Farmer's Market In Germany






My 1st Farmer's Experience in Germany. They have so much stuff, but it is a special market where they close the streets and have a lot of vendors from the area. I had a great time looking at all the different booths. They sold many things from veggies, cakes, bread, olives, wine, knitted products, cheese, salami, & more.


  I was amazed at all the different vendors. It was neat to compare our farmer's market to Germany's farmers market. Although this is a special one, they are still both different in many ways, but also similar. For those who know I love farmer's Market, the best of Germany's farmers market is the food. I wish I can try all the different foods, but it will cost a lot of money, and a big belly after. hehehe. But I did try one thing that was unique. It is the apple waffle. This is neat because there is a apple theme this week. I've see so many apples because everyone is harvesting their apples. I'm going to make a apple crisp tomorrow with all the apples we bought. Yum. I can't wait.




Adding pictures is difficult. I hope all these pictures turn out. I really like the pumkins in this picture. This is a different squash that they also decorate. Germany's Thanksgiving was last week. Happy Thanksgiving to all those who are in Canada. I didn't get turkey this year, but I go more. I had duck with Jan's parents last night, I had salmon tonight, and we'll have more fish tomorrow before we head back to Kiebingen.

So, besides many food at the market, there is always an area for children!! Even big children!! hahaha There was a carrsol, bungee trampoline jumpping and a lot more games for kids. Even cotton candy and lots of other treats and toys for kids to buy. But I was too excited about the food and animals. Goats, chickens and goose.


Tower of Apples: What an apple can do for you!

Apples are cheap now. They are being harvested by everyone. Did I already mention that. I think so. So they had this apple tower with words....basically tell you why you should have an apple every day. Most of the saying is "have an apple a day, keeps the doctor away." I have yet to get sick, although, i have had a sore throat...but I think it is due to all the drinking i've been doing i the last week. What an alcoholic I am!!! Do I need to go to AA!!! I hope not!!! HAHAHA. JK.

Goats at the Market!
 The Traditional Braided Yeast Bun!

 But most of all, I gotta have my apples. They are so good!!!

Back to Kiebingen tomorrow. 2 hour drive home....only been there for one night, so i feel like i'm still traveling. I finally did laundry at Jan's parents house. It's like I moved out and went home to do laundry.
Living in another country isn't really different. Just different food and language. I guess that could be enough to be in a different place. :)

Alright, let see what other pictures I should put up. It takes a while to blog with photos. So much to say, but I guess I do have time. More time later when I'm finally home and able to relax. Just so much to do when you need to spend time with your boyfriend and his parents. Its great being here in Germany in a totally new lifestyle. I'm having a lot of fun and learning a lot. That's what's best about life isn't it!!! Learning something new!!! One part of laughter, live the life you dreamed of!
