Fame is being interviewed by the Ubyssey
Pretty excited as I was interviewed by the UBC newspaper this week! Short little blurb discussing our Lucia.

It takes a lot of work to bring light to the wintertime.
“Last night we were baking all of our saffron buns for the performance,” said Fiona Thompson, organizer of the eighth annual Lucia Celebration, a Swedish Christmas carol organized by the UBC Scandinavian and Nordic Cultural Association. “It’s been challenging. I have a paper due on Friday that hasn’t been started yet because I’ve been putting a lot of time into Lucia.”
The Lucia Celebration, set for Friday in the Meekison Arts Student Space, emulates the Swedish tradition of Santa Lucia, where men and women dress up in robes to sing Swedish Christmas carols. One singer plays St. Lucia every year, wearing a red sash and iron crown covered in candles. Swedish buttered treats are served.
“Lucia is the bringer of light in the darkness, and a time to bring in baked goods,” Thompson said, “getting together and singing all about the Christmas traditions. It’s a celebration of the beginning of the Advent season as well.
Thompson, 22, is in her fifth year of natural resources conservation in the Faculty of Forestry. She spent last year on exchange in Uppsala, Sweden, and plans to move back after she finishes her degree.
“I really, really fell in love with the place, the landscape, the culture and the tradition,” she said. “I really felt a connection with that, and I really love the schooling and the way the society works.”
Though a roommate had brought her to the Lucia Celebration at UBC before she went on exchange, seeing the performance in Sweden was a lot different. “They have a much larger group of people who are more interested in singing, and of course most people in Sweden actually speak Swedish, so it’s a lot easier to learn Swedish songs,” she said. “They had a lot of participants … and buttered snacks for everybody, and a lot of people went to watch.”
Though the Scandinavian and Nordic Cultural Celebration has connections in the Scandinavian community, it was a challenge for the group to find time to practice; the UBC Lucia will involve 11 singers. “Finding a time that everyone can get together is also very challenging, because we don’t have people that we can switch out if somebody can’t come,” he said. “We had to find willing participants, of course: people who are both interested in Swedish traditions and Scandinavia in general, and people who are willing to actually put in time to actually come and sing with us.”
The singer who will play Lucia this year is Thompson’s housemate, who has some choral experience. Thompson herself was involved in orchestra since the age of 10, playing the clarinet, but wasn’t able to pick music back up in university until now. “I just couldn’t find the time and it wasn’t so much of a passion that I stuck with it,” she said. “So I miss it.”
Christmas is Thompson’s favourite holiday; she looks forward to starting the festive season with Lucia. “[Lucia] is sort of the beginning of the connection to Christmas celebrations, I would say,” she said. “The way that it’s organized, everybody’s got candles, the lights are all turned down, it’s really cozy.”
For Thompson, the only thing missing at UBC is snow on the ground.
“But I am moving to Sweden, after all, and there’s plenty of it there.”

Lussekatter recept
Saint Lucia Buns (Lussekatter):
Adapted from Dooley, B. Savouring the Seasons of the Northern Heartland (2004)
Ingredients: 2/3 cup milk, 2 tsp
toasted saffron threads (about 1g), 2-2.5 tbsp yeast (or 50g fresh), 1/2 cup sugar, 1/2 cup
warm water (105 to 115 F), 1 stick butter + a little extra melted, 2 eggs, 1 tsp salt, 5-6 cups flour,
vegetable oil, raisins. Optional: pearl sugar.
Tools: skillet, wooden spoon, small saucepan, small bowl, large bowl, spatula, floured surface, large knife, damp cloth, greased baking pans, pastry brush (or small spoon if you don't have one)
Instructions: Place the saffron in a dry, heavy
skillet and toast over medium-high heat for several seconds, stirring with a
wooden spoon until the threads become slightly darker. Toasting the saffron
threads before steeping them in hot milk gives the bread its intense flavour
and rich color.
Scald the milk in a small pan by bringing it just to a boil and
removing it from the heat; then set it aside, add the saffron threads, and
allow to cool to lukewarm.
Dissolve the yeast and sugar in the warm water for about 5 minutes.
In a
large bowl, combine the milk mixture, yeast mixture, butter, egg, salt, and flour. Mix until smooth. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead it
until smooth. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with damp paper towels or clean damp cloth, and allow to rise until
double in bulk, about 1 hour.
(if it isn't rising: 1. your yeast may not be fresh, 2. your water was too hot and your yeast is dead, 3. your water wasn't warm enough and your yeast isn't active, 4. the area isn't warm enough... try placing the bowl on top of your oven or another warm place. 1-3 are not fixable... start again.)
Punch the dough down and divide it into about 24-36 parts (depending on how big you want them to be). Roll out each piece into a snake, thinner at the ends, and roll up into a reverse S shape. Put the buns on greased baking sheets spaced enough to allow them to rise more. Brush the tops with melted butter and
allow them to rise until doubled.
Brush the egg mixed with 1 tbsp water lightly over
the buns. Press in raisins to the curls of the S. Sprinkle the buns with sugar (if desired) and bake them in a preheated 175 C / 350 F
oven for 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool on wire racks.

SANKTA LUCIA
The night goes
with weighty step
round yard and hearth
round earth, the sun departs

There in our dark house,

Saint Lucia, Saint Lucia.
round yard and hearth
round earth, the sun departs
leave the woods brooding
There in our dark house,
appears with lighted candles
Saint Lucia, Saint Lucia.
The night goes
great and mute
now hear it swings
in every silent room
murmurs as if from wings.
Look at our threshold stands
white-clad with lights in her hair
Saint Lucia, Saint Lucia.

LUSSE LELLE
Little Lucia, eleven nights before Christmas,
Now we are come, so soon before Christmas
Little Lucia, eleven nights before Christmas,
Now we are come, so soon before Christmas
NU TÄNDAS TUSEN JULELJUS
A thousand Christmas lights are being lit
On the Earths dark round
And thousands upon thousands also shine
In the sky's dark blue foundation.
And all over town and country tonight
The joyful message of Christmas sounds
That born is the Lord Jesus Christ
Our saviour and God.
Thou star above Betlehem
O, let your gentle light
Come shining in with hope and serenity
Into every home and house
In every heart, poor and dark
Send a gentle ray
A ray of God's love
In the sacred days of Christmas.
STAFFAN VAR EN STALLEDRÄNG
v1
Staffan was a stable boy.
We gladly give thanks.
He watered his five horses,
All for the bright star.
No dawn can be seen yet,
The stars in the sky twinkle.
v2
Hastily he laid the saddle on,
We gladly give thanks.
Before the sun rose,
All for the bright star.
No dawn can be seen yet,
The stars in the sky twinkle.
v3
The best colt was dapple-grey,
We gladly give thanks.
Staffan himself rode upon it,
All for the bright star.
No dawn can be seen yet,
The stars in the sky twinkle.
v4
Before anyone had woken,
We gladly give thanks.
He arrived at the forest,
All for the bright star.
No dawn can be seen yet,
The stars in the sky twinkle.
v5
Now the fire was in the hearth,
We gladly give thanks.
Christmas porridge and Christmas pork,
All for the bright star.
No dawn can be seen yet,
The stars in the sky twinkle.
v6
Now joy was in the house,
We gladly give thanks.
Christmas tree and Christmas candles,
All for the bright star.
No dawn can be seen yet,
The stars in the sky twinkle.
DET ÄR EN ROS UTSPRUNGEN
There is a rose blooming
Of Jesse's root and stem
Of the father's pure song
It was set ahead
And bears a flower mild
In the middle of the cold winter,
In midnight's dark time.
"Lo, How a
Rose E'er Blooming" (19th century hymn)
Lo, how a rose e'er blooming,
From tender stem hath sprung.
Of Jesse's lineage coming,
As men of old have sung;
It came, a flow'ret bright,
Amid the cold of winter,
When halfspent was the night.
GLÄNS ÖVER SJÖ OCH STRAND
Shine over sea and shore, star, from afar,
You, who was lighted in the Orient by the Lord.
The star from Bethlehem does not lead you away, but home,
The children and the shepherds follow you gladly.
Night over the land of Juda, night over Zion.
At the western horizon, Orion is dying out.
The shepherd who sleeps, tired; the child who slumbers
sweetly,
Wake up to a wondrous chorus of voices,
Behold a gloriously bright star in the East.
GODER AFTON
Good evening, good evening, both gentleman and lady!
We wish you all a joyful Christmas!
Good evening, good evening, welcome to every guest!
We wish you all a joyful feast!

Memories of Höstbal 2011
Finally made a youtube clip of the autumn ball last year in Uppsala.
Here is the youtube video...
And here is a link to my post talking about the ball, back in November 2011.

Bästa bullar!
Here is my recipe for buns! I found this recipe in a Swedish cooking periodical, and translated it. Some measurements/ingredients/instructions might not be what you are used to, so I have adapted/paraphrased them... except for white syrup (vit sirap), I haven't figured out a good replacement for that yet.
"Baka bästa bullen" (from Matglädje)
Ingredients:
Dough:
- 50g fresh yeast (or 25g dry yeast… about 2 tbsp)
- 5 dl lukewarm milk (500mL)
- 100g butter (just under ½ cup)
- 1 ½ dl white syrup (might want to do some googling to find a substitute… I haven’t found anything except *this* and I haven't tried it)
- 1 ½ tbsp cardamom
- 1 ½ tbsp cinnamon (adjust these to your preference)
- 2 pinches salt
- 12 dl flour (5 cups)
Filling:
- 50 -100 g of melted butter (¼ to ½ cup)
- ½ dl sugar (50mL or just under ¼ cup)
- 2-3 tbsp vanilla sugar (or, icing sugar and a pinch of vanilla extract)
Brushing:
- 1 egg
- Pearl sugar
Tools:
- Small bowl
- Whisk
- Spatula
- Spoon
- Large bowl
- Rolling pin
- Knife
- Greased baking sheets
- Pastry brush
Bring butter to room temperature.
Stir in yeast to warm milk until dissolved (5min or so).
Mix milk, yeast, butter, syrup, spices, salt, and flour.
Knead the dough until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes.
Leave to rise for approximately 1 hour.
Punch down the dough once, about halfway through. Longer leavening gives more flavour.

Leave to rise for approximately 1 hour.
Punch down the dough once, about halfway through. Longer leavening gives more flavour.
While waiting, mix together filling (it’s easier to spread when butter begins
to solidify again).
Put the dough on a floured surface and knead gently.
Divide in half (if you like… easier to work with a smaller piece at once).
Roll out into a large rectangle.
Spread the filling evenly over dough using a spoon.
Fold over lengthwise, and cut the dough into about 2 cm wide strips.
Cut each strip into two legs (imagine V shape).
Twist each leg separately, and tie legs pressed together into a loose knot.
Place on greased baking sheet and leave covered at least 30 minutes.

Place on greased baking sheet and leave covered at least 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 250 C.
Gently press a finger into the
dough … print should disappear quickly (then it’s ready to go).
Brush gently with beaten egg and sprinkle with pearl sugar.
Bake in middle of oven 8-10 minutes until brown.
Bake in middle of oven 8-10 minutes until brown.
VARIATIONS:
-
Mix 2 tbsp cardamom into the dough, and mix
cinnamon into the filling. Instead of folding over and making legs etc, just
roll the dough into a tube and cut off ‘slices’ (traditional swirly cinnamon
bun style).
-
Or, don’t use any cinnamon, and top with sugar and chopped
almonds.
