<p>There is a nice smell coming from the kitchen. Petra has just made a chocolate cake, topped with cinnamon frosting - yummy! Have some, folks!</p> <p>It´s a smell of Christmas, although both of us are not (yet?) in the mood for it. Time for a not so little poem?</p> <p>When the snow falls wunderbar<br /> And the children happy are,<br /> When the Glatteis on the street,<br /> And we all a Gluhwein need,<br /> Then you know, es ist soweit:<br /> She is here, the Weihnachtszeit.<br /> <br /> Every Parkhaus is besetzt,<br /> Weil die people fahren jetzt<br /> All to Kaufhof, Mediamarkt,<br /> Kriegen nearly Herzinfarkt.<br /> Shopping hirnverbrannte things<br /> And the Christmasglocke rings.<br /> <br /> Merry Christmas, merry Christmas,<br /> Hear the music, see the lights,<br /> Frohe Weihnacht, Frohe Weihnacht,<br /> Merry Christmas allerseits?<br /> <br /> Mother in the kitchen bakes<br /> Schoko-, Nuss - and Mandelkeks.<br /> Daddy in the Nebenraum<br /> Schmucks a Riesen-Weihnachtsbaum.<br /> He is hanging auf the balls,<br /> Then he from the Leiter falls?<br /> <br /> Finally the Kinderlein<br /> To the Zimmer kommen rein.<br /> And es sings the family<br /> Schauerlich: "Oh, Christmastree!"<br /> And the jeder in the house<br /> Is packing die Geschenke aus.<br /> <br /> Merry Christmas, merry Christmas,<br /> Hear the music, see the lights,<br /> Frohe Weihnacht, Frohe Weihnacht,<br /> Merry Christmas allerseits?<br /> <br /> Mama finds under the Tanne<br /> Eine brandnew Teflon-Pfanne,<br /> Papa gets a Schlips and Socken,<br /> Everybody does frohlocken.<br /> President speaks in TV,<br /> All around is Harmonie,<br /> <br /> Bis mother in the kitchen runs:<br /> Im Ofen burns the Weihnachtsgans.<br /> <br /> And so comes die Feuerwehr<br /> With Tatu, tata daher,<br /> And they bring a long, long Schlauch<br /> And a long, long Leiter auch.<br /> And they schrei - "Wasser marsch!",<br /> Christmas is - now im - A...<br /> <br /> Merry Christmas, merry Christmas,<br /> Hear the music, see the lights,<br /> Frohe Weihnacht, Frohe Weihnacht,<br /> Merry Christmas allerseits?</p> <p>Now you probably won´t be needing Google Translate to understand it. Those of you with German ancestry will love it!</p>
