Christmas Items

My wife and I ordered several items from Amazon for the Christmas season. Here are four of the five items I purchased: chestnuts from Italy (for roasting); a chestnut cutter/scorer; Torrone (almond nougat candy from Italy); and Pfeffernüsse (iced gingerbread cookies from Germany). I also ordered Archway Cashew Nougat cookies that I ate already.

I have enjoyed the Torrone candy (vanilla, lemon, and orange flavors) since I was a kid at my Italian grandparents' home in the 1960s and 1970s.

I am closest to my Italian and Austrian heritage than I am to my Swiss and Portuguese heritage.
