Aktenzeichen XY ungelöst "Akazienweg"

Klaus is at a Christmas party and I am watching Aktenzeichen XY from 1976. It's still as scary as it was when I was a little girl.
And because it was so captivating I am now watching "Hammermörder". One can only guess what's coming next...

Weihnachtsbaum

Weihnachtsbaum
This year's Christmas tree is a homage to Klaus' German heritage. I bought three boxes of old Lauscha glass balls recently on eBay. Furthermore I added Schokoladenkränze (not seen on this image). And at last I had to include something red, as Klaus associates red with Christmas. It's an absolutely gorgeous tree!
Schokoladenkränze
Bekannt von Kindesbeinen an gehören die Schokoladenkränze auf jeden Tisch und jeden Weihnachtsbaum!

Amerikanerli

cookies
For quite a number of years did I try to find the recipe of my favorite childhood cookies. Several times I went through the cookbooks at dad's place but was unsuccessful. I then posted a note on my message board and a while back somebody sent me her recipe. I tried it out and was a bit shocked by the sweetness of the cookies. But in the meantime I have adjusted the recipe and even made a variation of it. It will all be revealed in next year's Advent calendar.

Es schneielet, es beielet

Es schneielet, es beielet,
es got en chüele Wind.
D Meitli leged d Händsche a
und Buebe laufed gschwind.
Es schneielet, es beielet,
es got en chüele Wind.
Es früred alli Vögeli
und alli arme Chind.
Es schneielet, es beielet,
es got en chüele Wind.
Und hesch es Stückli Brot im Sack
so gibs em ärmste Chind.

Snow!

house

Today we went to the Homes for the Holidays. It's a tour of five houses in Shaughnessy. The event raises funds for the Kids Help Phone. I thought it would be a business trip where I could take many images of great decorations. But of course visitors were not allowed to photograph. The Christmas decorations were actually not that special. But the houses were fabulous!

In the late afternoon I went to English Bay and shoot some winter pictures. It was gorgeous! I hope the snow lasts until tomorrow.
It was a special day.

Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever... it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.
