Last year J’s parents, sister, and brother-in-law visited us in Paris over Thanksgiving. We all visited the Christmas market (julbasar) at the Swedish Church in Paris while they were in town. It was a lot of fun and J’s parents treated us to an adorable wooden julbock for our apartment and an assortment of Swedish delicacies for the small julbord I made on Christmas Eve.
This year we went back to the Christmas market on our own. It has indoor and outdoor stalls selling food, Christmas decorations, and other little gifts. After winding our way through the crowded market, we headed to the church basement for a snack. They had a lunch of traditional Swedish foods, as well as sweets for sale. We had chokladbollar with coffee (for me) and glögg (for J). It was the perfect end to our very Swedish Saturday afternoon.
