Amazing Northern Lights show
Last night we had the most beautiful Northern Lights show we have seen at Minna-Mosfell Guesthouse for quite a time. They danced back and forth above us in many different shades of colors.
It is always magnificent to stand outside in the dark and look at such an incredible show!
Our friend, Malín Brand took this beautiful picture last night at Stíflisdalsvatn.
It is just 10 min. away from from our farm.
Traditional Christmas baking at Minna-Mosfell
Last weekend I started baking for the Christmas Season. I always start the Christmas preperation by baking very traditional layer cakes, both white and brown.
The white one has always homemade rhubarb jam between the layers. Between the brown layers I put icing. Our guests have already tasted the cakes and liked very well.
I love to be able to introduce our guests to our traditions.
My plan for this Christmas Season is to finish as much work before the end of November, to be able to enjoy the Advent as much as possible.
Minna-Mosfell Guesthouse is run by a small family of 6 who bought the farm in 2019.
