Good morning Everyone It's a Second Day of Christmas in Poland where I grew up. People go to mass and continue their Christmas celebration (eat, drink and be merry). Second Day of Christmas is the day to visit relatives and friends. I recall getting drunk around lunch time and remaining in that happy drunk celebratory state till coming home late at night it sure was fun! Here in Texas it is day like every day minus the school for kids. Either way it's ok. I woke up late reminiscing on those Polish Christmases... It took me some time in the adulthood to realize that it's not the tree and decorations that make this holiday so special. I hope All of you Guys my TFO Friends have had a nice Christmas holiday.
Oh and completely forgot to wish @Tigdy'sDad a happy "Adam and Eve's Day" that was on 12/24! Yes! That's another Polish tradition that until moving to the States I never realized was confined only to my small country in the middle of Europe. Every day in the calendar is assigned a name or a male and female name, and on that day we'd celebrate a Name Day... The way I see it it's just another way for people to get together, bring flowers, eat, drink and have a great time partying. The only reason I remember Adam's name day is because mine was on this same day. Happy belated... named day, Adam!❤️

How lovely! A Jade Plant for... Jade! Jade plant is hard to kill, it loves lits of light, light porous soil and not too much water, let the soil dry between watering and never let the roots sit in water. The plant should thrive
Damn! Autocorrect! Hate this thing! And sometimes love it too. It's not a NAMED DAY, it's a NAME DAY. John's is on 6/24 (feast of st John), people in Poland used to name their kids with only those "calendar names"I missed out on that one while I was there!!!!!

Thank you! That was very sweet
it's not a jade a don't think, we have a couple of them
it does resemble jade though and doesn't say what it is :/
Lovely idea, also a little limiting at the same time.
