This has been another peaceful day of Romjul...
It has been lovely... the kids playing in the snow... drying the cloths by the fire... sipping hot chocolate... so hygge... drying the clothes by the fire always reminds me of the scene in one of my favourite movies, It's a wonderful life!
Romjul (middle
Christmas), is a Norwegian term
for the period between Christmas and New Years
Day.
Romjula is...
a peaceful time...
home sheltering...
holiday activities...
quietly working on projects...
school free...
special family visits...
holiday foods...
enjoying family time...
tranquil living...
reflection♥
Outdoor activities are followed by hygge to gather together in comfort and warmth.
We prepare for Romjula
ahead of time by stocking up on the foods and comforts of the season.
Even the Christmas presents we exchange also go to
support the period of Romjul, such as clothes, candles, blankets, beverages, books,
games and more recently, electronics.
Bread... that this house may never know hunger.
Salt... that life may always have flavor.
And wine... that joy and prosperity may reign forever.
~Mary and George Bailey
... and now we are warming up near the fire... sipping hot chocolate... eating mandarin oranges with baked goods and enjoying family time... It truly is a wonderful life♥
