Wish I had gotten that scarf from Santa! Your list works for me but I'd add reading and playing with my camera. And napping with a cat on my lap. :) Hope you're holidays have been lovely!

P.S.
degene met wie ik huizen van koek maakte is nu 90
ze is Duits van origine
zij en haar man waren destijds een soort opa en oma voor mij, nee, meer nog dan dat, ook vrienden
een van hun tradities was het bakken van een koekhuis op eerste advent
en na de dood van haar man deed ik dat met haar samen
de koekhuizen maken we nu niet meer
enkel nog römertopf!
;^))

Stringing words together,
watching the fire,
waiting for snow,
wishing I could knit.....:)

the scarf was worth all the work nice one! when it comes to therapeutic things, they kind of chynge like seasons for me. right now, it is making hearty food, like sally said, somebody else's life, a glass of grog drunk slowly, watching swedish criminal movies & watching my man reading.

ps.. jag bodde på en kibbutz i norra israel, nästan på gränsen till libanon. Under 6 mån jobbade med allt möjligt: apelsinplantage, matsal, kök osv.. träffade hur mke härliga människor som helst - det är snart 15 år sen men det känns ibland som det var igår..

je mond lijkt wel een hartje :-)
Mijn therapeutische activiteit van vandaag: heeeel langzaam een hele grote afwas doen met muziek in mijn oren.
