The boy got me a bottle of good sake from Japan, so I had to get proper glass including #Masu cup to experience the overflowing #sake. We will open the bottle when the boy comes home!
My Norwegian friend included this postcard in her recent letter. According to her, these small guys are called "Nisser" and they were believed to live in farms and help out farmers in exchange for food and drink. If they weren't paid, they'd get horrid and could even destroy your farm! Every Christmas they had to get rice porridge (grΓΈt) with butter. She said till this day some families set out porridge for Santa as we set out cookies and milk for him here in the U.S. I thought this was very interesting! In Norway, Santa is called Julenissen - Jule (Christmas) is from Yule, which she thinks is a pagan or old English. Nissers don't work for Santa, so they are not those little elves which we believe work at Santa's toy factory. She said Nissers are a big part of Norwegian art and literature, they are literally a piece of Norway. Apparently there is a Christmas song about rats trying to steal a Nisser's porridge. I LOVE this kind of stories! Thanks, Connie!β€οΈ
Day after Thanksgiving chores. Car maintenance, writing back, catching up with book club novel. Apparently I still had a free service left with my car. What a pleasant surprise! Waiting area coffee also shows bubbles of gold coins, guess fortunes are heading my way!π
Turkey gizzard, my favorite Thanksgiving food!π My turkey turned out perfect! Crispy skin and moist meat - the secret is potatoes π₯! (Trust me). This year has been a roller-coaster riding (nothing to do with me!) and everything was unpredictable from the beginning, but I swore myself that I would not let whatever is externally happening impact my life and I was pretty successful on that, so I am thankful for that most of all. Happy Thanksgiving to all of you out there! π¦
