It's not a holiday here in China, unpracticed and unrecognized for the most part, and so when Christmas comes for this foreignor, I will be sure to relish one or two of these amazing gingerbread houses to decorate my soul on Christmas Eve and enjoy sweetly with friends. They are now on sale in the bakery section of the Ole supermarket for the low, low price of 88 RMB-just about 12 dollars. It's THE only place for all things internationally delicious here in Chongqing, China. And without a tree, old friends, dear Santa or the usual services and musical events, it will have to be one of the little things which will bring joy this year.
