When I lived in NY I had a dear friend who was born in Norway. Her family had a home in Norway that they visited every three years. She brought me back a mug and a bowl from one of her trips. I keep them on my desk where I can see them every day. I remember visiting her once when she was grinding almonds and making a traditional Kransekake cake. She had some lovely embroidery framed in her home as well. The Lord only granted her a little over fifty years on earth, and I treasure the memories of her and her heritage and faith in Christ. Thanks for sharing the special birthday celebration of your dear friend, and the interesting information about your heritage. xxGracie Saylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09499163425742659172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6253212297341074368.post-86796603078193254262016-10-07T08:19:10.104-07:002016-10-07T08:19:10.104-07:00Happy Birthday to Laila!

The cakes look wonderful and the traditional embroidery is very pretty. Interesting to read about the lodges - as you know we have a large Scandinavian population here and I have seen these lodges in my area. It's always so nice to honor your heritage this way.
