stationed in Germany. We were exposed to vast array of foods that we have never been able to duplicate here in the US. Our favorites were the salt rolls (size & shape of hot dog buns) sprinkled with coarse salt and carraway seed, the butter, the cheese, the pickles and all of the beautiful breads, pastries and, of course, gummibaren.

Thanks so much for sharing notes from your recent visit. It really makes me want to go back to see those beautiful places again.

Danke. Danke schoen.
