Czech Christmas Market

The day after Halloween, the Embassy of the Czech Republic held a special Christmas Market. It felt a bit early to start thinking about Christmas, but we couldn't pass up the opportunity to eat goulash and watch a traditional marionette theatre performance.



Evan loved the marionettes and Bennet mostly loved eating the "trdelnik", a Czech pastry that is made from rolled dough that is wrapped around a metal tube then baked and topped with cinnamon sugar and nuts.

Trdelnik, YUMMY!

  I couldn't resist the beautiful hand blown Czech glass ornaments and I can't wait to see them sparkle on my Christmas tree next month.
