  1. this is beautiful, and i'm glad i finally know what the day is about!

    my singing group at New York University is singing a version of 'Godmorgon mitt herrskap' for our winter concerts this week (there is a woman in the group from Stockholm!). It is such a lovely song - but difficult to learn the Swedish pronunciation.

    anyway, I hope you have a wonderful holiday :D

  9. Thanks for the link Anette. I did not know about this tradition.
    My mother, Lucy, died last year due to a surgery. She was a big Nightwish fan, so it makes me comfortable to know that you comemore a date with her name, even though this wasn't the initial purpose. Nightwish music has helped me a lot during these difficult times (I was 13 at that time).
