... aka more Baking Tales.

My not-so-little Silvan girl was here in the afternoon. We finished decorating "Braune Pfeffernüsse und Schokoladensterne", then we baked "Lebkuchenplätzchen" (honey cookies), "Vanillekipferln", "Zuckernüsse" and something she called "Hexenkrapfen". And we had an insane amount of fun. Now I'm dead on my feet, but it was worth every aching bone in my body - which are about all the bones I have. *g*

I did not know cooking was so hard! XD I'm glad you had fun, though :) And I bet they'll be gorgeous.

Being on my feet all afternoon is what's hard. I have a circulatory problem and get swollen feet easily. Right now, I can barely crawl around in the flat. *g*

But yeah, the cookies are gorgeous.

Oh yes, my last job was 90% standing and sometimes I was there from 9 am to midnight on overtime, I remember the legs. :( I hope you rested today

It depends. Does rotting at school for seven hours count as resting? *g*

I suppose, if you were sitting down most of the time :)

Well, no, it doesn't. Legs hanging down are not much better than standing on them, at least not for me. Circulation still stocks, alas. *le sigh*

Are you supposed to do continuous, gentle exercise? In places like offices or other jobs where you have to be at desks that is almost impossible :(

Oh, I do exercise every day. But this is an inherited condition from my grandmother. It's unpleasant, but seeing that she'd lived to the ripe age of 96 with it, I don't think I should be seriously worried.

That's a great age! No, I think you are good for some time yet! :)

It sounds wonderful! I'm so glad you have your own fangirl: teachers like you deserve to be adored!

I take my fangirls wherever I can get them. They're an endangered species.
