advance, happy new year. I hope you all had a good start into the new year and New Year not work Do you needed.
But let's start first with Christmas. On Christmas Eve I had to work six days go a day off and was thinking how I would spend for this. I've decided to tell me the evening so a legendary gingerbread train usher tinker. I was looking for an extra night before the 50km distance to Banff a gingerbread house. After 3 hours, estimated 10 shops filled with disappointment and almost abandoned hope, I have found as a compromise a gingerbread train-Craft-Set.
has a lot of fun the "thing" to assemble and the result was impressive:
clock against 19, I invited then three other German Christmas dinner in our apartment. For 90% of the residents here is that is really on 25 and 26 Celebrated in December. would like about 20 minutes before the others came, I've only ever considered what I cook for. In the end it was a kind of fish dish with tomatoes, peppers and lots of cheese. As a sauce, a delicious lemon-dill sauce and the other was quite surprising, nor very good baked potatoes brought.
I would have never expected that my constellation would be such a culinary hit. In any case, all tasted very good and it Created least a little Christmas spirit. It was even gift - Leon gave me German beer (Beck's) and he got me a kind of candy-box for "emergencies". I have also put up on Christmas morning, gifts from my parents which I have just got.
On 1 Christmas Day everything pointed to it, to be a normal day. After only one day off right again from 9 bis 17:30 clock clock work and then relax at home for now. My Roommate and I actually had previously planned a big Christmas dinner on 25 December organize, but we were somehow not buy it. Up to 19 clock we sat to 5 in our living room and annoyed us very nicely on our stupidity. But suddenly opened the door and our roommate Steve from England came with estimated 10 bags of groceries in the door, stumbled. Somehow, he had still to get to buy the series and we had really found some Christmas dinner. And it was actually really good: turkey and ham with mashed potatoes, peas, roots, and a pretty good cranberry sauce.
Oh, I also had my first coffee shore to visit. Dave, my old couch-surfing host Edmonton decided during the Christmas holiday to Lake Louise to come for skiing and of course I offered him a couch. That here he even has a delicious Christmas dinner would get would probably not even he expected. Was definitely time to act quite so funny on the other side of the couch surfing principle.
The days between Christmas and New Year were technically working just stressful. It had everyone back again one day off a week and the skiing was just absolutely packed. I believe in the cafeteria, some people had to wait about 40 minutes to a portion of chips, because the queue was so long. Fortunately, the major holidays are now over, and again such stressful days, there will be no more likely this season.
New Year's Eve itself, I had my next day off since Christmas Eve. For 18 clock I had arranged to meet a friend for a New Year's Eve dinner to cook. We opted for a huge nacho plate with minced meat and many other things. It looked so good that it's almost too good to eat was.
Tasted in any case extremely well. After that we were both invited to be another German on a few beers. Was not the smartest idea, the 1km-stretch without a hat and gloves to go - for there were -30 ° C. Was amusing to return to the place where I have lived before about 3 months for 2 weeks time. A lot of fun and by about 22 clock we went back home to run back to the big party here to go in the common room. Were probably around 150 people there and the New Year was celebrated accordingly also loudly. I think to 0:45 clock was for me but already the end because I had to work the next day and did not wake up with the biggest hangover. Well, am I still felt pretty crappy and the day ran pretty hard on the length. What I was glad when I get home at 18 clock in my Bed was and I've just looked at only a movie.
Oh, and the result of New Year's hike at -30 ° C is quite thick which I find the cold on New Year's hangover still rumschleppen with me yesterday ... I could have me all day and still felt quite tired and sick, fortunately I now go back a little better. Fortunately, now is now back "half" of the current 6-day working week ...
I hope your first days in 2011 have gone a little healthier.
Stay tuned, Flo
