A lovely bright green package arrived at casa az yesterday that had something for everyone! It was from Karin (aka Dragonqueen), who sent us three locally made jams from Sweden (rhubarb, gooseberries and carrot with red currant) and a cute selection of cat toys. At first I thought the mice might be a “swallow hazzard” but what I didn’t expect was that Loki would go totally mental over them. Luna likes them too, but Loki can’t seem to get enough of his little purple mice (Karin’s signature colour).
So then I thought I’d try exchanging mice for string and suddenly the String Game took on a whole other dimension. And it looked eerily real when Loki trotted back down the stairs with a limp mouse in his mouth (well, real except that the mouse was purple).
Thanks so much Karin! Your gifts have really added some extra fun to the holiday season here. So now Peter and I can share the jams at breakfast and the kittehs can fight over their new toys. 🙂

The grooviest version of this song ever.



24 Monday Dec 2012

So you almost got a very silly video of me, Luna, Loki and Peter doing a rousing rendition of Feliz Navidad, but after I uploaded the pics I found out I couldn’t share the vid without paying an annual fee to JibJab.com. And when I looked at the original Elf Yourself site the list of TERMS AND CONDITIONS was so baffling that I dared not share anything here without risking a massive lawsuit. So fuck it. No more elves.
But I’ve been having a lovely Christmas Eve so far. Got up early and got some work done, then went to the gym. After that Peter and I did some final food shopping at the market and after that we went out to say Feliz Navidad to some of our friends at their bars. And now we’re back home, all comfy and cosy. I’m going to prepare a whole fish baked in salt for the first time and we’ll watch a couple of Christmas films. I kinda like how Sevilla totally shuts down after 6 pm on Christmas Eve, including bars and restaurants.
What’s Christmas Eve like where you are? How are you spending it?

This is my absolute favourite Christmas song and I’ve never heard a better version.
