Weekend...

...at least it's called that. We were very busy, baking for 3 confirmations and one baptism. As you can imagine, there was very little time left for doing what we wanted to do. Hjördís was invited to a Eurovisionparty Saturday evening and stayed overnight in Hólmavað. I think it would have been rather boring for her, to watch us baking and decorating. She was already really patient on Friday evening/Saturday morning when we started to bake. Alltogether it was 60 breadloafs, 2 chocolatecakes, 2 kransakaka, one big strawberrycake and one chocolatecreamcake. While Ingólfur was baking, I made chocolatehorses for Iðunn's cake and butterflies for Dagný Anna's, which worked out really well. This morning I tried to do some Winnie the Pooh pics with chocolate, but I have to admit, it was more difficult than I thought.

After baking and eating and more baking we both took part in a small competition, but none of us made it to the finals. In my opinion, the track was far too hard to go fast tölt or pace and a lot of horses didn't pace at all. My best pace was on the way home with completely loose rein.

Later we took a drive to Helluland, visited Sigtýr, who came straight away to get some treats, had a look at the colourful lambs, got coffee and ended our visit in the cowshed, where one of the cows is taking care of feeding 4 calves in a very big box. None of the calves is hers, but she has clearly a favourite, who gets a good, thorough cleaning with her huge tongue now and then. Not sure he enjoys it as much as she does.
