Merry Christmas to all my friends and followers around the netspace. I hope you'll have a peaceful time with your family and the people you love. We'll today celebrate with my sister and her family. The kids will have casseroles and I'll make duck breasts for us adults. It's a wonderful tradition to be together on christmas eve.

Today we had nice snowfall here in Oldenburg. Radio and TV promised a little chaos, but it hasn't been that bad. Many driver are now more careful than at the beginning of the season (oh, we don't have winter yet *smile*). For me it's a nice time, even if I had to dig up my car.

Last birthday I got a gift coupon for a professional massage here at Olantis Huntebad in Oldenburg. Today I've been there for a 60 minutes Ayurveda massage by Ms Budde. It has been great, absolutely relaxing, and a totally new experience. So the next time I don't need a coupon. I think I'll go there every three month in future.
