Comments on: A new look http://www.lucidindeutschland.net/2006/11/27/a-new-look/ a Florida girl living in Munich, Germany Tue, 17 Jan 2012 03:36:27 +0000 hourly 1 By: hezamarie http://www.lucidindeutschland.net/2006/11/27/a-new-look/comment-page-1/#comment-642 hezamarie Wed, 29 Nov 2006 13:27:00 +0000 http://www.lucidindeutschland.net/?p=183#comment-642 @JT: Thanks for the thumbers. I think your banner is the coolest I have displayed.<br /> <br /> @Maribeth: That'll be sweet for Christmas, puppies!<br /> <br /> @James: Great question and sorry I didn't have time to elaborate in the post above. As you know, Thanksgiving is an American tradition, maybe in places like Frankfurt or Kaiserlautern chances are greater of finding the turkey-pot. Sometimes you can get lucky and find a rogue butterball in a batch of frozen chickens at a local Tenglemann's.<br /> <br /> Apparently the turkeys make their appearance in December, a popular dish during the Christmas holidays. So if one desperately wants to cook-up the whole Thanksgiving shabang in Munich, the Hohenrainer in the Viktualienmarkt Market (an expensive, weekly open market/tourist trap) sells fresh Turkeys. You have to order 2 weeks in advanced and it costs about 9.00 Euro per kilogram. Honestly, I don't know how I could stuff a 6 kilo turkey in my tiny oven, hehe. So in a nutshell, chicken was a no-brainer. One of these years I'll get the gizzards to cook the real deal.<br /> <br /> @ Pinger: Hey! We only have MickeyDs and BK, but over the past year they've been selling burgers with jalapenos and spreadable cheese. I haven't tried it either. But maybe today... for comparison purposes :-) @JT: Thanks for the thumbers. I think your banner is the coolest I have displayed.

Yup, Paul got the nitrate-free bacon - and it was good :thumbup: No, it didn't crunch up, but if I only expect canadian bacon/ham, then it hit the spot - salty and fatty!<br /> <br /> tonight was sausage and sauerkraut.<br /> <br /> Wendy's is advertising a new burger. Bacon, monterary cheese and jalapenoa with cheese sause in between 2 hamburger patties! A little overboard, of course, but I def want to try it. Never has cheese and jalapenos on a burger before. mexican night, huh? sounds good. our monday was BLT night.

Being in Southern California makes for easy ingredient shopping of that sort :-) Out of curiousity was chicken simply your preference or would turkey have been more difficult to obtain?

And you're right, Germany in the winter is really this color!<br /> Glad you had a Thanksgiving, even if it didn't have the traditional turkey. But chicken'll do!<br /> I'm still recovering from that holiday. I told my cousin, Janet, that on Christmas is just her family, me, Hubby and the puppies!!!:thumbup: Love the new look.
