Our Advent Calendar



I'm very happy because this year I did finish the Advent Calendar on time, I reuse the little paper rolls tree I did last year. But this time I manage to sew all the felt ornaments and I sealed on the back too,



I think it looks like a honeycomb.I also includede little notes for family activites such as ºWe will go  to any museum you chose today", and others that just say "I love you" or "I admire you".
 




I use the ornaments as milestones or reminders of family memories. So there is one from the year he started to play piano or take chess lessons, and from birthdays too, like the year we made one themed on fruits or cars.

I hope we will have time to be together.

So the biscotti came out just fine, I have been eating them a lot, officially starting the eating season, I guess.


Biscotti de chocolate con nuez

I think they are a great gift, you can just place them in a fabric bag, such as this one I made for my son to take to art class for sharing.

Bolsita

They are esay enough, and the recipe is here.

Our Advent crown reinterpretation is going well, we are working in our virtues a reflex about our progress every night, and then we lit a candle and read a poem, the same every night for a week, this certanly changes our mood.
