Seventh Yule lad, Door Slammer (December 18th)

Last time, on the 17th of December, we had our guest Bowl Licker over. He caused some ruckus, but no-where near as the current one will cause no doubt. But if you want to know more about Bowl Licker, click here.  Today, comes my favorite Yule lad, who is none other, but Door Slammer himself. Oh yeah, I think his name says everything  there is to know about him. He. Likes. To. Slam. Doors!! Especially at night, that asshole xD  The seventh was Door Slammer, a sorry, vulgar chap: When pe

Sixth Yule lad, Bowl Licker (December 17th)

Last time, on the 16th of December, we hat Pot-Scraper visiting town  Check him out here .  But today we will be meeting Bowl Licker (Askasleikir in Icelandic), I think his name should be quite obvious. He hides under beds and waits for people to put down a special bowl known as "Askur" (a bowl with a lid on it) down and then he steals it and eats whatever he finds down there.... hopefully if it is edible.    Bowl Licker, the sixth one, was shockingly ill bred. From underneath the

Fifth Yule lad, Pot-Scraper (December 16th)

Last time, we had Spoon-Licker stay over with us. Check him out here.  Aaaaaand today comes the arrival of our fifth Yule lad, Pot-Scraper (Pottaskefill). He steals pots and scrapes for leftovers in them to eat. What a guy indeed :'D  Pot Scraper, the fifth one, was a funny sort of chap. When kids were given scrapings, he´d come to the door and tap     Stay tuned for our next Yule lad who arrives tomorrow on the 17th of December

Fourth Yule lad, Spoon Licker (December 15th)

As always, another Yule lad visits town and this time it is Spoon Licker. Our last one was Stubby, be sure to check him out~ Our fourth one is Spoon Licker (Þvörusleikir in Icelandic). He steals wooden spoons known as "þvörur" and he licks whatever is left on it. He is extremely thin due to malnutrition xD    The fourth was Spoon Licker;  like spindle he was thin.  He felt himself in clover  when the cook wasn´t in.   The next Yule lad will arrive tomorrow on t

Third Yule Lad, Stubby (December 14th)

It is time for our next Yule lad. Our last one was Gully Gawk who you can see in this blog. Today on December the 14th comes Stúfur (Stubby) visiting town and he is quite the little fella! He likes to hide, using his small size and he will find pans to steal and scrape off any food leftovers he can find to eat.  Stubby was the third called, a stunted little man, who watched for every chance to whisk off a pan.   Stay tuned for the next Yule Lad who arrives on the 15

All the rest of the Yule Lads together December 13th - 24th

As some of you may have known, I was terribly busy, both because of the voluntary ban for MCM (Making Christmas Merrier) and then because of my vacation to Morocco which I must say, was a really pleasant experience, and I will make a blog about that as well later   However, I do not intend to leave you off with no information about the rest of the Yule lads. We still have 11 left to go through, so here they come (Warning: Expect a lot of photos). Link to the Previous Yule lad, Gully Gawk

Hey guys, it is time for the second upload for our next Yule lad who comes later today . I am posting this a little bit earlier as I might be a bit away :please: If you missed the previous entry, here is a link to it   But our next Yule lad who arrives today, is Gully Gawk (Giljagaur in Icelandic) Now Gully Gawk would wait in gullies until all humans would be out of sight, and then he would come forth and steal all the milk there was in each home               The second was Gully

Icelandic Yulelads, the first one Sheep-Cote Clod (December 11th)

Well hello there people of all ages, boys and girls . This blog is about Santa Clauses. Now, many of you may be familiar with your own type of Santa Claus from your own region. However, here in Iceland, we in fact have 13 Santa Clauses, who arrive separately each night from December the 11th to December 24th, when the last one comes to town. And then they all start departing from town, one by one until January the 6th .   Today, the Yulelads are known for being kind, bearing gifts to g
