Today it is Lucia here in Sweden, so just for you that don´t know of the Swedish Lucia celebration here are a short instruction film "Swedish Lucia for Dummies";)
Brilliant! Just sent it to my daughter who is 1/16th Swedish (I am 1/8th Swedish!) and has a big exam today. She says she is going to get a gingerbread man after her exam to celebrate!
Will be making Glögg and playing minis with my girls on Saturday. The forecasted snowstorm means no runs out for Peppakakor, and the girls are still a bit too young for candles yet.
Fascinating! Never heard of it and it sounds like fun. I'd like the spiced wine I think!
ReplyDeleteCandle hats? AWESOME!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy !

ReplyDeleteReally interesting, and something new for me.
ReplyDeleteI understand that something similar was going on here, unfortunately, we hit the gløgg early
