Q4 Which food and drinks do you enjoy around the holiday season? Any recommendations?
replying to @findinganeish @findinganeish @paulpassingthru @kate_frankie I'd recommend Kartoffelsalat :) (or even Kartoffelsuppe, but that's something rather local where I'm from) #PTTravel

@kate_frankie I did love it… we were there for four days and walked miles!
I’m hoping when normality returns to visit Budapest next in the run up to Christmas

@kate_frankie #pttravel A4: not mulled wine, because it's weird.
I don't think there's anything I eat or drink now that I wouldn't eat or drink elsetime? Nothing springs to mind anyway ....
A4: So many good ones. Bailey’s is a go-to for dessert-type drinks. There’s lots of great Christmasy craft beers in America. My favorite is Kentucky Christmas Morning from Hardywood Brewery. I enjoy the Italian tradition of the Feast of the Seven Fishes for food. #PTTravel

A2 I don't generally do Christmas trips but my biggest journey took place at this time of the year.
I also love to do NYE trips - London, Edinburgh, Geneva, Vienna, Sydney, Reykjavik
A4 I enjoy food that keeps me warm like a vegetable soup 😍 but also mulled wine and all kinds of potatoes. Some traditional German food for this season would be "Sauerbraten" (not in the pictures) #PTTravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A3. Even though I’ve not travelled this year, I’ve still enjoyed trips to Aberdeen, Dundee, Edinburgh and Glasgow. #PTTravel
replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A4 Sprouts! Love them! And my M-in-law makes the best vegey rolls. I love iced mince pies too. Can’t stand Mulled Wine though! #pttravel
replying to @RooLovesTravel @RooLovesTravel @kate_frankie sprouts taste like they look. And if I wanted to taste a shrivelled ball that smells of cabbage, I'd be on Grindr. #pttravel

A3 Some very different trips - a couple of traditional market type places and other fun things to do like chase northern lights
#PTTravel Chat
Q5 Which music, movies or books do you enjoy that have a holiday season vibe or that remind you of this time?

replying to @BPackersGuide @BPackersGuide Great trees there! Love the decorations #PTTravel
A5 I really love the movie Hook but I could watch it all year long. Same for Nightmare before Christmas 😍 #PTTravel
replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A3: Tallinn/Helsinki was a fairytale trip with the cutest markets - can't remember which city this was. We'd gone to see @muse play in both cities one December :) #pttravel
replying to @dgtlwriter @dgtlwriter Sounds amazing. I will get there one day #PTTravel
replying to @RTWBarefoot
@kate_frankie actually, given Q5, I've thought about this more and I have a better answer / relatable comparison.
I see Christmas like I see sex. I know other people enjoy it & I'm happy for them & hope they get pleasure from it. I just can't relate to their joy for it #pttravel
A4 Mom used to make Christmas cookies with colored sprinkles baked in molds. That was a long time ago. #PTTravel
replying to @RTWBarefoot @kate_frankie I'm asexual, aromantic, and afestive #pttravel :D

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A4: All of it :) We went out for dinner tonight for my Mum's birthday and I ate roast turkey, with choc-chip bread & butter pudding with custard, for afters. Winter is my season #PTTravel
replying to @RTWBarefoot @RTWBarefoot This is such a you vibe. I can't! It just hits the nail on the head so much #PTTravel
replying to @BPackersGuide @BPackersGuide @kate_frankie yay :) #pttravel we need a flag ... lol.
A5: I love Scrooged and National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. Seasonal but still very funny without being corny. #PTTravel

A5 For a few years I didn't consider Christmas official until I heard The Royal Guardsmen sing Snoopy's Christmas on the radio. It seems to have been a while since that song has been in the rotation. #PTTravel
replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A5 my xmas playlist is currently 30hrs long. I love most xmas movies, including really crap ones. Anything that brings joy! My Mother is sure she was given the wrong baby all those years ago… #pttravel
replying to @paulpassingthru @paulpassingthru That's lovely. Your markets look great. Pittsburgh Gardens are stunning too #PTTravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A4. Honestly, if Christmas was just glühwein, roast parsnip and cranberry sauce I would be fine with that. #PTTravel
