And those Lussekaters? Don’t tempt me now – hihi.

I cheer with “wiiwarm” – It’s Swiss for glögg – can really need it – woke up to minus 19C – I might rethink the fast – lol.

Happy Christmas time!

I was modestly thinking about how cool it was to make your bread by hand. I rely on a bread machine to do my dough. Then I saw pics of your finished work. Tee hee hee! :lol:

Lifecruiser: Good! Well, you see how fun it can be to bake…? *lol*

I look down.

But one Lucia”tÃ¥g” will allways be very special for me: On a SAS flight from Scandinavia to New York, a group of young, beautiful Swedes went down the rails fully dressed white Lucias, with candlelights singing the Lucia song. (Even my 5 year old grandson can the text). I guess those young woman are handpicked or something, may be a competition, to represent Sweden in New York. Do you know?
PS. Wonderful posting and blog you have.

Lifecruiser: Ah, don’t be embarassed – in that case I have to be that too, because I was forced to ask Renny if you had Lucia in Norway too….

Most certainly were the women in the Lucia procession in NY handpicked, but I haven’t heard of any competition just for that. The one choosen as Swedens Lucia, get to do a lot of representing, but I guess she can’t be everywhere at the same time :-)

Anyway, you’re most welcome to join in the party too! The more the merrier! I’ll try to pop over to you as soon as possible and check out your blog too!

But the today’s tradition I know quite well, because we have a lot of Swedish people here in Waterloo, because the Swedish school is here. We even have a swedish shop with all specialities. And of course IKEA !! In my area there are a lot and I have seen girls wearing the wreath. It really looks beautiful. And in my fitness club there are also a lot of swedish women and we talked about this feast.
Now, I have another question for the party tomorrow “what should I do tomorrow” (not wear !)put a link to your blog ? Write something funny, put pictures ?? I never ever had a virtuel party in my life !

Lifecruiser: Aha, so Swedes has invaded Waterloo ;-) Interesting.

You got the party picture! You don’t have to put a link here, but the more the merrier, so that way we get more party mood people over here :-)

You can either write something fun on your blog if it’s long .- or if it’s shorter in comments here, pictures is even more great! Use your fantasy! Everything is allowed as long as we have fun and that’s we gonna have for sure :-) )
