Germany, Part 2

I'm back from Germany! Unfortunately, I did not have internet access during my last week there, so I haven't been posting as many pictures as I would have liked, but here are some highlights.

This is a Doner Kebab. It is one of the most delicious foods ever. They have many doner restaurants scattered around the cities in Germany. It's similar to a gyro, but it has different sauce and salad on it. And it's about as big as your face, for only 2 or 3 Euros. I'm definitely sad there are none of these locally.

This is the Baltic Sea beach at Juliusruh the only clear day we had. It rained every other day we were there. At least there was this beautiful sunset to make up for it!

We got to visit the city of Stralsund for a day. It was lots of fun just getting to walk around and look at the architecture. We also got to visit the aquarium there, which was very interesting. Plus it was one of the most beautiful days of weather we experienced while in Germany.

Food Making

Lately I've been trying to summon up my Home Ec. skills and experiment with cooking. So far so good. Here's a picture of my manicotti. Supposedly the recipe comes from my great grandmother who came from Sicily, but it's suspiciously similar to the recipe on the noodle box. Coincidence? I think not. Obviously, Barilla stole my great-grandmother's recipe for their own. Regardless, it was delicioso.

After the oven: Golden brown and yummy!
