Hello gemeente.

This week we have three nice days in a row.

The nice traditions these days come from the catholic era in Iceland.

Monday: Bolludagur (bunny day) The whole nation eats cream buns:

a soup with salted lamb, yellow split peas, turnips, bacon, etc. “Eat untill you burst”

A very nice week, but not a suitable week to start on a diet.

Regards
