Ten T’ousand Svedes ran tru da veeds Chased by vun Norvegian Ten t’ousand more ran to da shore In da battle of Copenhagen.
Vay, vay back in history Back ven da vorld vas new Norvegians searched all over To find some snoose to chew.
Dey fished for Lutefisk and Torsk It helped to make dem strong And you and me, ve know a Norsk Cannot do nutting wrong.
But Svedes and Danes were envious Of Viking trips and raids Da Viking shields and helmet horns Made all dose folks afraid.
T’roughout da world da Vikings sailed To Ireland and to France |

We have a pet peeve ~ we find it difficult to learn about Scandinavian and Scandinavian-American Events in our Region. We want to change that ~ so ~ the following is our proposal: Send us your link to your website ~ and/our event info ~ and we will gladly post it on our website. We naturally appreciate reciprocation on your side. We need each other ~ so let's partner up and together, keep our roots strong.
This will certainly assist in growing our businesses ~ growing memberships in our lodges ~ and as a valuable resource to our communities ~ keep us visible for those interested in exploring and/or embracing their heritage. |

Long ago in the land of vikings and trolls In the kongelig fylke known as Valdres The most famous of all the gnomes was known as the Beitogubben. He lived in the skog On the edge of the fjell And only came out When darkness fell Hans met him one dark cold night In the vinter When there is no light And the gubben said to Hans "don't be afraid I am a nice gammel troll but I get moody in the darkness of vinter... in exchange for your baked kringle |

WOW ~ We just had a whirlwind weekend in Fairfield, CT ~ at the exciting VIking Re-Enactment Fest at the Scandinavian Club ~ Kudos to Carol Skog and her fabulous team of volunteers ~ for the Planning and Execution of this amazing event.
As a vendor, we were happy with the turnout ~ we were happy to see old friends and aquaintances ~ while building relationships with new customers and making new friends.
We also converted "a few" Swedes to embrace the Norwegian tradition of Norwegian "vafler" with Sour Cream and Strawberry Jam ~ LOL ~ although we ensured we were geared up with Whipped Cream today for the "non-converts". |
