The orphanage will give fairies, gnomes and humans the possibility to adopt some of the abandoned children found in Leafenheim City. It has been decided that in order to adopt, you will have to sign a adoption paper. In most cases you will have to agree to take on a set of twins, because it is in the best interest of twins to grow up together!

As a child my granddad taught me how to interpret the old weather warnings based on observing wild life. If you want to know what the weather of the season is going to be like, watching the birds’ behavior will be a good indicator. In Denmark, it heralds a long and hard winter, if the Yellowhammer gathers around farms and houses. This winter a Yellowhammer has been visiting every day right outside my kitchen window. I think the first time I…

To have a fairy cottage in your kitchen might sound like an great idea, but if you have fairy twins living in the cottage you might want to find a better location, because it can be quite noisy, and at times the smell is unbelievable.
Ebbe reminds me a lot of my son when he was a boy. Besides taking his flying lessons, he is experimenting with recipes for healing potions for plants and animals. Yesterday I had been into town to do the last…

The Winter solstice celebrating takes place every year at the Gnomes Inn, and in the garden behind Apple Hold Castle. This celebration is a very old gnomish celebration that goes back to the time when the gnomes still lived in Valhalla. At that time there were no gifts, Santa Claus wasn’t born, and pancakes were a recipe jet to be invented. The gnomes have always been crafters, and they relied on fire for many of their crafts. Fire would provide…

The days are getting shorter and shorter every week here in Denmark. The Northern wind is howling in the tree tops and the nights are bitterly cold. Last night my apple trees dropped their last brown leaves in the heavy storm coming from the north. I couldn’t sleep, because some branches were banging on the roof. My bag door blow up and I had to go to the backside of the house to secure it. As I turned…

My name is Marianne, and I would like to invite you to Nidlongdir. Nidlongdir is a fairy realm I discovered in my garden. The word Nidlongdir is the fairies word for world, so they all live in Nidlongdir. There are two fractions of fairies in Nidlongdir, there are The Apple Fairies, ruled from Apple Hold Castle by a king and queen. Most of The Apple Fairies live in Leafenheim City. The other fraction of fairies is the Dragonians. The Dragonians live…

My name is Marianne and my fairy name is Ranunkel. I was born in Denmark in 1962 where I still live.
The only person in my family who truly believed in fairies and gnomes was my grandmother. As a child she asked me to bring stew and beer to the gnome living in the stable. She told me that if we didn't bring him food the pigs in the stable would become ill and die. I also remember one time when she got mad because my dad was supposed to help my granddad to cut down some trees…
