Reading My Way Around the World

Nollaig na mBan 2021

 


Nollaig na mBan - Women's Christmas or Little Christmas - the 6th January was the traditional day for women of the house to be released from all work duties after the 12 days of Yule.  The practice is still kept going down in Kerry and Cork and in recent years a woman in the town here has a regular women's party where we all bring leftovers.  Today we celebrate in the virtual world so I'm sending love and blessings to all my women friends around the world.
