Welcome Holidays!

With my favorite season...Fall..... also comes the Holidays that I value so much!
Not only do I drag out the warm clothes from the bottom of the closet but out comes the Christmas Tree and the Holiday Cookbooks.
I found my favorite German Cookbook and the story of German cooking that comes along with it.
Cooking of Germany printed in 1969 by Nika Standen Hazelton delves deep into the history of Germany and its' changes after war. While it is evident that the country changed and the damaged rebuilt the tradition and beliefs of the German people were never so strong.
This book is a treasure and inspiring to read about my heritage of my family. The Holiday Season is a time of reflection and celebration of times past and the future.
I am thankful for so many things that I don't even know where to begin!
I close my eyes and begin......I am thankful for the wind blowing and the crackling leaves, the chill of the air, the bustle of squirrels burying their nuts, and this is just in 5 seconds!
I am thankful for the classes and the professors that make learning enjoyable and meaningful. I appreciate the 90 minutes each week that I get to enjoy reading what I want too.
God Bless and may you have a great Fall and Holiday Beginning:)
