Description


As it turns out life is complicated and messy and gritty and dirty. Call it simple or easy if you want, but you're lying to yourself to feel better. It's hard growing up in today's world, it's hard having friends who betray you or families that are hard to like. We all need those everlasting friends and those moments of clarity where we see our lives flash before us, and those times to be completely carefree. As we crash through the jungle of this life, we all steal a few hearts and break a few bones. But hey. That's life right?

Christmas 2007

Hi Everybody!
The Granath Christmas video letter will soon be on YouTube (Which is so BA) and I'll post my Annual Update soon too. This has been an incredible year, but the upcoming year looks to be even more phenomenal. 2008 holds a trip to India, my Senior Summer, college apps, CAMA Camp, Washington D.C., skiing at Heavenly, a Washington state trip, and more in store for me. I hope to see you all soon! By the way, happy birthday to Lacey, Pak and Drew, and Raquel and Steven, my December birthdays. Love you guys.

This is my first artwork ever posted online I think. Peter's Christmas present and my latest work.

Swedish Pancakes


In my family, at Christmas time we have Swedish pancakes. They're similar to the French Crepe, but a thousand times better. We use a secret family recipe to make ours, so I'm afraid I can't tell you or I'd have to kill you. The pancakes are small and round and eggy and taste AMAZING rolled around sausage or doused in lingonberry. They really are incredible. They're special though, and we're only allowed to have them at Christmas time.

My mom is cooking Swedish meatballs right now, which smell so. good. I just want to eat the scent that has permeated the entire house. Those are a secret recipe too, but I can tell you that ground beef and ground pork and bread chunks fry up to taste phenomenal. I can't wait to eat them.

Merry Christmas time to all and to all a good night!
