Christmas eve!
We celebrated christmas eve altogether at my dad’s house and had wonderful foods and drinks. Opened all the packages and had alot of fun. Sadly Santa Claus did not pay us a visit, we guessed he had enough to do… We took some pictures while opening gifts and had fun. The turkey tasted great, dad is really gifted in the kitchen! Good times, now I look forward to the New Year’s eve at my friends! More pictures too for sure!
Back in Sweden
Aaaah, back in Sweden for some Christmas times. Starting with some drinks and good times with my family, good to see all again. Let’s see if Santa is coming tomorrow too!! Merry holidays all!
Tickets booked for Sweden over Christmas
Christmas holidays will be had in Sweden this year, just booked some tickets. I will go the 23rd of December and come back the 8th of January to Holland again. There might be a chance I’ll be in southern France over New Year’s playing with the Young Sinatras. But that’s just an option. It sounds nice though, to get away from the cold for a couple of days. I’ll give you heads up on that one later.
The ‘Kerstman’ came visiting
So the 5th of December is over, the Kerstman came to visit even me this year! He brought good times, a shaving machine and a ticket to a nice Gala evening this coming saturday. Very nice. Sadly Sinterklaas looked really evil, though he brought some laughs. We gave him one of my Lucia buns and he was happy too.
Time for the Lucia buns! Yammie!
It is time for Sinterklaas celebration today and I made some Swedish classics to take to the party. Man did this year’s Lucia buns taste good!!! Some swedish things are just great… a bit of safran in there too… Yam!
BEST music service on the Internet!
Just want to inform about probably the best internet music service there is at the moment. It is called Pandora and it is project that helps you to find new music. You simply enter an artist that you like in the box and Pandora will find music that has the same style, feel or mood, and keeps playing continously music that you like. You can have as many channels as you like, and it just GREAT! You can register with your email address to get more than the 10 free hours, and it is free, except for some small commercials on the top of the site; you have it minimized to the task bar anyways… And here comes the best!!… If you use Firefox or Internet Explorer as your internet browser you can now after listening SAVE all those temp files and make them to normal mp3 files! Search on google for ‘pandora’ and ‘access files’ for instructions.
RSS feeds added
I have added a RSS feed link in the right sidebar on top (the little one in color) for those of you who use news readers. If you choose to subscribe to my site, your news reader will automatically tell you whenever I update my site with new info. Most web sites today have this feature, and if you have some favorite sites you check every day for new information, you could as well have a news reader instead that directly shows you what is new and what is old. I think it is excellent. Personally I subscribe to some digital photography sites like DP review and Rob Galbraith. To read more about RSS, please check out What is RSS?
There are loads of different news readers for both PC and MAC that are free, and some web browsers like Mozilla Firefox, Opera and Safari have built in support for news feeds. If you cannot get the link to work properly with your news reader you might have to copy this following link and paste it into your newsreader (I know Opera and the Firefox plugins work this way): http://www.henriksoderlund.com/?feed=rss2
