Little Christmas, Women’s Christmas, the Feast of the Epiphany…
Times have changed, but the tradition lives on.
Happy Little Christmas everyone!
*Or Women’s Christmas. Or Little Christmas. Or Women’s Little Christmas.
Historically, societies assumed that women did the caring and men were breadwinners. While things are changing, the responsibility for work within the home still falls predominantly to women.
Many councils have opened up centres where the public can dispose of their trees for free.
Little Christmas – yay or nay?
What goes up, must come down.
Little Christmas is known as Nollaig na mBan in many parts of Ireland as traditionally exhausted women relaxed with a cuppa as the men took over housekeeping duties – for one day only.
