Or you can take what's behind door number 3

Previously I've posted about my advent calendar. What I have not mentioned is the vaguely bitter dissatisfaction with the Christmas Eve door. This night is the BIG night for us. We have always celebrated Scandinavian-style with Christmas Eve being the day for presents and family and a big dinner. All the traditions are tonight. So the importance of this day should be reflected in what is revealed by the "24" door on the advent calendar. Alas, no:

What made it worse was that my sister's door number 24 had a glowing Christmas tree behind it. So unfair!

That's what you get for buying an American Advent calendar ;)

I'll have you know, Bente V, that this is a GERMAN Advent calendar.
