C
hristmas has always been a
magical time for me. As a
youngster, I looked forward
to tinseling the tree and writing a
letter to Santa. My mom's candy
and " million-dollar fudge, " made
only at Christmas time, added to the
festivities. I cherish my childhood
memories of the season. Yet, looking
back, the holiday could have been
even more special. While my dad's
heritage was 100 percent Norwegian,
we didn't practice any customs from
my grandparents' homeland. There
are so many wonderful traditions
that I know my brother, sister and I
would have enjoyed.
Including Norwegian traditions
in family celebrations can make the
holiday truly special. Yet, if you're like
me and came from a home that did not
celebrate a Norwegian Christmas, you
may be at a loss for where to begin.
There are many books with ideas for incorporating
Norwegian traditions into
your family's celebration. A personal favorite
is a series by Astrid Karlsen Scott
titled " Ekte Norsk Jul - Traditional
Norwegian Christmas. " With Scott's
books as our guide, we learned to make
decorations for the juletre, including
lanterns, nisser and heart baskets. We
tried new cookie recipes-many of
which also can be found on the Sons of
Norway website-so that we can have
the traditional seven types of sweets,
and we learned to sing and dance
around the Christmas tree. Adding
Norwegian traditions into our holiday
has certainly deepened our appreciation
for our heritage.
Betty and I wish all of you a very
Merry Christmas and a joyous
holiday season.
