The 6th of January is Womens Little Christmas! (affectionately known as Little Womens Christmas!) In Irish it's called "Nollaig na mBan" and celebrates women who could finally celebrate after all the work over the christmas season! I thought it was an Irish thing but apparently it's a local Cork thing! Even better! ;) My mum generously invited me and my sister (in the photo) for dinner in the city. I brought them roses each which they loved so hence this picture! :) Thanks ladies!!

That sounds like an excellent thing to celebrate... I wish someone would introduce that tradition in England too... they both look delighted with their roses! Annbramwell · 2012-01-07: 13:40

Another vote for this great tradition to start in the USA... "Womans Little Christmas" - I love it. StephaniesStudio · 2012-01-07: 17:03
