How we celebrating Christmas in Sweden.

In many swedish families we are starting the celebration the 23 of December in the evening with bingo. We are preparing with very good tasting snacks. Like different kinds of cheese, meat, fruit and drinks. The bingo is called “uppesittarkväll” which means “up sitting night”. In the Christmas morning we eat porridge with an almond in it. In the afternoon the whole family meets and we watch  Donald Duck together. After that We have dinner consisting traditional Swedish food. It’s herring, ham, meatballs, sausage, salmon, potatoes and much more. In the evening Santa is coming with gifts.
