Wearing Red at the Swedish Christmas Fair :)

I completely forgot that Sunday was Christmas fair, to the point where we ended up missing all performances (what can I say, sleeping till the afternoon is my Sunday vice). I still decided to go, though, because unlike in Finland where there are similar fairs every weekend, this was a one day event and if I missed it I'd probably spend all Christmas regretting it.

And I was right to! There were so many familiar items and decorations that I'm used to being around at Christmas time. Most of the participants spoke Swedish amongst each other, especially the church members (of Church of Sweden). I do regret missing the raffle though. Instead yobo had some pea soup (always better than American attempts), while I got a cup of glorg (it was a very cold rainy day). I wondered at the price, and then I realized that it wasn't really glorg as in the juice, but it was liquor (I'm somehow used to being carded for those...I guess I must be looking old)! So after a few sips I went and got myself a plate of cookies and cake to help drink it down in the middle of the afternoon LOL

While there I also saw spike mats that I coveted last Christmas...! They have a store in Beverly Hills that sells them! I think I may just get myself one for stress relief...more on this product later.

Did you go to any Christmas Fairs this year?

  1. I haven't gone to any Christmas Fairs yet, but I plan to!

    Also, I hope you don't mind if I use this comment box to reply to some of your other messages :)
    1) Lower lashes are surprisingly comfortable! I've found that top lashes are more uncomfortable than lower ones, probably because they tend to be heavier. I kind of forget that the lower ones are there.
    2) I haven't experimented with many foundations but I think that Make Up For Ever's HD foundation is great, especially if you use the stippling method to apply it. That way, you get good coverage and that "airbrushed" look without the heavy feel of wearing too much foundation (because you don't have to use as much when you stipple!)

    very aimee
