Today is Bóndadagur, or Husband’s Day, when wives and girlfriends in Iceland pamper their men. Bóndadagur also marks the beginning of the old Icelandic month of Thorri, during which the Thórrablót mid-winter feasts are held across the country.
In many households, Bóndadagur is celebrated with eating the traditional Thorri food, dried fish, smoked lamb, putrefied shark and soured blood and liver pudding along with other soured meat products, including ram testicles. The delicacies are often washed down with a shot or two of brennivín, Icelandic schnapps.
On This day we ladies should treat our men as Kings!
I don't celebrate this day by eating or giving Hilmir Thorri food but I make it up with a little surprise and I can't tell you what it is, cause you know... He's right here...!! :) We women also have a day of our own called Konudagur ( Woman-day ).
23. February and that's our day to be spoiled!
This is my man... My King... My Everything!!! :)
