Name: Dirne-Weible, means “Little Serving Maiden”
Origin: Bavaria
Description: Faerie dressed in red with a basket in
apples. In Germany, the Dirne-Weible is a type of Wood Wife dressed completely
in white.
Disposition: The Dirne-Weible is a kind faerie. If she gives you her apples, they will turn
into money. She is also very sensitive. She’ll want to go for a walk with you. If you refuse, she’ll run bawling into the
forest.
I don’t know about
you, but I’ve read enough fairytales to never trust a woman with apples. How about you?
Nice post, Buff.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Nina!
DeleteLOL... I'm with you. She can keep the fruit!
ReplyDeleteI know!
DeleteNope, no apples from strangers for me. :)
ReplyDeleteI have a no food or drink from strangers policy. I don't go around drinking things that say "Drink Me" on them either!
DeleteI'm with everyone here and I'll stay away from a beautiful or old woman offering apples.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, Suzie!

Deleteinteresting! yeah, I think i'd run in the other direction if a stranger offered me apples:)
