Santa Lucia Buns

"On Santa Lucia Day the children serve buns and spiced tea to the rest of the school. While someone dressed as Santa Lucia walks and serves with them. In our Waldorf school, it’s customary for one or two grades to make Santa Lucia Buns for the rest of the school. The year I wrote this post originally it was our turn when my youngest was in second grade. The second-grade parents made some of the dough for these saffron buns traditionally served on Santa Lucia Day. And then the children helped shape them."
