Stollen, snowflakes and shopping

Dear Thathu,

Yes, It's that time of the year. For Shopping, Stollen and Hot Chocolate with loads of whipped cream. And smell the roast chestnuts. And walking on the High Street, with the lights twinkling around and listening to the sound of "It was on a starry night"! 

Don't you miss this? 

I love winter. And December. And mince pies. And all those things that come along with Christmas. And especially, yes, especially Stollen. My only problem is to decide where I can get the best stollen and to be frank, I tend to vary from year to year. Some years, I love the Stollen from Marks and Spencer. (Yes, we have a branch in town). And other years, I love the Stollen from Waitrose. (Yes we have one in Bedford). Or some years I prefer the ones at Sainsbury's. (Yes, we have one too). 

I must confess this year I got some from John Lewis. And sadly, we don't have a shop in Bedford. But they do have one in Milton Keynes which is just next door. So there.


Well, here are some shop windows from Bedford. I just love walking down the High Street, window shopping.






And here is especially for you,
