It´s odd, but the thing that I primarily associate a lot of holidays (and other days) with is not so much their various religious meanings, but the particular foods eaten. Christmas of course takes the price, with Christmas dinner, Christmas lunch, Christmas hygge - all of it the same from year to year, pastries and drink and food and stuff, never changing in the least. Other, smaller days too - Martinmas eve you eat goose or duck, Storebededag and the warm hveder, Fastelavn and fastelavnsboller, New Year´s Eve with kransekage and codfish (though I´ll pass on the latter, thank you). And then there is Easter, with lamb and eggs and Easter beer - and the Easter lunch, which is actually a lot nicer than Christmas lunches (perhaps because it is not as likely to end in drunken partying?).

Strange how it works, this mind of mine...

Weee, I beat my sister at "Master of movies"! :-) Let´s just ignore that she beat me at it first...
