It's Lucia today

Here are my little cardboard Lucias - they are a Swedish pappersrad ('paper row'...?), and these
are a particular Swedish christmas thing (as is Lucia), I have never seen them of Danish origin.
They are zig zag folded little paper tableaus, to put in your window, perhaps,  or as a centerpiece
on your christmas table - and very sweet. I will get back to you on those later....































































Do you know the story...? That, and the recipe for saffron Lucia buns, you can find right here.

They had a Lucia procession in my sons kindergarten yesterday. They didn't remember all the words
of the song, and didn't march very much in time, but the holy Lucia herself must have heard them.
