A tiny tree. But with real candles.

My very old parents didn't feel up to anything bigger. Understandably

Home baked Linzer torte, Weihnachtsstollen and Lebkuchen. Like every Christmas ever (for me).

I'm afraid I didn't do any decorating this year so I've got nothing to post. But I have to say I love any Christmas tree that has lots of books under it like that one.

Tree would have been destroyed by (4) cats. (Last year it WAS destroyed by only 1!)

I don't think the books make much sense to anglosaxon readers. For instance on top is Widerfahrnis by Bodo Kirchhoff. Apparently he received the Deutsche Bücherpreis 2016 for it. It seems it hasn't been translated into English though.

I'm currently reading The Nix by Nathan Hill. Pretty engaging so far. Not likely that I'll stay engaged for its 620 pages. But we'll see.

Mom's tree

I don't put up a tree.

That's a proper sized tree mightshould. And very evenly decorated. Nice work!

Here's Lucy lying under the tree. The lights change from green/blue to red/yellow, but the green/blue photographed best. My tree is a mish-mash of collected ornaments, many of which have great sentimental value. There is a cat angel on top of the tree.

Wow, mightshould, that tree is magnificent.

Oops, missed this post. Here is a belated shot of the tree, and our menorah and some other Xmas paraphernalia, in this pic of the new kitten resting against my slipper.
