Temps just fell below freezing and ice is forming - love it!
It just couldn't stay above 80 degrees forever. Christmas tree
cutting in shorts doesn't work for me. Don't know how our Aussie
and Kiwi friends do Christmas in the heat of summer!

I organized a Thanksgiving in Prague for American students, that's why I was offline for most of the time...Wondered where you were Pisis.

Have the day off. Made a pot of chili in the slow cooker. 9 hours of barely simmering and feast on the best chili on this planet.

Good on you, Cheddar!!! (Okay, what is Super Smash Bros?)
Just got back from the first Christmas market for me this year. Erich I took some pictures for you and I will post them tomorrow. It was just a small Christmas market, typical for a small German town. It had 30 stands but the Christmas music was playing and the the smells of the Gluehwein (really great warm drink with alcohol) and the schupfnudeln and waffels and christmas ornatments.
On Sunday I am going to a really big one in a medieval town and that will be fun.

Glühwein = boiled mixture of wine basis. Mmmmmmm, I like that!
It is very good. I had two different kinds tonight. The first was a traditional gluewein and the 2nd was a gluewein with a shot of cherry schnapps in it. Both were very good. They are very hot and warm you up on a cold night like it was tonight.

Easy we either get wet on outside or wet and lubricated inside. for example having a cold drink whilst sitting in either pool or river or ocean. some still do the tradition roast dinner like turkey or roast beef or pork or chicken etc. but most of us have salads and cold meats and even seafood like prawns crab or fish. If you live near the beach etc. beach cricket is something you can do to whilst waiting for lunch and its easy to go and have a quick dip in the water. its amazing seeing santa claus coming ashore at the beach for the kids in a life saving boat or helicopter and santa is wearing a red swimmers and such due to heat. we kind of aussiefied christmas here to suit our weather and the kids have their own types of christmas songs that reflect our enviroment and animals. Out in the bush for example in outback regions christmas is celebrated according to location but the main idea is to keep as cool as possible and quiet frankly seeing old saint nick flying around in a helicopter which is used during the year for cattle mustering is something to see as well. How Aussies celebrate christmas is up to the individuals and according to what suits them best. hope that answers your question. how the Kiwis celebrate christmas you best ask a kiwi

I just received (opproximately 5 minutes ago) a phone call from an old (female) school mate to invite me to a "meet again" party on December 29th. It's been five years since I completed high school. YAY !
I just hope my boss won't call me to work on that night...

take some Glühwein to the party and have some mellow fun............the stuff is great with herbs mixed with the wine and whatever. We have made it home-made, not bad I must say. Looking for a concoction locally from Germany, now where did I see it last ?
it has to be the best stuff to drink when you are on a brink of a cold. sip it as hot as you can get it..........whoa what a buzz 8) I luv it
