Peace, Love, and Christmas Baking

I hope it's been a good year for you folks, and if not I hope the next one is much better for you. I've had the pleasure of meeting several of you in the past year, but not nearly enough in the good ol' U.S. and A. - and that's got to change. And it will. It's being worked on currently and hopefully I'll be able to attend some in the new year.

In the meantime have a lovely Christmas season all, and may the highs of your past be the lows of your future...

...and a bit of Berlin...

The dour rennaissance.
Those German's have a different word for everything.
Potsdamer platz as I'd never seen it.
And the new (to me at least) Bundestag.
The TV tower makes for great late-night orientation...

...more still...
