24 Festive Tasks: St. Lucia's Day

Square Eight

 

 

 


Book: Read a book set in Scandinavia / Northern Europe, by a Northern European / Nordic author, with a predominantly white cover (or white with red lettering), newly released in November or December of this year, or set in the candle-lit world (i.e., before the discovery of electricity – roughly, that is, before the late 19th century). 
 

The Storied Life of A.J.Fikry by Gabrielle Zevin (read by Scott Brick)

Task 1: Get your Hygge on — light a few candles if you’ve got them, pour yourself a glass of wine or hot chocolate / toddy, roast a marshmallow or toast a crumpet, and take a picture of your coziest reading place. Post a picture.

Pass.I'm just not feeling the Hygge right now.

Task 2: Guess (and strictly no googling!): Is the Gävle Goat (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%A4vle_goat) going to survive until after Christmas this year?

No, the goat is a goner this year.

Bonus Task: Nominate someone for sainthood. Who? Why?

My husband. Everyone says he has the patience of a saint -- and shouldn't there be at least some truth to the statement?
