A special Bavarian treat - Rahmfleckerl
RahmfleckStall after stall offering all kinds of Bratwürschtl’n (Bratwurst), Dampfnudeln (sweet yeast dumplings) or Steckerlfisch (fish on a stick), but to top things off, there is one item, I’m especially fond of: ever heard of a crispy Rahmfleck or Rahmfleckerl?

Weekend Tidbits
GranitaThe heat has gotten to us. After its long anticipated arrival, we already wish for a bit less. Ironic? Anyway, it made us stay clear of the kitchen for the most part this weekend. Did it keep us from finding good things on the net? No way.
Flea Market Impressions
Fleamarket impressionsAmong my biggest weaknesses are flea markets. Having a special spot in my heart reserved for all things antique, flea markets are a perfect and oftentimes underrated place to find little treasures.
