Glöggparty

We had invited family members from around France to our 'glöggparty' but some of them were engaged in other events and some live to far away, like Bretagne, Nice and Paris among other places, wherefore we were few but on the same time being able to eat more!

Below some of the starters before eating Swedish meatballs, salmon and more.
The last two photos depict the mandatory 'Lucia Cats' ('Lussekatter') or saffron bread and gingerbreads.
To this we drank sparkling wine and - of course - 'glögg' or 'mulled wine'/'glühwein'/'vin chaud' in other languages.
(Sorry for the bad quality of some of the photos).

Swedish crispbread ('knäckebröd')



















Gingerbread with Roquefort-like cheese on

So called 'Skagenröra' (a blend of shrimps, eggs, mayonnaise,
dill, red onion, some lemon, salt and black peppar) on bread.


















Cheese and raisins on bread.


















Gingerbreads in the form of elks, squirrels, foxes and more.
