Christmas gnome

We were surprised to hear that there are people who had never seen a gnome. Here he is. Short, with long, white beard and pointed cap of a contrasting color. Somewhat shy. He comes from Scandinavia - in Norway and Denmark they call him nisse, in Sweden tomte. He looks after households, although can play tricks as well - fee for the work done can be essential sometimes! Don't forget to leave a bowl of buttered porridge for him - favorite delicacy. And then the gnome knocks at your door perhaps, to hand Christmas gifts over.
