So the other day I went to PIAS, a store on 4th Ave where you can find all kinds of things from Scandinavia, mostly Norway and Sweden. I bought a traditional candle holder that most homes have on display in the windows in Sweden during December.
A lady working in the store told me that there would be a Lucia celebration today at Viking Hall in town. So I went and it was fun. There was glögg!
And risgrynsgröt, one of my favorite foods, it's a rice porridge, served with cinnamon, butter, sugar and milk to your liking.
Then there was a Lucia train, that was really nice. Btw, I was Lucia once, in 6th grade. And then some singing and dancing around the Christmas tree. So nice, but of course it made me miss Sweden even more!!!!
