Gløgg&pepperkaker






The weather is my least favourite at the moment. We have snow which partly melted, iced over at night, melted again during the day and froze over again when the temps dropped at night causing the worst bumpy ice that is impossible to walk on and very stressful to a non norwegian who attempts to waddle like a penguin, taking baby steps whilst the norwegians expertly whizz past me!
I have a strong feeling that I'm going to hate this winter as I'm now being told that last years winter was perfect in the fact that we had dry snow because of the frigid temps which kept the ice at bay.hmph! At least our flat is warm and cozy, plus gløgg and pepperkaker make everything a little bit better....

  1. There is nothing good to say about ice! But christmas preparations and homemade cookies make somewhat up for it.

  2. Det er en sann fryd å følge deg både på Instagram og her på bloggen :) I går var jeg på fretex og kjøpte små sopp, slik som du har i blomstene dine :) To krone stykke.

  4. I know just how you feel about the ice! I hate the feeling of jolting my body and nearly slipping over with almost every step, and it makes it all the more annoying to see the experienced Norwegians power walking past. Some even jogging!
    But I wonder whether you ever use crampons/ice grips? I use them most of the time now when it's really icy, and find they do help immensely. If you don't have any, I most certainly recommend them!

  5. Being from Florida, I, like yourself, fell in love with a Norwegian and moved there 4 years ago! Love will help you through this!
