A sweet reminder of some of the more lovely things about home, if home happens to be Canada or the U.S., from the clever folks at The Typing Chimps
And my best wishes to all headed home (or to spend time with family) for the Holidays (i.e. Christmas, Chanukah, Kwanzaa). Enjoy it!
Anybody have ideas for how to spend Christmas pretty much alone as a couple? (keep it clean!) Christmas has always been an extended-family holiday and I don't have too many ideas, and we don't have a fireplace.
NPR carries A Festival of 9 Lessons and Carols, and for the first time in many years I will be somewhere with a decent internet connection, so we can listen.

I had an idea until you said to keep it clean.
Hey there,
This seems like an opportunity to make a new tradition that is all your own, or at least be sure to each celebrate one of your own together. Although you may not be with friends and family, maybe this is a chance to find your own unique way of celebrating the holiday. Maybe sounds a little cheesy and not your first choice for how to spend the holidays but it could be very sweet too.

You have a point. In all likelihood, we won't ever have a real choice in the future about what to do on Christmas. Family will always be the default - there won't be much room for "zweisamkeit". I just have a bit of hunting to do, to make sure that we will not go hungry if we take our act on the road.
Thanks for your kind link, and sorry about making you homesick. Whatever you do zu zweit around Christmas, it should involve lots of Glühwein and evening Spaziergänge through the Old Town. Sehr romantisch...
