Hi Anne,
can you believe it, you are in my Homecountry! I miss it a lot and I'm still homesick, after all those years.

My city is Bad Kreuznach, no is not bad, it just means it is a city that you can restore yourself in, healthwise. (Bad means bath). For those who don't understand german. The city is close to Mainz/Wiesbaden, Frankfurt is one driving hour away.

Oh how much I miss it, especialy now. Der Christkindlmarkt must be coming soon. Hm, I hope you enjoy some warm Gluehwein. Remember me, with your first sip.

Now I'm realy homesick, I got to go, there is just no place like home, no matter where you are and I do love America.

I will make my own quilt, and I will post it too. Should I figure out how to post pictures.

Thanks for welcoming me,
Happy Thanksgiving and should we not here from each other again

Frohe Weihnachten und ein gesundes, glueckliches Neujahr
Merry Christmas and a happy, healthy New Year

Love Ilona
