Two separerat girls living two totally different lives find each other. One is just an ordernary girl from Sweden and the other one is the famous popstar Billie Eilish. This is a story about their relationship. The up's and downs and finding safety...
It's December 1st today and Billie and I are on a mission to buy a Christmas tree.
"Where do you get christmas trees here in LA?" I ask Billie.
"You just buy them outside stores, they are everywhere. Like outside Walmart or else"
"Hm, okay. It's pretty similar to Sweden then. But in Sweden if you own a forest or know someone that does then you just go there and grab one" I say and Billie laughs at me.
We arrive and Billie parks her car besides the other ones in the parking lot before we step out. We walk around all the different trees and finally picks out one.
"Do you wanna make cookies when we get home?" Billie asks me and I nod eagerly.
"We can make pepparkakor!" I tell her and she looks at me confused.
"It's a swedish gingerbread cookie, it's called pepparkakor. Peppar means pepper and kakor means cookies, but it's kinda weird because you don't put pepper in them. And you can easily make them vegan and gluten free!" I clarify.
"Okay that's a bit weird, like the rest of the Swedish culture... But seriously bro, you guys talk so cute! It sounds like you're singing when you're talking, it's adorable!"
"I wish I could say the same" I mock her and she laughs at me.
When we get home again Billie and I put the Christmas tree in the living room before we start baking the cookies.
"Okay, what do we need?"
"We need... Butter, syrup, sugar, water, flour, bicarbonate, cinnamon spice, ginger spice, carnation spice and cardamom spice" I read from the recipe.
"And that's supposed to turn into cookies? Why are there so many spices? Add a bit of curry and it sounds more like some Indian food"
"Trust me on this one love" I tell her peck her lips.
We mix everything together and then roll it out to a thin dough.
"Do you have any cookie cutters? In Sweden we have these special pepparkaks cookie cutters that are shaped like hearts, stars and different things"
"I think we have some heart shaped one's?" Billie says and routs out a heart shaped cookie cutter.
1 hour later.
"Look! And you can also decorate them with icing if you want to. But they taste just as good without" I say as I pull out the last baking sheet of pepparkakor from the oven.
"I crave cookies right now so we'll skip the decorating part hahah" Billie says.
We put the pepparkakor on a plate and takes them to the living room for Patrick and Maggie to also taste.
