[QUOTE="Forgalspop, post: 3928871, member: 46636"] Our mother taught school, so she was always off during Christmas break, so we as a family would do large jigsaw puzzles and play lots of board games, such as Monopoly. Also, our mother did a great deal of baking of cookies, pies and pastries over the holidays. My father's mother was from Sweden and so over the Christmas and New Years we would have lot's of traditional Swedish type foods, such as pickled herring, smoked whitefish, Swedish pancakes, lingonberry sauce, potato sausage, Swedish pastries, rye crisp crackers, and other Swedish type foods. We lived in Northeast Kansas and my father would drive to Kansas City, Mo where there was a Swedish grocery store and purchase lots of Swedish type foods. Often times it was cold enough over Christmas break we would go ice skating on local ponds and snow sledding. Fond memories! Merry Christmas to all! [/QUOTE]
