Wedding ring found after a year inside blood pudding By Sunna Kristín Hilmarsdóttir 4. nóvember 2014 19:52 The ring was found deep inside the last pouch. VISIR A year ago Anna Guðný Egilsdóttir was making blood pudding with her friend and her mother when she accidentally lost her wedding ring. "It was really unbelievable because I had just been told a story about a woman who lost her wedding ring while making blood pudding. Then I realize that my wedding ring isn't on my finger anymore so we start looking for it," says Anna. She said that they had filled all the pouches and were sewing them up. "We fondled every pouch thoroughly but we couldn't find it. I was certain though that the ring would turn up. I kept an eye out for it all year long when I was cutting blood pudding. I cut every blood pudding in a certain way so if the ring was there I would see it." She finally got lucky this weekend when the ring was found deep within one of the pouches. "I think it was the last pouch, maybe the second-last, and the ring was deep in the middle, I had cut through more than half of it before I found the ring." The ring appears no worse to wear, despite having been inside a pouch of blood pudding for roughly a year.Did elves borrow the ring?Anna mentions that there's an odd Icelandic superstition about things that disappear. Legend has it that elves borrow these things and sometimes they return them, but in a different place than where they took them from. Elves have a tendency to use borrowed rings for certain rituals and then return them to the humans. "I think it sounds nicer than the ring having spent all that time inside a blood pudding," Anna jokes. "Even though there's nothing that proves that elves exist it is an old superstition that's part of our culture, so it's important to remember it. It's good to keep the old tales alive, if only for entertainment." Anna is ecstatic about getting her wedding ring back. "I'm luckier than my husband who lost his wedding ring while out at sea 10 years ago. We claim that it ended up inside some fish. My husband got a new ring but I didn't bother renewing mine as I was so certain that it would turn up again."
