I’m from the UK and my partner is from the States. Every year she has the kids leave milk and cookies out for Santa, which I find odd because we left out sherry and a mince pie in my house. At the same time, we live in Scandinavia and I’m sure the Christmas gnome (julenissen) is unhappy about the lack of porridge.

    that’s super adorable. when she turns legal drinking age, you should pour for her the same amount, telling her “it’s only half a glass, daughter”.

      TBF I saw a guy in Scotland drink a dirty pint when he turned 18. It had a different shot in it for every year of his life +1 for luck (bad luck as it turned out). Topped off with tenants lager. He was not well.
