Went to a local Swedish fair today (yummy food!) with friends and made a connection with Saint Lucia...or Saint Lucy as my (Italian) Grandmother calls her.
Patron saint of eye sight or I guess "the light" which is much less gory than how I knew of her growing up....but I have to admit I have always been fascinated by the eye balls she holds-(ew!)
anyway It's interesting seeing how religion/culture transforms from country to country.

So interesting.... I have always loved the idea of Swedish celebration ... but oh my, the painting above !???!!
theoretically it could also be russian eggs with black caviar...?
mmm... Que asco...
Best wishes from Buenos Aires...
