(My first successful attempt at cookie making, and they were pretty damn successful)
Well... I don't really have any pictures to post from our Christmas over here. Without a day off, the idea of travel was far fetched, so I just stayed in Istanbul. I hung out with some co-workers, a pleasant first for me, and had a great time eating, drinking, being merry; all that good stuff. Heck, I even had a stocking!
I did get to go a really good restaurant though for a pre-Christmas Christmas dinner with my good friend Zeynep (who actually knows Nick Mullins). It's a great place called "Canım Ciğerim," which translates to "My Dear, My Liver." They serve skewers, lots of skewers, and tons of flatbread and veggies on the side. It's delicious. They're always super packed, so we had to wait outside for a bit, but it's well worth it.

In other news, I'm really looking forward to my trip home at the end of January, so I've been amassing a stockpile of Turkish goodies for everybody (though, admittedly, some of the goodies are gooder than others). But! Before I come back to the states, I've got one short trip coming up... I'll be going here:
To see these guys:
And bring some of this back to Turkey:
