Swedish Glögg For A Swedish Christmas Fete

I went to Tony and Ingalill’s Christmas Eve Extravaganza that always includes glögg and a viewing of Kalle Anka och hans vänner önskar God Jul (Donald Duck and His Friends Wish You a Merry Christmas. You can click on the link to read all about it.

Super-cool space-saving Christmas tree, and the marvelous cozy all-year dining room T&L created in their back patio.

First course = Five(!) kinds of herring (YUMM), sliced ham, sliced sausage, eggs and cucumber, gravlax, tomatoes, sour cream and dill, cheese, Swedish flat breads, bread that Tony made. Second course = Slow cooked short ribs with wine sauce, scalloped potatoes, boiled potatoes, meatballs, linked sausages, Brussels sprouts. (Lill’s photos above and below.)

Tony, Daniel, the neighbors living across the street in Knut and Brigitte’s old house, Jim, me, Rick, Eivor

I left early to continue the day’s events at D&A’s, before the evening postprandial walk and before dessert (although I helped myself to some of Jim’s cookies) and before the boys finished off the glögg and the aquavit.
