We invited Josef and Hanni (new best friends /Landlord) over to the house for dinner . Lots of laughter they are better at English that we are at German, which isn't saying much. We all try and the results are humorous. The menu: chicken Parmesan, fettuchini Alfredo, salad and bread from the Natex FABULOUS bread. On Thursday Terry can pick up fresh olive bread, can I just say delicious! It has olives baked into it. Me, not a big fan of olives but I mean to tell you this bread is heavenly. Josef told Terry "do tell your wife the food was PERFECTO!" We got the cheese for the Alfredo from a local cheese shop Organic they say BIO. What a difference it made in the sauce. We had a bottle of white wine that J&H had given us last week. They go to this Vineyard annually and buy for friends and family......... They go and stay in the hills sample wine and ride their bikes. When I say ride, I mean RIDE 40+ km's a day. Would be too much fun, no? It just so happens that we're going on a wine tour thru in the same area about a 2 hour drive from here, we signed up to go in November with a group of no more than 14. Should be fun.
On a side note it was a celebration for our town yesterday. Everyone in town put out their flags, washed the windows, trimmed the flowers, washed the steps. Looks ever so sparkly.....the "hall" in town hosted the festivities. The locals marched all thru the town playing music and showing off their,.........not really sure what is was all about but it was fun to watch, like a township in a parade up and down all the streets (all 5) then to the town hall for I am quite sure a rip roaring time. Every town has this celebration at different times......Hanni said the queen is picked by if she is a good shot...............perhaps next year she will be crowned!
Love you all

BIO is a perfect name for Organic. I can picture the hillarity of foreigners 'attempting' a new language is a comfortable social setting. Great to hear how you are doing. Blog on Liz! Love to you and Terry
