Grandmother and GreatGrandmother lived together until Nana passed. Swedish/ Norwegian ancestry.....lutefisk boiling on the stove every Xmas eve when we would visit.

Being younger I was never adventurous enough to try it...and the look on my Fathers face was priceless when we walked through the door and smelled it.

This time of year always makes me think of boiled cod.

Threatened my daughter that I'd put a pot on just for the scent...she asks why would anyone associate fish with Xmas...

Now crumbkaka (sp?)........that's a holiday treat....
