Help us celebrate our new home!

I will send the address via e-mail, but you have to RSVP to get it.

We will be serving glögg, a Swedish version of mulled wine, traditionally enjoyed before Yule. Cold weather makes it taste better, but who knows what we'll get. I hope to provide a non-aloholic version for the kiddies and responsible sober folks.We'll also have the standard glögg side dishes: gingerbread biscuits and bleu cheese.

This afternoon party will also help you get ready for Saints game that night. Feel free to pass by briefly or stay a while.

I'm trying to think of a simple house-blessing ritual that everyone could participate in. Sometimes everyone's invited to bring a penny and put it in a cup which is then saved so the house never goes broke. Something like that — just haven't hit on the right idea yet. Feel free to suggest something.
