wiseheartWell, things didn't go as expected today. My friend Evie simply forgot that she'd intended to come by. After an hour and a half of her planned arrival I called her, and that was when she realized what happened. Too much to do at school - the groups had their individual little Christmas parties - and she had to stand in for another colleague, too. No problem, though. Her cookies will keep on the balcony.
The visit of my cousin was... pleasant, actually. His second wife is a retired teacher, too, and she loves to bake and to make jam, too, so we had a lot to discuss. My cousin and Mum discussed family history, and I presented them both these old family pictures, which was fun. Especially trying to guess who was depicted on them. They brought us homemade jam and cookies and a bottle of alcohol free champagne. I offered my cookies and the alcohol free punch, both of which were appreciated. So yeah, it was nice. And besides, it isn't the new wife I'm secretly cross with...
Other than that, I cooked for two days, which ate the morning, so today was full of activities. Tomorrow comes another visit, from the eldest cousin, and then I hope things will go quiet for a while.

Kudos for not blaming the woman like it's common usually!
