Meine Liebste Saison im Jahr, wann gehts endlich wieder los

Santa Christmas Scrabble

This certainly does not score a lot of points in the real game of Scrabble, but I am sure Santa will appreciate it and bring lots of gifts this year. It´s the Santa points that count.

Christmas Tree with Piglets

Our Christmas tree this year has lot´s of home slippers hanging from it so that Santa has enough space for presents. For some odd reason a group of piglets have gathered around it. In order for them to be appropriately dressed each one is wearing a christmas accessoire.

Santa’s Luggage

I consider it to be a good sign that Santa has dropped his suitcase in our guest room. I did not dare to peek, but I desperately want to know what’s inside.

Putting on the Glitz

Tough choice to pick the right hat or antlers for the Christmas themed PopUp Tearoom. The Santa apron and the „HoHoHo“ Bling were mandatory, but I could not decide between the other three. At the end I went with the red & white sugar canes. They are the cutest.

Preparations for the Christmas Market in our Street

Last weekend we had the Christmas Market in our street. The smart friends do not only show up when it starts in the afternoon, they announce themselves for breakfast. To give it a little Christmas kick I prepared a Pumpkin Spice Granola. It`s the regular recipe from my book with added pumpkin pie spice and canned pumpkin. Not to forget, Sunday was also the 15th birthday of our downhill bike professional neighbor Robert. Each year I ask him what kind of cake he likes to have. He can pick anything he wants but he always chooses Banana Cream with Vanilla wafers.
