Glühwein? Well yes, of course, hehe.

What are Christmas dinners like in Germany? Do you have special food traditions for that time of year?

Don't they have the main meal on Christmas Eve? I really like the idea of doing this. We, well, my family, make a fish pie.

Incidentally, I am soooooo making lebkuchen this year!

Haha, well, Romanian is my last choice, but I think it'd be cool to be able to speak to you in Romanian.

Wim Wender is so versatile.
I absolutely hate the American version- City of Angels. Ugh! Awful.
