Mum and me decided to do a traditional Christmas tree this year - the kind with blown glass ornaments and stuff, as it was in her childhood - and mine, too.

This is the result:



To compare with how I usually decorate my Christmas tree, see an example from last year:



Personally, I prefer the style from last year - it's more natural, more balanced and, IMO, more pretty. But Mum was feeling nostalgic, and I wanted to do her the favour.

And finally, a selection from this year's cookie production:

You can post any recipe you'd like to share. I've created a data table especially for group recepies, where you only need to add the details, over on the Edhellond list.

I find it interesting to learn how people in other countries cook or bake - it widens the horizon, don't you think? ;)

I posted a recipe to the group. It is a dessert my grandmother used to make which I absolutely loved, full of calories and my forbidden food (due to allergy), eggs. It is not my grandmother's recipe as that I lost long ago in a move, but the closest equivalent I could find on the web. I was so excited I found it, that I am going to try and make it this weekend.

They might have a bad reputation, but IMNSHO calories are a good thing, actually. You must tell me what the dessert turned out like. Thanks for posting it to the group.
