Hogmanay

[jennythereader]

In Glasgow and the central areas of Scotland, the tradition is to hold Hogmanay parties involving singing, dancing, the eating of steak pie or stew, storytelling and consumption of copious amounts of alcohol, which usually extend into the daylight hours of January 1.

This sounds eerily like the Harmony Drive New Year's Party to me. (Well, except for the dancing part.)

But then, the SCAdian members of the household are connected to Clan Campbell.

We celebrate Shogatsu with Master William and his family. It is January 1st. They tempura everything in the house and make sushi and it is super duper awesome.

Maybe someday I can go to Harmony Drive. But not until Johann is older and can crash somewhere other than home. Otherwise we would be leaving at 10, and that isn't much of a New Years Eve party.

Mmmm... sushi. That sounds like a great day.

Yeah, if you can't get him to fall asleep there, and you can't leave him with the grandparents, then it would be hard to go. I hope you guys have fun with your party and maybe you'll make it someday.

I look forward to when you can come. It's epic. :)

PROBABLY a coincidence ... but nifty.

To quote Arlo Guthrie "It's probably just a coincidence, but that's good enough for me."
