I’m not sure if it means hell froze over, if it’s a Christmas miracle, or it’s a new wonder of the world, but Thessaloniki finally opened the first line of the Metro (underground train). It was only promised to open in 2012…

My first bird cam visitor. I’m way too excited about a common European Robin. 🤣

And this the day after the WHO hosts this meeting. It’s fine, right? We’ll be fine.

One of the best things about living in Germany is having my bathroom clock tell me to “DIE” once a week. 🤣

Just got back from a whirlwind three days at the Frankfurt Book Fair where I got lots of yummy book industry data, attended several interesting/moving/inspiring talks, and had loads of laughs with my book studies friends. Never got the courage to go to the Wiley booth and chant “SHAME”, though.

I’m admitting we just took our Christmas tree down today. I feel no shame. I’d leave it up year round if it wasn’t in the way. See how pretty it was?

Let’s spread peace this next year. Try something new in the world for a change. Hope I can get people to join me.

I took a Thai cooking class. It was a blast, but I don’t remember the names of any of the dishes. So here’s a picture of delicious food blobs on a plate.
