K is for Kitty Klaus
Please click on the link to watch my video, K is for Kitty Klaus. I named him Kitty Klaus because he was a Christmas present, and I always called my previous cat Kitty Kat even though it wasn't his name.
Kjerringsleppets- I belong to a book club at church called Kjerringsleppets. The name comes from a book I have not read, but that the group is rereading for October, The Dance of the Dissident Daughter by Sue Monk Kidd. It seems that during the Winter Olympics in Norway there was a point in which skiers were to ski out of the Norwegian woods carrying lit torches. Only male skiers were supposed to do this which irritated the female skiers. The female skiers hid in the woods and skied in out of the trees anyway. It became an image of female empowerment and a symbol of strength and vitality. Kjerringsleppets is translated as "women on the loose". These were women who "improvised, surprised, and came uninvited." Although all women are invited to this book group, I think the name is fitting. It is a group of remarkable, spirited, and intelligent women from all different backgrounds. Each month I learn about and from the women gathered at the table. I also love that the majority of the time is spent talking about the book.
