Heh. x-posty with erika, who I just noticed has tagged *me*! Yay!

There is at least one brand of good chocolate from Germany, though I can't recall of the top of my head which it is.

Today, we will be attempting yard work. That'll be... fun.

Steph, I think shrugs are nifty. They beat the hell out of ponchos.

I wound up getting a black dress from the Motherwear outlet like this one : [link] , which has shipped, and therefore should arrive on time, damn it. I need to go to Macy's and find a shrug to go with it.

True dat. Ponchos don't flatter many body types, including mine.

Sauerbraten

Please for to tell me what this is, St. Pauli Girl.

Nuh uh, there are potatoes, too. Actually, stuff like schnitzel, which, iirc, is pork, made me rethink the cuisine of (some of) my foremothers.

Rethink in which direction, erika?

I'm coming down on the side of potatoes. They well may set off my food cravings harder and faster than anything short of donuts, but you can do so many yummy things with them, and they're good when served in more plain fashions, as well.

Sauerbraten. If made by someone who knows what they're doing, it is Teh YUM.

Is Lindt from Germany? Germans (in Germany) supposedly get the best coffee in the world. My mother has a friend who taught over there for years, and was sorely disappointed by the coffee, when she returned home. She has friends send it to her, sometimes. She gave us some, once. It was faboo.

...

I think Ponchos usually tend to flatter the boyishly slender, and children under age 8.

Oh Plei, pretty dress. This is for the wedding, yes?

Oh, so like a vinegar-y stewish sort of thing. I'd try that. I bet the meat is really tender. German food is not big out here. The only place I usually come in contact with it, is this one particular restaurant in New Hampshire, and I haven't been there in years.

Yep. The shorter hair made it easier to shop. Things that would have looked dumpy with the longer hair will look just fine with the new 'do. Hec, shut up.

---

I like your new hair, by the way. I don't know if I mentioned.

Looks like Lindt is Swiss (originally, anyhow). I am trying to google chocolate from Germany. I love how I can pick words out in German: schokolade; extra feine Milch-Schoki; Milchschokolade; Alpenmilschschokolade.

Sarotti is the one I was thinking of. They used to make a bitter cream chocolate bar that was to die for.

I enjoy German food more than I previously thought. There's lots of dill. Love dill. Yeah, Tep, thought you'd like that.
