:: räbelichti ::


as so many years now, we carved beets and enjoyed the process of digging out the inner parts of those beets. i have been snacking on the shavings, thea and naomi really loved eating a lot of those kind of sweet shavings...
we carved them with little ornaments, i chose stars and thea wanted a big assortment of shapes. then at 6pm we met at the kids school and went for a lantern walk with all the kinder-gardeners and 1st graders. the local brass band accompanied us for a longish walk around the block. it was nice and i had a wonderful chat with a neighbor which i not see too much. the girls enjoyed it and their teachers did a wonderful job in keeping every one excited and singing...
"räbeliechtli, räbeliechtli wo gosch hii..."
