Anyone connected Odin's Santa guise with the doughnuts yet?

I allways though the donughts were a message from odin for harry to contact Mab.

now you've got a scene from The Graveyard Book stuck in my head.
I'm sort of hoping that Mother Winter isn't Death.

I really am not sure of the donuts, but i wrote a paper on norse mythology once. One of my favorite papers from college too, research was just plain fun. Knowing just a little bit about norse mythology i cant place the donuts, but in light of cold days the peppermint tea makes me smile still when i read it.

Harry obviously agrees with you since he called her Atropos which was the Fate that cut the thread. I have been wondering about this. Mother Summer aludes to the fact that they (she and MW) have a name in common. If they are, in fact, the fates then who is the third Fate? Could this be who Nemesis is? (I haven't given this one any thought it just came to me.) I have given some thought to the many triple aspect goddesses that exist in many different mythologies and religions. Everyone from the Morrigan to the Fates to Kali, Durga, and Parvati and many many more. Most of them exist as a maiden, a mother, and a crone (The Mother, the Queen, and the Lady of both Winter and Summer). I don't know if you would have both the individual courts representing the triple aspect and the Mothers themselves also representing two parts of a triple aspect but it is interesting to think about. I will have to look at the books again with this idea in mind.
