Last weekend some friends and I embraced the holiday spirit with hot wine in boots and apple strudel at the famous Christkindlmarket downtown. Jackie and I sipped our holiday mulled drinks as we sang along with [self-proclaimed] carolers and shopped the German market. We were transplanted back to Europe, when life was simple and sweet. If you recall - on Thanksgiving last year, Jackie showed up in my little Spanish piso right as my stuffed chicken came out of the oven... I will never forget the comfort of her encouragement and dear friendship on that day. The German market reminded us of our memories... friendship, thankful hearts, and the joy He gives us in the season.
