The author expresses their love for Christmas and the joy of cooking during this time of year, with a focus on indulging in rich flavors and trying new recipes.
I GUESS NOW that it’s December, we’re clear to say the word… Christmas !

The Christmas market tourism scene is as crowded as a pop-up ice rink in December, though all the lists usually agree that Vienna is among the heaviest-hitters, with Rathausplatz, the square in front of its town hall, attracting more than three million visitors every year to its Christkindlmarkt.
