December 13 - Saint Lucia Day

Happy Saint Lucia Day!

I remember reading about Saint Lucia's Day in a book about Christmas traditions around the world.  In Scandinavia the oldest daughter in the family makes tea for the family in the darkness of early morning.  She wears a white gown and a wreath with candles on her head, then serves the tea.

I always thought that sounded terrifying. 

Happy name day, Lucie!
