European – A good Meal

Homemade Risotto

Just a few Days ago, I had visited my Mom at Home. It was only the two of us, so we were actually able to cook something fancy. We always cook something nice when visiting each other, but usually nothing too fancy or too complex. This Time would be quite different.

A delicious Handbrot

Yesterday, I actually visited the Weihnachtsmarkt in Freiberg again. I knew exactly what I wanted to get. I had mentioned Handbrot before, and actually got some this Time.

For a long Time, I have loved Altenauer Limmo. Ever since I had my first drink of that Herbal Lemonade, I had been hooked. For a while, back in 2021, it had then looked like nobody would ever have the pleasure of that fizzy Drink again. Luckily, that crisis was averted by some good oldContinue reading “A new Limmo”

Germany meets Switzerland
