Moving in gift

Birna came over yesterday for a little quality tasting of my baked goods. Approved, but I'm sure that practice will make perfect so told her it wont be the last time.

But with her she brought a moving in gift. Apparently according some icelandic tradition you should bring bread and salt when first time visiting a new place. Bread represents not ever running our of food and salt is for flavoring the porridge. Did I get it right? 


Also got a little bonus, two kitchen cloths and this one fits perfectly hanging over our stove. Love it! Thank you Birna!

This picture is just a bit off... since u can see not-so-limber-me in the reflection. Super charming hahaha!

  1. Vi har ju samma tradition i Finland med bröd och salt som inflyttningsgåva, visste du inte det?!

    1. Tyckte det lät bekant, men det är ju så länge sedan jag bott där ;).
