The 2012 -part.
So, a whole year is about to finish and a new one to come. Here's my 2012.
Best freedom feeling of 2012: Running around on the streets of Paris with Paul, being drunk on red wine in the middle of the day & hardest decision to take is if we should have crepes or crossiants for breakfast.
Best accomplishment of 2012: Becoming a manager in Accessorize.
Worst 'this is so wrong'-feeling of 2012: When leukemia stole the life of a family member, leaving a father and his two kids without a mum/wife.
The biggest 'I'm home-feeling' of 2012:When moving to North Finchley with Paul.
2012 greatest food-discover: Curries!
Best movie of 2012: The Moonrise Kingdom
The best pizza of 2012: Freezing cold night in stockholm and unable to find a pizzeria, me and P spotted a man carrying a famous pizza box. We ran after him and asked where he got it from (he answered quickly & ran off as he didn't want it cool down). We found the place but we decided to get drunk on cheap beers before. So we did and the biggest kebab pizza ever tasted like something sent from heaven.
The 2nd best pizza of 2012: The hungover pizza enjoyed with my brother & Paul including the ingredients: fillet of beef & bernaise sauce after my sisters birthday party in sweden.
Hardest 'going on the airplane back to london'-feeling of 2012: In the beginning of November after the funeral, realizing I won't be with my family again until next year sometime.
The song of my 2012: Rebecca Fergusson - Nothing's real but love

Swedish christmas came early this year as I had to work on christmas eve and the weekend before. It was all premade food, but nether the less absolutely tastylicious with Mulled wine [glögg], meatballs, 'princesausages', eggs & fish roe, ham, smoked salmon, vörtbread and potatogratain.
mmmm!
And as I will be working on christmas Eve at 15.00 o'clock I will not be watching what all other 9 millions of Swedes will be watching; short clips from walt disneys classics cartoon.... So we watched it together during the dinner :)

One of my favourite christmas decoration is these pine cones Paul picked up from the pavement many months ago. The other day we sprayed them gold and then sprinkled gold glitter and added a gold string to put them in the tree. Lovely!
our tree :)
But my ultimate favourite christmas decoration must be the accessorize meerkat offcourse!
Then it was time to make our own gingerbread! As it was P's first time to make ginger bread he was quite excited and wanted to use 3 types of chocolate pieces and 2 colours of icing to decorate them... :D
This is gingerbread Sid, as P thinks I'm very much like him (have heard this from many people actually...) as I love to sleep, can be very funny and.... looks a bit like him? haha... Sid is one of my favourite characters anyway.

Pre cosy-ness at Gabbys place before we head off to 'Jack the Ripper tour' in east London. A different way of celebrating Pauls birthday :)
Home made mulled wine and cider, mmmm!
half of the crew about to head out :) (Please notice P's outstanding outfit ;)
loads of people turned up and the tour was absolutely amazing with great acting and story telling skills.
that the weather was a bit rough, the local people seemed quite dodgy and the streets stank of wee made the whole experience even more authentic.
After the tour we went to a indian restaurant and then off to a pub. Lovely evening with great people. <3

And that was that splendid evening.

We've got a new friend running around the houses! It's a mini grey cat with magic eyes. I'll show you a close up later when we're a bit closer friends.
Other than that, I had a chocolate face mask from Lush. It's amazing and you get to look this crazy when you have it on!
