In the interest of the upcoming Midsummer celebration on June 21st, I thought I'd make a post about it. I'm not sure if this is the correct category to post under, but it seems the most applicable.
I was wondering about people's thoughts on Midsummer (midsommar is it is called in Swedish... not a big difference). From my understanding it is considered one of the largest holidays of the year, next to the Christmas season, and is truly a uniquely Swedish holiday. The holiday has spread beyond the borders of the largest Nordic country, but it has consistently been celebrated in Sweden for many centuries.
How do you celebrate Midsummer (if you do at all)? What are your traditions and thoughts on the holiday?
