One week is not enough

It's been a week and a day now in Stuttgart for Emil and me. We enjoyed our time here that much, we decided to stay longer instead of leaving tomorrow, and I bought a ticket to ride back on January 1st. Kurt called this evening, and offered to meet us at Berlin station. So nice!
Now we'll spend more days (and nights) relaxing at home, cooking and eating and drinking, talking, walking doggies, reading books, and watching movies. Family life can be so great!
We had our traditional get together on Dec 25th and homemade cheese spätzle with my former husband (and the kids' father) Roland, his partner Sabine, and brother Uli who came from Lake Konstanz. Since everybody had a wonderful time, we invited them to brunch in our house on Dec 26th. Amazing to see what our fridge holds to make a delicious on the spot brunch for seven from scratch! Caviar, salmon and champagne included!
What a lovely Xmas! We even had some snow!
Today I met my friend Tina in Kunstmuseum downtown Stuttgart to catch up on our lifes lately, whilst Volker and Anna were cleaning his flat and getting everything sorted for his flight to the States. He'll be staying and working in Texas and New York until spring. Lucky guy!
And now on to another winter weekend, getting ready for New Year's Eve. Last year I was partying and celebrating in Helsinki. This year is a lot quieter somehow. But still - I like it, for a change. :)
