How was your Sunday? Mine was wonderfully insane, thank you very much. Why, you ask? Well, I spent my day selling mugs and beer tokens down at Wolff's Biergarten, which may not sound very fun to those of you who aren't into crowds or soccer, but it was right up my alley. There were hundreds … Continue reading World Cup mayhem!

Every boy an island
Yep, there were three boys and yes, we did visit three islands. Mission accomplished. Here are some highlights. We actually got on the road precisely on time. This is such a rare occurrence that I could not let it pass without acknowledgement. The drive was uneventful and we encountered no traffic until we got to … Continue reading Every boy an island

Simple, a bit tangy and the perfect balance to my other standard sandwich option, liverwurst. What can I say? I was raised by a German mother. As I aged, I … Continue reading Schooled in cheese.
