Last night we celebrated Øystein's 26th birthday, with dinner, cakes and yet another Norwegian Gold Medal in Vancouver.
Today is Marta's day, her 14th birthday.
"Don't forget my birthday tradition" she reminded me yesterday. "Skoleboller and hot chocolate for breakfast. You know I've had this every year except the year you left me on my birthday to travel to Venezia and Austria to write on your book. I missed you so much then"
I am not forgetting Marta, neither your 10th birthday when I was in Austria with Dagmar and her family, having a lovely time with them but missing you terrible, nor to bake skoleboller.
I was up early to make the pastries. Now they are ready, the table is set, but where are you????????? How can you be still asleep at noon when it is your birthday?????
I know Marta will be reading my blog today (I've promised her to post no photos of her), you can leave her a congratulation comment if you want :-) She will love that.
