Out of the Blue

My favorite aspect of the winter so far (or at least the wintery part of autumn) is the snowman in the yard of our neighbors. Though snowmen are common in fictional depictions of the season, they are often disappointing in real life... small, lopsided affairs that often are covered with dirt shoveled up with their source snow. In contrast, our neighbors' snowman is top-notch, full-sized, clean, and even set up with proper accoutrements like a scarf and a hat, though as far as can be told, the hat has no magical properties ("Happy Birthday!").

We actually cheated and held our celebration sunday, inviting people from work to taste some home made glögg, saffron bread and ginger cookies.

Mmmmm... Saffron... Sweden has a lot of good stuff, like cheap cigarettes, booze, pork, cheese, tunnbröd, IKEA... Of course, all of this can be aquired with a quick trip to Åre. Except IKEA. But then, IKEA has opened a store near here. On second thoughts, scratch that. The furniture is nice, but the stores are hell.
