The Christmas tree lights have been lit, the food prepared, and the mayor of Turku has officially announced the beginning of the festive season. Our Chrtismas will be low-key as usual. We celebrate our main meal today, on the eve, just like the Finns, although we open our gifts on Christmas day. Today’s feast will include a traditional Armenian supper, with a lamb and vegetable dish served alongside rice pilaf. However, we’ve always mixed cultures and this year will be no different. We’ll be serving rosoli, a Finnish beatroot dish as well as suede dish. To finish off the meal, we’ll be eating a traditional French ice cream log and the meal will of course feature plenty of free flowing wine.
Seasons Greetings
