Advent Traditions: Candles, Gingerbread House, Saffron Buns, and Glögg

Every Sunday of December, a traditional candle is lit one at a time: the Advent candle. Included in this Swedish tradition is the making of the Gingerbread House, and baking of gingerbread cookies served with glögg (Swedish mulled wine) and saffron buns (lussekatter).
