Bro and I went to this!
Mikelis Day is celebrated during the autumn solstice, when the sun turns towards winter - this is the time when daytime and nighttime is the same length and the astronomical autumn sets in. This is an important time of the year for farmers, when the most important jobs have been completed before winter and it is time to celebrate the harvest. Market squares will be full of Latvian grown pumpkins, apples, pears, cranberries, cowberries and much more. The ladies of the house will be offering homemade jams, cheeses, traditional pastries and home-basked bread. Everyone will be able to enjoy and purchase fresh honey, as well as smoked meats and fish. Meanwhile, local craftsmen will also be on hand offering traditional and contemporary linens, ceramics, jewelry, wooden items and much, much more.
I bought some home made Latvian rye bread (1/2 loaf - can't eat it all myself!), and some GIANT gingerbread cookies for presents. Going to try & post the picture of the cookies - attaching pictures today hasn't gone well. Let's see....

Harmony - he looks like Lurch! Quite a difference from court!
I know his acts of deprevity that he committed deserve the DP, but would it not be better for the Bobo's for LWOP. That way they don't have to worry about any kind of appeals. I don't know.... we shall see!
See you all in about a little over an hour! :wave: Need to get caught up on my other cases.
