Lucia Day: Open House 2010



I debated back and forth about having an open house party for Santa Lucia Day. It seemed like it might be a good idea and I was excited about it but worried that I might not have the energy or ability to pull it off. We debated and with my buddy Barb's encouragement we decided to tone it down a bit. A little dinner party was okay and everyone would help. The girls got up garlands and found a few of our Swedish style decorations, including a few special elves.

The next thing to go wrong was that about a week before the party I hurt my back pretty badly and found myself flat on my back and not able to do much of anything.

Thank-you everyone for pulling together and coming to our party!

The menu was:
Ham
2 types of Swedish Meatballs,
(in cream sauce or sweet and sour sauce.)

Scalloped potatoes
Rye Bread and butter
Cheese Platter
Pickle Tray
Wasa Bread
Cooked sweet and sour Beets
Baked Beans
Barb's special Salad
