Hopeful Hygge Holiday- A December Advent - GENE SWITCH UP EVERYDAY
  • Hopefull Hygge Holiday- A December Advent
    Joyous winter Holidays to everyone! This December we have a whole new advent and advent tack pack. Starting tomorrow the 1st of December the advent page will open up. Each day you will get a new advent event, and a new tack item unlocked for our VERY cozy winter holidays this year.

    Nd1 is already for sale, and the new ice 15 gene will be out in a few days. Both of these will be permanent sales through out December.

    Furthermore there will be 3 random gene sales every day. That's right gene switch up will be every single day in December!





    What is Hygge?
    "Hygge is a Danish and Norwegian word for a mood of coziness and comfortable conviviality with feelings of wellness and contentment"

  • Oh my gosh!!!!! I'm so freaking excited, this is awesome!

    (RIP my wallet though, but shh O:-) )

  • COOL! My family used to celebrate our Norwegian roots at Christmas every year. We've all spread out now, but this weekend my brother and sister in law will be here for our 'traditional' dinner. While I don't think it actually happens in Scandinavia our family version involves a rolled up meat "sausage" called rule polsa, and a, sort of, 'potato crepe/tortilla' called lefsa. I spent yesterday making rule polsa and Chex Mix, and my brother is bringing lefsa he made! PERFECT timing, Ammit!

    How do you pronounce Hygge?

    Don't forget, everybody: Secret Santa kicks off Saturday!

  • Got curious about how to say this Scandinavian word and located two successive You-Tube videos that start here: https://www.google.com/search?q=hygge+pronunciation&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-b-1. What fun!

    Thanks, Ammit. You always have such lovely notions.

  • @ConfluenceFarms I love lefsa! But do not try lutefisk!
  • So excited! I have been stocking up on horses for new genes. It will be so hard deciding which ones to get. I want them all! $-)
  • Oh wow, this sounds amazing! I too have gotten a few horses with the intent to pretty them up for my secret santa, this will help so much!

    As I am of Norwegian descent on my dad's side, and used to speak fluent Norwegian, when I saw the word "Hygge", I immediately heard it in my head. pronounced Hiuggeh (Better to go to Google translate and enter it there - it's a very unique word). I love Rullepolse and Pinnekjøtt , Gjetost and Lefsa ♥♥, but was never a fan of the dreaded lutefisk. I lived in Norway for a year (School year 1986-87), and miss it still.

    When I saw the pattern for "Hopeful Hygge Hug" I became pretty excited.
    Klemme is the Norwegian word for Hug, pluralized, it's Klemmer

    Mange Klemmer fra mei!! (Many hugs from me ♥)

  • Aghhhhh I can’t wait, the advent calendar was so much fun last year I can’t wait to see what I get with this one! I also have Norwegian roots so this is super exciting for me also! :D :D :D

  • Awesomenesss
  • Xceptional & DoubleMash, So cool! I went to college in Lindsborg, Kansas, a town called Little Sweden USA. VERY Scandinavian, and they used to try and feed us lutefisk, so we all know the yuckiness that is lutefisk!

  • It was a Tack Pack that allowed us to open up a new tack item every day. Last year it included a dinosaur skating rink, ice skates for our horses, the Gift cat with a pile of presents for the lower right corner and other nifty delights. I can't wait to see what Ammit has up her sleeve for us this year.

  • So awesome! I'm excited! May have to miss out on the RGS, unless I have an overly generous Secret Santa, but I'm not hoping or wishing they'd buy the things for me, for sure. Just stating facts here.
    Love,

  • Aww it's a bad time to be in the hospital! :(
  • This is awesome! Thanks so much Ammit and a wonderful, warm and merry Christmas to you!
  • Sounds amazing! Can't wait for my first HJ2 Advent!

    (Moved from Germany to the US almost 9 years ago. "Advent", December 1st through 24th is one of the things I miss the most).
  • Thank-you Ammit! This will be amazing!

  • I'm so excited! I just have 3 genes (besides Ice 15) left to get to have all the closed genes! I really hope to see Ice 3, 11, and 12 :D If i can make it work financially, i would love to get more Ice 7. All my lower gen stock are passing out of the game :'(
  • YAY!!!!! can't wait
