~ Happy Santa Lucia ~
Today in Sweden and all the other Scandinavian countries Santa Lucia is celebrated.
People gather together in churches, schools and homes, singing and lit candles and with that they eat sweet saffron Lussebullar {Lucia Buns} and other treats.
Its time to share light and joy of the season
{if you like you can see a beautiful Lucia choir in Sweden HERE}
I done a little bit of decorating and some art work {seen above and below}
But today I woke up early before sun came up, Charlie and I went for a walk in the woods and even if it was dark still it was very cozy and we heard foxes somewhere near by.
After our walk we came home and I lit some candles, played some Swedish Christmas music and then I baked some saffron cupcakes {gluten free} so I can take to my daughter who's still in the hospital.
Sure miss having my little girl here, but she's getting so much help right now and thankfully hospital is close to home, so I can go there often to see her. Yesterday we read How Grinch Stole Christmas together, always a great fun to read with her. And today we're going to celebrate Lucia.
Here are a few small sketches & drawings I have done of Foxes
{used different media, ink, water colours, china marker and pencil on different kinds of paper}
Happy Santa Lucia and Happy Winter to all of you
