Nowadays he's much more fuddy-duddy and makes fine little pieces. All lined up and ready to be put in a tin and saved for Christmas days.
I do have to keep an eye on the tins, though. Sometimes the content in them seem to become reduced...rapidly.

Never too old....

What a lovely tradition, Ulla!
ReplyDeleteI had to chuckle when you said you had to keep on eye on the tins because the contents seem to lower. I have to do the same thing here. Teenage boys are always hungry and especially like to eat home baked treats. lol
Thanks a lot, Katherine. :)) We have made marzipan and other confections with our children as long as I can remember. It's a tradition that the children make it with my husband, and then I bake lots of Christmas cookies with them. :))
ReplyDeleteTeenage boys are indeed really, really hungry - and tired ;)! Sometimes I can't believe how much Emil can eat. But he does do a great deal of skating and trampoline/tumbling, so he has to get some energy. ;))
But when the energy once in a while comes from the confection and cookie tins, then I have to keep an eye on them. ;)) My husband loves marzipan too, so it's never easy to know whether it's him or Emil who put their fingers in the tins. ;))
Må indrømme at godterne også forsvinder herhjemme og jeg vist kun skyde skylden på een......Mig selv :-)
ReplyDeleteHaha, Miri. :)) Jeg kender det godt - selvom jeg ikke er så vild med konfekt (næ, småkager så er det en anden snak!).
ReplyDeleteMen vi skal da også være lidt gode ved os selv i julemåneden.
Hav en hyggelig aften. :))
