Vasaloppet A celebration to an early King

I morse vaknade jag med en nybakad hjärtformad tekaka på bröstet! Min lille son hade igår hälsat på sin favoritgranne Ulla och fått hjälpa till att baka. En riktig högaktiv busunge är han men man kan väl inte annat än smälta som smör vid såna här tillfällen!......

This morning I woke up with this heartshaped bread on my chest! My little son had visited his favorite neighbour Ulla yesterday and helped her to bake some bread. He´s such an active inventive little fellow that´s hard to keep up with sometimes but at occasions like this one can´t do anything but melt like butter in the sunshine!....

Today is a day I will spend on the couch! With the TV and radio on from the biggest and oldest skievent in Sweden : Vasaloppet Till this day I have only "skied" the race from the couch wathing TV but perhaps I should try it someday...several of my friends have done it and one of my best friends is skiing right now as I write!
