. The only downside is that I do get a lot less free time. But last week I got a cold, and I was home from school today. This weekend I made these mint chocolate truffles and here is the recipe (in Swedish). They were really delicious, so today when I didn't have anything else to do I decided to make a post about it.

Since it's almost Christmas too, I thought it might be good to post something edible. I'm also going to try really hard and blog these six days leading up to Christmas, but it is a loose promise though.
