Have a wonderful week, everyone.

Hi Josefa, I hope you and everyone else have a wonderful start to the week.
Today it snowed here for the first time this year. Yay!!! Snow!!!! In keeping with the season, I baked my first Christmas cookies over the weekend, and of course I had to make some cakes too (banana bread, chestnut cake). I also did a little knitting—a doily for my mom, whose birthday is on December 6.
For the new week, I’m planning to finish the doily—or at least get it almost done—and also finish the pair of socks I always take with me when I’m out and about. For lunch today, I’ll have coffee since I’m out and about, and I’m not sure yet what I’ll have for dinner. Otherwise, this week will be pretty quiet, even at the office, because my boss is out of the country.

Hello,

things are a bit stressful at work today. At home, we’re renovating.

Weekly plans??? Do the laundry, finish the renovation

Craft goals??? Finish the Advent calendar

The weather’s dreary, and so is my mood.....

Best regards, Heike

Have a wonderful week, everyone!

Our week is packed with appointments... for example, tomorrow afternoon we’ll be doing crafts at school for the Christmas bazaar, so there isn’t much time left for big plans... and the housework needs to be done, too...

For lunch, I had bread and a big cup of hot tea—I’ve been freezing all day. The weather is gray, but dry. I don’t need snow just yet…

I’m itching to start a new project, but I don’t have any ideas yet…

My crafting goal is to finish the light-colored version of my “Nami” scarf this month.

Other than that, I’ll be taking new photos whenever there’s enough daylight.

This week, I finally want to finish the baby sleeping bag. It snowed here too—everything looks magical, really beautiful!

I’ll probably bake my first batch of cookies this week as well. Unfortunately, bookkeeping is still throwing a wrench in my plans right now. As soon as I get that out of the way, I’ll get started.

My goal is to finish the coat. The back is almost done—only two flowers are left, which I’ll knit after finishing each front panel. The first front panel is 1/3 done.

I’m working the night shift again this week at short notice. :) That means I’ll be able to get quite a lot done at home this week. Right now, I’m sewing an Advent calendar, because I just realized that December 1st is already only two weeks away. And I still need an Advent wreath, too. This year, I’m going to make that myself. Junior is already looking forward to it.

I’ve already baked the first batch of cookies, but there will definitely be more to come.

Around here, the children had fun in the first (light) snow today! (I didn't find it quite as fun, though, since I was out on my bike!)
I finished the first part of my Drachenstrahl today (24 points!), and now the number of stitches is getting smaller and smaller, so hopefully the piece will be finished soon—there are still so many projects waiting...
