I've been ignoring you my lovely blog. i've been ignoring you because of the physical presence of my mother in Germany. In this time we traveled together to meet distant family, see Munich, and spend time of course in Stuttgart! We spent most of her time here as well with my oma and my aunt.
And I have learned lots of things, I've found lots of answers and more questions. The only thing that was slightly dissappointing was that during the whole time my mother nor my oma or aunt met none of my friends my age. I was planning to bring her to a soccer game but learned too late that it was an away game and I had no way of transporting us there (I thought it was a home game!). It's too bad, but then I guess some of my german friends will just have to come visit me in America (I'm not kidding when I say that I would gladly take an exchange student next year, both my sisters are grown up and our house is empty!).
Some of the funniest moments include our visit in Munich at the Hofbräuhaus (which if you didn't know is one of the freakin' most famous beer houses in the world) where I had a light Weißbier in one of the ginormous Munich beer cups and was a wee bit tipsy (for the first time, in front of my MOM). They sure thought it was funny.
We also noted the how every single goddamn Banhhof in Germany has the exact same billboards featuring the same two new types of ice cream that were themed with the tragic stories of Dr. Schiwago and Gone with the Wind (click on each respectively to see this lovely ice cream) saying that you could buy these ice creams and finally have a "happy ending" to the stories... or something along those lines. Anyway, my aunt became very curious as to how it tasted after we saw thesame billboards five bajillion times and then in turn determined that she needed to try this ice cream and have her happy ending (oh advertising, how effective you are at times). So we searched for it, not very actively until the last few days, when we finally found our happy ending in the Rommelshausen Edeka and brought it home to devour, and oh did we devour. Between the six of us (Myself, mom, aunt, oma, Christian, and Katerina) we finished both containers because advertisement isn't the only thing that makes a product good, so does it's yummified- ness. It was pretty great.
We had a great week, packed and happy and eastery. Chocolately above all. Jesus was a pretty cool guy with some cool ideas (my best friend often likes to call him "the first hippie") but nomatter what you call him, or ifyou worship him or not, you gotta admit-- he was a pretty selfless guy convincing a ginormous bunny to hop around for miles a few days after the anniversary of his death and distribute chocolate to the people of the world. From me, thanks Dude-- your the rockin'est.
