The annual show-off Christmas presents posting.
Right. So... this year's presents were:
- Books: Die Gräfin: Marion Dönhoff. Eine Biographie. by Klaus Happrecht (from mom, a biography about one of the most important female German journalists of the 20th century), Kalte Füße inklusive: Mein Jahr in der Antarktis by Nora Graser (from
schnelmi and
heitidei, my sisters, the account of a German geophysicist of her 15 months on Georg von Neumayer, the German research station in Antarctica) and My Life in France by Julia Child (also from my sisters, Julia Child's account of her years in France)
- Audio book: Dr. Siri und seine Toten, written by Colin Cotteril and read by Jan Josef Liefers (crime novel, read by one of the few German actors I really, really fancy)
- Taboo XXL (obviously, there is no English version of that game... I pity all of you who live in English speaking countries!)
- A Classic Card from the sisters (it means that for a year I can get best seats at the opera and ballett and concerts in Berlin for 8 or 10€ which is extremely cool since usually it's horribly expensive to get tickets... yay for the sisters!)
- bed socks
- a pajama (every year I wish for a pajama because I think I don't have enough and more often than not I GET one and then I'm surprised I have so many... :D)
- an inguana (well, plush one, I mean) and two romance novels from
koboldmaki which is uber-cool but probably only her and me can understand why :D
- also, LOADS of books from
mackenziesmomma that are too many to be named here... the only one I'd like to name is Marley & Me, because I was so much in love with the book and thank her so much for giving it to me!
