This evening, April 30 is
called "Valborgsmässoafton" in Sweden. People gather around large
bonfires and sing songs to welcome spring and the light (winter is a very long
and dark time of year in Sweden). This old tradition has its origins in Germany
where they used to light fires to scare off witches. F and I used to
celebrate this holiday partying with our friends, but this year we're staying
home with our own little family. Little Henry's aunt is coming over for dinner
tonight. She's a snusgirl too so I guess there will be some snus discussions
tonight because of the article in Aftonbladet that I wrote about yesterday. Her
favorite snus Catch Eucalyptus white dry portions is also on the list of snus flavors
that the EU commission wants to ban.
This was my 2 minutes of well-spent computer time, now it’s time to do the dishes, laundry, take a shower and cook dinner before this cute little sleeping baby starts crying for attention again.
Wishing you all a happy Valborg!
