Happy Lughnasadh.

Do you make corn dollies?

They scare me!

Trilby · 08-01-2011, 01:20 PM

Well, obviously!

That's an IRISH corn dolly! They scare everyone!

Bairn of the Corn?

(But that's scottish, right? Still couldn't resist the yoke.)

There wolf, there castle ...

Yes, I do make corn dollies, but not terribly consistently. I missed on them this year, for example.

It's been busy.

Thanks for the Lughnassadh or however the heck it's spelled greetings. That's why I usually call it Lammas.

What I've always wanted to make are Brigid's Crosses, but I tend to be short on wheat stalks and have never done it.

Brigid is my confirmation name.
As I got older I liked the ambivalence.

It's never too late! you've got all of August coz the corn went in so late due to all the rain.

I know you've been playing nurse advocate for your friend - but if you have some time, make a dolly! It'll be good!
