Today we were happy to let our resident Birgit host a sweet Swedish Solstice Social Hour! ✨ She served her festive, traditional glögg and shared cherished Swedish holiday traditions, including St. Lucia Day.
🌟 Fun facts: In Sweden, the winter solstice marks the return of the light after the longest night of the year. St. Lucia Day, celebrated on December 13, is one of Sweden’s most beloved traditions—symbolizing hope and light during the darkest season, often featuring candle crowns, songs, and special treats.
Thank you, Birgit, for sharing your culture and bringing warmth, light, and holiday cheer to our community. đź’›
