| Uff da, dat's good coffee! Scott and I went out for breakfast this past Thursday, Dec. 13 - St. Lucia Day. They serve a traditional Swedish breakfast at my favorite place, Tre Kronor on Foster Ave. in Chicago. It is a TINY restaurant - we are sitting in the farthest corner from the front door, which you can see behind Scott. When you eat there, it's like you're at your aunt's house - homey, comfy, and it smells great! |

| Coffee station and Christmas tree - can you see the hand-painted mural on the wall, complete with gnomes? This place is one-of-a-kind, and I just love it. Oh, and the food is all homemade and gourmet. Not many people drive 45-50 minutes each way to go out for breakfast. Oh, and did I mention? We got there at 6:45 in the morning. The best part is - it's still dark out, and we eat only by candlelight - and of course the lights on the tree. So nostalgic, and quiet, and sweet. |

| One of the waitresses, Bridget, made a lovely Lucia girl - she, and two other girls, sang several selections for us, some in Swedish. This is part of the Lucia tradition. We had the BEST time! |
