Skyrgamur.....skyr gobbler
Skyrgamur......skyr-gobbler arrived today and made a straight line for the dairy, where he found a barrel of skyr* He gobbles down all the skyr and is rewarded with stomach aches and pains. He is heard far and near, as he cries out “I should not have eaten all the skyr”.
*Skyr is a dairy product similar to yogurt that has been an stable part of the Icelandic diet for more than 1100 years.

Oooh! I am intrigued by the skyr FO SHO! As long as it is not milky tasting (i cannot stand milk you see) I am all for all things yoghurty! Is it anything like kefir perhaps?
So hey, if I like it, Skyrgamur, you got yoself a fight! FO SHO!
At first I thought this said sky-gobbler
but by any name he's adorable
Lisa: It is so good....Whole Foods has it and we get it from time to time.
MizBohemia: I think you and Skyrgamur have a fight on your hands. It is like yogurt only much better :)
Rachael: LOL and thank you :)
There is my dear little Skyrgamur... just the way you made him :-) He is so cute, and has been behaving himself on my buffett. Mo'a you are lucky to have a supply of skyr available; I'm jealous. Our whole foods has nothing - no Icelandic lamb, nor skyr. Boo hoo. Did you read about Skyrgamur in Iceland who is in the hospital today after mistakenly drinking some paint he thought was his delicious skyr? (Icelandic Review)
I am learning all kinds of things about Iceland from your stories and wee characters.
Peace-
Linda
I love them and the story is wonderfullllllll as are the dolls of course...love sherry
hmmmmmmm...skyr...nammi!
He brought me a card game into my shoe;)
Minka took the "mmmmm....skyr" right out of my mouth! so, is this little Jolasveinar lactose intolerant? poor baby. xox
Well I know he's a mischevious little fellow - but he's so adorable I'd be sorely tempted to stock up on skyr just to tempt him!
