Christmas time again?

In Mid-October I always get a little x-mas nostalgic. It’s getting pretty cold and that just makes me want to jump around in the snow and sing x-mas carols. Unfortunately there isn’t any snow in Reykjavík these days, only in the bloody North, yuck---I curse those lucky Northerners! Although the weathermen keep saying that it’s going to snow everywhere in Iceland this week, I have started wondering about taking desperate measures to make my surroundings look more like December. I have been contemplating about buying loads of flour or baking soda and sprinkle around the garden, but I am afraid that the neighbours wouldn’t be impressed. It’s also a bit messy. Then there’s the idea of just unpacking my x-mas ornaments, decorating the house and listening to Frosty the bastard on repeat…hmmm, nope, sounds too much like “girl needs therapy”. After thinking about it I have reached the conclusion that the best way to indulge myself in a premature x-mas craze is to (drum roll please) prepare an English fruitcake. It’s all very Christmassy and festive. If my memory isn't failing, I think that it just takes a bunch of old fruits and loads of booze. So here's my idea; put various fruits in a bowl and put it outside on the lawn. The birds are getting hungry at this time of year and this will attract them to your garden. Then you can sit by the window while sipping the booze and watch the little cuties eat the fruits. This way, everyone's happy; the birdies get a nice meal and you get to be drunk. English x-mas fruitcakes are disgusting anyway. If you need to soak your pastries in liquor in order to make them edible, then may I suggest you stop making them. Go Betty Crocker, go go go!
Peace

Hmm já
þetta er svo vanhugsað hjá manni. Ætti náttúrulega að vera hægt að panta snjó.
Er oft í UNI. Ætti að vera hægt að ná mér í kaffilufsu þá.

Smoochies

Algört möst að hafa snjó marr!!! Lýsir upp skammdegið og fækkar þar af leiðandi sjálfsvígum. Myrkrið étur allt ef það er ekki snjór...:)
