This is our Christmas tree 2018:
Catastrophes, wars, terrorism, ecological disasters, deadly diseases, poverty .... The list of tragedies - both personal and public - is endless. Every day and hour media, politicians, experts - and charlatans - bring us a never ending barrage of bad things. No wonder that many people feel depressed and weary. This blog tries - in a modest and personal way - to contribute to a more balanced view. After all, there is so much to appreciate and enjoy in life ...

Finnish Christmas pastry
These traditional Finnish pastries have been my favourites since my early childhood ... :-)
A joulutorttu (Finnish lit. "Christmas tart", Swedish jultårta; sometimes known as tähtitorttu "star tart") is a Finnish Christmaspastry. It is traditionally made from puff pastry in the shape of a star or pinwheel and filled with prune jam and often dusted with icing sugar. The pastries can be in other shapes and apple used in place of the prune jam. (Wikipedia)
