In case you didn't know, Spekulatius is a kind of cinnamon-flavoured biscuit popular at Christmas time in Germany (and according to this site in Holland too). With just four months to go to the big event, my local supermarket is getting into the swing of things with this pile of seasonally decorated spekulatius displayed prominently at the entrance.

It won't be long now until the first Berliners have their Christmas lights up in their windows.
