As the week is coming to an end, which means that Friday is right here, and the days are getting darker, tt's time to talk about fredagsmys! As you may know, or not, fredag means Friday and mys is the word for coziness in Swedish. Sweden, being such a mysig country, it would be weird to use cozy instead. Don't you think? After working the entire week, what everyone wants to do when Friday comes is coze up a bit and relax. So that is why Swedes have fredagmys! And there is even a "typical" way of celebrating it!
For many Swedes, it is all about tacos or godis (sweets), or even both! On one side, there is a kind of tradition where they just relax with their family or friends or even alone and watch TV with some popcorns or godis. On the other side, they have the hidden rule that Fridays are for tacos or as they call it taco-fredag. This one is kind of fun and cute, I think. They just prepare the ingredients for the tacos and put each of them into a tiny bowl, a plate with the tortillas and the frying pan with the meat and sauce, as in the photo. Or maybe you guys can do both. I've never done it like that, but why not? ;)

I particularly like to mix both: I have taco-fredag while I watch some movie or series and have some candles on. It truly depends on the person, so other types of fredagsmys different to these two are always allowed. Which one are you gonna choose?
Hope you guys enjoyed this post and show me if you did any of this! How are your fredagsmys? Are you planning on making this your new tradition?
