Yule


Today is Yule or the winter solstice the shortest day of the year. I have a feeling that the sun stands still as such for a day or so, so the sun will actually rise a minute later tomorrow and set a minute later, but by Wednesday the day will be a minute longer. I'll make sure I use that minute wisely! So the long dark nights will get that little bit shorter, eventually. I like to celebrate Yule before the big festivities of Christmas begin. Today we had a quiet day. I cooked us a nice and very easy curry using the delicious curry sauce company jalfrezi sauce, then had ice cream and a lovely lush bath. Very relaxing.
