It's Saint Lucia's feast day, and we did her thing: our girl dressed like Lucia and our boy like a Starboy; we made lussekatter, the traditional Swedish buns that (as you can see!) mimic Lucia's sad pre-martyrdom situation of having her eyes put out during torture (mideval images of her include her with eyes miraculously restored, but carrying around a spare set on a plate); we processed to the Santa Lucia music, borrowed from Italian gondola drivers; and just for fun, we photographed the various Lucia images in our house. There's a candleholder, various ornaments, two tree-toppers, one Lucia and one Starboy on some vintage textiles, and one tattoo. See if you can match them up!
