We always eat duck on christmas eve with potatoes, potatoes coated in sugar, gravy and such. I get it ones a year and its amazing. Mum makes an amazing duck. My sisters fiance will spend the christmas with us for the first time which will be nice.
Cinnamon is one of the spices we use a lot when baking for christmas. But there are others that are very christmassy that i dont know the english names of.
What we call pebernødder, brunkager, vanilie kranse are some of the traditional christmas cookies. We also make things out of marzipane and nougat and chocolate. Often we put nuts and raisins in as well.
I will be making some of the traditional christmas candy and cookies but with a bit of a twist and some mire advanced things i think.
Going to a christmas market at a midieval castle on the last sunday of november with my boyfriend. Cant wait :) there will be a market here where i live on saturday that i will go to as well.
Im starting to make a plan for all the things i need to do and bake in december. I will also be making some things to Put the cookies in so i can give them as presents to the people i love. Im also buying a few boxes for the purpose.
Then i need to buy wrapping paper and all kinds of beautiful things i can use for that. (Wrapping is a BIG deal to me) :p it will be a busy but wonderful time. Cant wait. :)
