The Estonian Birthday Table Tradition

One of my favourite Estonian traditions is the birthday table tradition. My grandparents did it with their children every year and my father sometimes did it for me too. I know from experience that there is nothing more exciting for a child than to go running into the living room on their birthday to find all their gifts beautifully displayed on the table. I loved it! And I also love looking at these old family photos of my father and uncle enjoying their birthday tables. You just never know what delights await you!
