Hello again, sorry for my absence! Had a great weekend in Norway with all the kids from 12 countries, language barriers and the lot had to be crossed and it was done in a great way, especially by the kids! I was coaching a mixed team, i.e. a team with one player from each country and we were going strongly into the mixed tournament! Great attitude, but a bit unlucky.. We didnt win but I was soo proud of my boys and girls! Came home with great memories and feeling happy and content.. Now its time to plan a new football challenge, but this time its my own event! I am going huge and will do a football tournament for my fundraising, and have invited teams from around the business park where I work so I hope that it will work out fine! Knee is healing now, so I can go out and enjoy the lovely crispy autumn weather in London! Team 9, Mixed Tournament at MTG United for Peace Cup 2011, Oslo. Ciao!

Cinnamon buns and football!

All teams outside Nobel Peace Center after the Peace Walk, before the finals, 2010 http://www.mtgunitedforpeace.com/news/final-here-%E2%80%93-finally Cinnamon buns! So Im now officially a 'bun-mama' as we call them in Sweden.. Bullmamma! I have baked cakes, cinnamon buns, and sold them at the office. They werent great, but still its my 1st or 2nd try, so Im quite pleased anyway.. And, I got 10 pounds for them, so Yeah! :) I still have a swollen knee from my fall a few weeks ago, so my exercise hasnt been too great lately, but as it got worse after my interval runs on Thursday, I thought Id leave it for a while.. So, I baked cinnamon buns instead, and I bet you they were a bit too nice to keep away from even if they looked like mini buns with too much flour.. Ah well, I didnt eat too much, so my healthy diet is still on track :) This week has been superbusy, Im going to Oslo with work to volunteer on our MTG United for Peace Tournament for kids that is held this weekend.
