Well damn... My ideas... xd Item: Yule Log Equip: Hands or Home Item Description: "The word yule meant "infant" in the language of the Chaldeans, who lived in the Middle East. The Germanic tribes of Northern Europe, including the Anglo Saxons, celebrated "Yule-day" or "Child's Day." The custom of the Yule log has been noted in France and Italy as far back as the 1200s. It later spread throughout Europe. On Christmas Eve an enormous log would be cut and placed in the hearth. The log would be sprinkled with salt, oil, and mulled wine, and prayers said to protect the house from the Devil and lightning. In some regions, the daughters of the family lit the log with splinters of the previous year's log. In other regions, the lady of the house had the honor of lighting the log. As iron stoves replaced giant hearths in the 1800s, Yule logs became decorative, often being used as Christmas centerpieces and decorated with evergreens and candles. Cooks began creating pastry Yule logs, rolled cakes covered in chocolate or coffee and decorated with sugared holly and roses." ~Yule Log reference linkage Type: Avie and Town Home Item Function: Equips on either hand or could also be something to place on your Home's door, a shelf, on a desk... etc. Suggested Category: Christmas Event Items "Seduce my mind and you can have my body.
