October 18th, 2007 · No Comments

I know I keep mentioning that the holidays are just around the corner (because I am being reminded everywhere!). And that means buying costumes and candy for Halloween ( do they have trick-or-treaters in Norway? I need to find out! ). Then its Thanksgiving, and then the most expensive one of all Christmas.
