Halloween

Table set for a Halloween meal

Sweden has slowly adopted the Halloween tradition. Probably because of the candy. But people still get discombobulated when it falls on a weekday. What to do? Can we take the kids out on Saturday instead? Or maybe Friday? But surely you can’t have a holiday in the middle of the week? Even a Sunday feels uncomfortable.

The huge celebration of Midsummer used to follow the calendar, but is now fixed to fall on a Friday & Saturday – Midsummer eve on Friday and Midsummer Day on Saturday, kind of like Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.

Looking forward to write a post here, when Sweden has put some order into this unruly custom and forced Halloween to fall on a Saturday. Or, maybe a Friday.

Sharing my best loved honey based recipies, along with short stories collected during life in Northern California and Stockholm, Sweden. Well, stories from other joints as well, and not only my experiences. Some will appear in English and some in Swedish. Deal with it.
