I'll talk about Christmas dinner in Finland.
At first, this drink is the curtain raiser, the icebreaker at Christmas gatherings in Finland.
It’s called glögi(ﾌﾛｰﾋ) in Finnish, think of mulled wine and it is pretty close in English.
Next, these are the mainstays of the Finnish Christmas dinner.
Ham is the centerpiece and you can see baked veggie casseroles, Brussels sprouts,
a beetroot salad and optional home-brewed ale.
Last, near the end of the Christmas Day,
they eat for dessert; buns, wet cakes, tarts, cinnamon biscuits, fruit cups...
and then a stroll in the snow...blessed tranquility in Finland.
