CHRISTMAS FERIEN IS FINALLY OVER

Am I glad the Christmas holiday is over! Don't get me wrong, I love Christmas. Being home without family and all Friends are busy the days becomes so long. I love my routines.

The kids got bored a lot, and I cannot blame them, the last days were boring. We went and ice skate and that was cold but fun. I left a little earlier to the cafe next door and had a wonderful cup of glue wine My beloved book in my bag. It was the best last day of the Holiday.

Meanwhile back home, we finally also got the carpenter to re-build the entrance from living room into my office.

So everything is back to normal. And I love it

Never give up.

Even when life gets in the

way and every writing door

seems to be slamming,

never stop writing.

CHRISTMAS MARKET in GERMANY

Amazing Christmas Markets in Germany. There are so many to chose between. This year we chose a castle up on a Mountain. It was incredible beautiful.

It kept me thinking though how people back at that time got all food and drinks up. It was steep!

Gladly, we got to say hello to St Nicholas.

Crowded.

Me and handsome boy, Max,

It was very cold and windy, but the well tasted glue wine tasted much better then.

That's Amore!

St MARTIN CELEBRATION IN GERMANY

St. Martin was known as friend of the children and patron of the poor

A nice celebration in Germany is St Martin.


Saint Martin of Tours started out as a Roman soldier then was baptized as an adult and became a monk. It is understood that he was a kind man who led a quiet and simple life. The best known legend of his life is that he once cut his cloak in half to share with a beggar during a snowstorm, to save the beggar from dying from the cold. That night he dreamed that Jesus was wearing the half-cloak. Martin heard Jesus say to the angels, "Here is Martin, the Roman soldier who is not baptised; he has clothed me
Max had his first roll and since he back home beg for money they whole time, he fell naturel into his roll.

Kindergarten was invited and we walked a train behind the horses with lights. Afterwards was it gluewein and wurst bit brot. 

A very nice tradition for children as for Adults.

That's Amore!
