It’s a little late now now but you forgot that we go around the Christmas tree while singing Christmas songs and of course watching Dinner for One or “Grevinnen Og Hovmestern” on Little Christmas Eve ‘Lille Juleaften’

Ellers håper jeg du hadde en riktig god jul og godt nyttår

I have never seen it in my life…lol – not in Norway, Australia or England. Moose tells me it is only on late at night (well, after the kids have gone to bed). I think it is really bizarre that part of Christmas tradition here is to sit and watch tv a lot of the time…lol.

all the Norwegian traditions are fond memories of my Mother telling me stories of her childhood in Arendal, Norway. I try still to keep some alive and passing it on to mychildren. I love to bake krumkake and berlinerkranser around the holidays.It just wouldn’t feel like Christmas without the spice of cardamom on my tongue!LOL!

My wife is Swedish and has always celebrated St. Lucia’s day. It was nice finding this blog and reading up on all the traditions.
