My Grandmother hosts a brunch at the Grand America every
December for all her family to celebrate her birthday. Its been
a wonderful (and yummy) tradition where we get to see family and
catch up. After this years brunch my family stuck around to tour the
premises and view the christmas windows (a tradition we used to
look forward to with the candy windows at ZCMI) we were excited
that they were brining back the event. The widows where themed
the ABC's of christmas. The kids were given a check list that they
needed to fill out proving that they searched out and viewed all
the widows, which they then could turn into the candy shop at the
end of the tour for a free cookie.
The candy shop at the end was a sweet tooth wonderland, a pure fantasy.
We were ooing and ahhing over every treat and decoration. They did
such a wonderful job with the shop.
in the corridors between windows different kinds of gingerbread
houses where displayed. They were all magnificent down to the very
littlest details. I took notes as to what food/candy made stable and
interesting building material.
What a delightful afternoon.

Bethany! I wish we would have met up in Switzerland! How fabulous that you two spent some time living in Geneva. I want to hear about it. That country is gorgeous. Let's catch up!
Happy Holidays.
You got great pictures of that magical morning at the Grand. I love that family tradition!
