What's your favourite holiday??

I was thinking about upcoming holidays and Valentine's Day next week is the nearest holiday to come. I have only ever received two cards on Valentine's Day. One was from my teacher in Year Six and the other was a beautiful paper rose in a box sent to me by mail. I've spent most of Valentine's Days alone or with my parents. I sometimes find myself scrutinizing couples wondering what the magic spark was that brought them together. That doesn't mean I do not like this "Hallmark Holiday". I do! I think it's very nice but manufacturing one specific day for expressing your love for someone is perhaps a bit irritating to some people especially because of the ways that greeting card and floral companies market the hell out of that day. You should show love and appreciation for your Valentine all year around, regardless of what day it is.

Be it Valentine's Day or not, I love holidays! All holidays! I enjoy putting out fun decorations and buying or making special cards for family and friends. My favourite holiday is Halloween followed by Christmas!!!

Soon in Sweden is the "Fettisdagen" or "Semmeldagen". This year it's on the 8th of March. It's a day before the fasting for Easter starts I think (I have no clue so forgive me if I'm wrong I'm not religious at all!) and you eat "Semlor" which in English are "Cream buns with almond paste". I looked it up in the dictionary :D That's the only reason I like this holiday. Haha, 'cause Semlor are SO AMAZINGLY, MOUTHGASMICLY, FABULOUSLY MORE-THAN-GOOOOOOOOOD. NOMNOMNOMNNOMNOM. Here is one:

  

OMG my mouth is just watering. If you're not Swedish or have never tasted them you can't possibly understand why I am so overly excited about these yummy creations. I also heard that on this day you can eat pancakes. I guess that's a good alternative for people who don't like Semlor but HOW COULD YOU NOT?!?
