Just got the best Christmas gift ever: a beautiful 1930s decanter with a great painting of the Swedish character Adamson (Silent Sam). I’ve never seen it before, but it fits right into my collection.

December 3, 2012
Instant Christmas feeling.
December 2, 2012
Whoa! Snow, in the very south of Sweden. Makes it feel much more right to be preparering for Christmas, baking gingerbred cookies, applying Christmas lights and writing wishlists.
