Chicago Christkindlmarkt
Jessica and I visited the Chicago Christkindlmarkt at the Daley Plaza last night. The weather was a bit chilly with blowing snow, but thankfully we were bundled-up in our warmest Patagonia coats. 
Our first stop was to purchase some candied almonds. They were still warm and were delicious.
We bought some cute little schnaps “Stamperl” from Straub-Art-Glas. We still have some Austrian schnaps left from the bottle that my friend Daniel brought back last year. I think the schnaps will taste amazing from these glasses along with some fondue.
Jessica and I shared a glass of Gluehwein. It wasn’t the best that I have ever had, but not the worst either. At any rate, it hit the spot on a frigid December evening.
Our final stop was a Bratwurst mit Sauerkraut und Senf. Mahlzeit!

We are doggysitting our friends’ greyhound, Willow. I am not exactly sure who is watching whom…

Jessica, Juli and I drove to Pine City, MN to celebrate Thanksgiving with Jessica’s family.
On Friday we went on a little hike along the Saint Croix River in Wisconsin.

Juli had a lot of fun exploring the great outdoors.
