Love this weekend's engagement topic.
As I am very bad at drawing, I used the computer to create my card. I wanted to share a very unique tradition we have here in Catalonia, north of Spain. I don't know anywhere else in the world they have it and it is definitely not a religious one.
It is only for kids and you can translate it as "uncle log".
They sell these "creatures" all over the city and kids have to feed them days before Christmas. Then they sing a song on Christmas day and "uncle log" brings presents.
If you are curious about this unique story, just watch this very short video where Viggo Mortensen explains it in Late Night Show.
Here's the wikipedia entry so you can even read the song kids sing to get presents 😂
