What is a Wiking? Say it like viking. I have the story behind the blog name in my about section, but I don’t think many people have read it. My family came to the United States from Denmark, and with a Danish accent, Viking sounds like wiking. I’m always excited when my cousins say they will come “wisit” us. The name wiking became a nickname from my husband, asking me daily, “Are you a happy wiking?”. Over the years as our relationship progressed and our family grew we became less like individual wikings, and more like Team Wiking. In 2008, Team Wiking was born.

Lately I’ve been working on some changes to the blog that include refining my content calendar so that it is more interesting, helpful, or relevant. I’ve also refined the sidebar quite a bit, but it still might not be complete. Please let me know in the comments if you have any suggestions, or if there is something different that you would like to see!
