Lucia Day is, part from seeing the Queen of Light and her entourage the big day for eating lussebullar. Lussebullar are wheat buns, spiced with saffron (thus the yellow color) and decorated with raisins.There is a long story behind why we the Swedes eat lussebullar at Lucia (part from "Lusse" being kind of a "petname" for Lucia...). I tried to find it online, but couldn't (didn't work too hard, I was busy eating lussebullar and only had one hand...)
Anyway, I LOVE lussebullar. Today I've had... hm... many...
