Ich Bin Ein Brotfinger

Tonight we hosted a German themed dinner with our dinner group. We are new to the group and this is only our second dinner event. The group (of four couples) has been meeting every other month for about 9 years now.

As we were hosting this time we had to come up with the menu and divide it up so that everyone gets to cook something for the night. I did a mustard and schwarzbrot. Kim made bratwurst, spaetzle, pretzels and two cheese fondues.

Anyway, the blip is of our friend Heather in the process of making wiener schnitzel. She had a great outfit and hat that I thought made her very much look like a Berliner. Not that I know any Berliners.

Here is the full menu:

And big thanks to my Mum for help with the menu. The Rinderrouladen was a big hit.
