Holiday Season 2023 - 4 Days to Go

Countdown to Christmas - 4 Days

Today is the Winter Solstice.

I set the angels out today. 




Mom and I went to the American Swedish Institute to see the holiday displays. 



We checked out the display of Himmeli. Shown above are a couple examples. Himmeli predate the Christmas tree and they were traditionally suspended in a dining or living space during the Winter Solstice. They remained in place until the summer months to help ensure a good harvest. 



Mom got to sit in the Snow Queen chair. 


Mom got some ornaments in the gift shop. I got this kick ass PINK dala horse. Who knew they came in pink?


Dale and I went to Creekside Supper Club for dinner. It was delicious. Dale had the chicken breast and I had the fish fry with walleye. I had a Grasshhopper for dessert.
