Season's Greetings

 Hello,

with Christmas on the way and the New Year already waiting around the corner we wanted to share some Season's Greetings with you. So here's to you:

May this special time at the end of the old year as well as the new year about to come be full of things being as clear and precious as the glass items in Maggie's booth...

... and may you be able to enjoy a lovely, cozy "Kaffeeklatsch" as often as you can. You know, enoying one, two cups of tasty coffee and one, two, three, four pieces of cake hopefully as tasty as the ones you can buy from Richard at the BiWuBeary Christmas Market.

May your days be full of sweet things... hopefully as sweet as the treats offered by Margret.

And may you always appreciate traditional things and value quality workmanship as offered at Richy's booth. (And for everybody who may have wondered: No, another Christmas Market season went by and Sabienchen wasn't once more able to decide what to buy. Well, we can partly blame it on Richy himself who widened his range this year offering several new nutcrackers... meaning so much more choices for his most beloved almost-and-perhaps-some-future-day-customer)

May you never be too old to play... and of course never too grown up to search the skies on Christmas Eve.

May there be good things to warm your tummy and your heart - but may you never forget that too much of anything isn't good whether it's Teddy's famous "Glühwein" or whatever else...

.. like for example the most delicious and exclusive treats coming directly from Santa's personal baker. Maybe think of enjoying a good chat with a dear friend instead.

And may you never forget to look out for angels... whether or not you're believing in them in the religious or spiritual way. They might happen to be around when you'd least expect them - perhaps holding a lantern for you when you're wandering in darkness or not knowing what to do (or in Sabienchen's case what to buy)

They also might show up to lend a helping hand...

... or to make good times even better...

... or to spoil you with the gift of a smile... just so.

May you never forget the reason for the season and even more what it stands for...

... and may you always be able to find magic even in unexpected places...

... and may you never stop to believe that almost anything is possible... even riding on a real dragon at a Christmas market.

May the new year offer you many, many opportunities - for meeting new friends...

... and for keeping up with familiar ones. May you always be as welcomed as anybody stepping through the gate of the BiWuBeary Christmas Market.

And may you never forget that it doesn't matter who you are, where you're from, what you work or what you do...

... or if your carrot nose is straight and your looks classical while other's wear a carrot of the wonkier type and their looks are - let's call it - somehow more of the unexpected type.

May you always remember that in a world where you can be anything it's a good decision to be kind. And of course may your days be full of love, friendship and plenty of health.

And although this is a very bearsonal wish... may you never notice that we cheated with the following photo which was in fact already taken in 2024. *LOL*

Well, seems like the camera was already in Christmas mode as we failed in taking a good full view picture of this year's BiWuBeary Christmas Market. And may your relief be not too big when we're telling you now that you almost made it. *grin*

Here's to you from our blog to yours: May your Christmas be filled with happiness in all that you do and may this joy continue the whole year through. We're wishing to all of you a

🎄 Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! 🎄

Big hugs from all BiWuBearies and from Birgit too
