littlepot's snowflakes

Ask me anything   About   

My snowflakes:
winter, snow, nordic stuff (landscape, mythology, anthropology, etc.), (black) cats, owls, mysteries... falling on the ground.

I'm desperately in love with languages and etymology, and yes, with folklore and hidden meanings. Any suggestion is very welcome!

My favourite flower: in Italian it’s also called “rose of Christmas” (particularly the white one). Otherwise, it’s called helleborus (Latin i.e. botanical name).
The simplest one is Helleborus Niger, which actually is the white and most common one; also there is the green one which is one I love, and is extremely rare, which is called Helleborus foetidus because it doesn’t “smell properly” :)
