Gingerbread baking

Today's baking project was a bit different as their friend came with the dough. So Momo-chan and Pinga just needed to cut them out. Pingu was in charge of putting them in and out from the oven. It was not easy as they are thin and could easily be burnt.

Momo-chan and Pinga were at their friends place this afternoon. It was afternoon tea with baked two different kinds of pies. Strawberries with wild berries and apple pie. Mmm tasty!

Santa is coming

A couple of days ago Pingu spotted this Santa climbing onto a balcony in downtown Lund. He is a bit early but maybe that is a good thing.

Trike!

Today they had an old friend over for dinner. He came over on his trike. Momo-chan was very interested so he got to try it out a bit.

Today both Momo-chan and Pinga went to the dentist. Here is Momo-chan on the dentist chair. All his 20 milk teeth are there and looks good! It is not cold inside but it was a quick visit so the overall stayed on.

Because they turned out so well,  they baked saffron buns again. Momo-chan was not as interested in helping this time.

Making saffron buns!

Last weekend Pingu, Pinga and Momo-chan baked saffron buns. They turned out very well (all of them are gone now) so I guess they should do them again.

Santa hat

Momo-chan's old santa hats are too small so Pingu and Momo-chan went to get a new one. Momo-chan was happy and wore it straight out of the store.
