molde

Turns out Roseby is Molde's biggest(?) mall. its two stories, decent sized. The only picture i took while in there was of a dog in a pet store cuz he's dressed up XD
Alex bought me wrapping paper and ribbon cuz he wanted to wrap my presents up in something i'd like. so i have cute xmas themed paper i'll take a pic of on xmas day, or when he's done wrapping :D he was my partner in crime in helping delay robert while me and mary went to look for a christmas gift for the latter. alex bought a cute lego starwars shirt for himself since it was on mega sale from 249 to 48nkr. i bought the only thing i really needed... nail polish remover with acetone in it so i can remove the super glue on my finger later -,-

we then went to a large electronics store to get a dvd for raymond, and headphones for alex because his parents cant stand the boom boom pows of battlefield 3. XD the headphones cost a ridiculous 849nkr! i was in shock when i saw the receipt, but mary said she'd gladly pay more for the silence WAHAHAHHAHA

after two hours of shopping that went by really fast, we headed to where raymond and hilde lived. hilde was in a cooking frenzy XD she baked christmas bread and we made almond chocolate thingy while we were there. mainly wanted to use up the almonds.
so she neatly prepares all her stuff in bowls first, unlike me who prefers one bowl (less washing you see.).
first we melt the butter and sugar. the black thing on top is vanilla!
it takes REALLY long to brown.....
once browned, we poured in almonds to cook till it reaches 130 degrees. bur since the thermometer she had goes up only to 100, we did a rough estimate. then we poured it into a pan and sprinkled chocolate on top which melted really fast and had to be evened out.

finally it was topped off with more crushed almonds, then left to cool before being put in the fridge. no idea how it tastes though, i'll have to ask hilde later.
while there we also played Hole in The Wall, a fun game for xbox if you have a kinect. I'd post pictures of alex playing it, but i think if he ever saw he might kill me? XD thankfully he didnt take pictures of me when i played. raymond served up christmas bread with brown cheese and butter. ironically, i hate raisins and brown cheese. but together, those were pretty tasty! alex says its because i was hungry it tasted better. i have to try it again hohoho

today, i completed the gift for mary's mother. its simpler to make compared to the one for robert's mother, but i like how it looks hehe. hope she'll like it.
other than that... not much else to my day, other than running around elnesvagen while mary and alex went to buy him sleeping pills (he's having trouble sleeping at normal times). it was fun because we were rushing rushing rushing. the area is so small and the shops we go to is where mary would frequent when there so we really had to hurry. luckily the pharmacy took long, because later when we met up again they had indeed been to that area of stores to shop hehehe

gonna go crochet a rug now!
