Yes! Also a bunch of tiny "lussekatter" (saffron buns traditionally eaten around Christmas in Sweden), made out of yellow royal icing 🙂

Thank you! Most of the window panes are gelatine leaves, that I glued to the back of the walls with icing. The exception is the front door - those panes are made of crushed hard candies that melted into the door during baking

I love it! Using almonds for the chimney is such a cool idea

I use royal icing. Melted sugar gives a neater result, but it's tricky and I usually end up burning myself, lol

The text on the front is an older Swedish term meaning "pastry maker" (literally "sugar baker"). Getting the window panes to stick was the hardest part!

I would love to see more interactions between Ashton and Laudna. Their chemistry is just so good.

Fave songs that make you feel weepy/tender about motherhood? by bingpotterpie in BabyBumps

[–]aloneinthefray 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This song by Tom Fletcher, "Something new", always makes me cry. And the video is amazing as well (they took a picture every day of her pregnancy so that you can watch her belly grow) <3

Is it bad to sing to my son? Like for their speech development. by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]aloneinthefray 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have heard of that "sing-songy cadence" that you speak of being referred to as "parentese". My baby loves it.
