Nice to see you on this blog.<br /> <br /> Following farmgirl around in the German supermarkets is really exciting. I don't tell her about the looks she gets from store clerks, other shoppers, and an occasional store detective. I pretend she is not my daughter but a client who is culturally challenged and that I have to protect her. When I explain how trusting and innocent she is, people hand me money and wish us well.

I wonder if he would like Nougat Pillows.<br /><br />And it appears that in Germany they understand the health benefits related to eating chocolate. I should fit in quite well there.<br /><br />Ive seen those chocolate covered bananas here at my grocery store. <br /><br />Wobble pudding. Thats funny to me.<br /><br />And now, having seen that pig stuff for a second time...I can say that I still dont like it.frugalmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03013856124264535872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5845299642721912499.post-75275575007662027082009-07-03T05:39:58.476-07:002009-07-03T05:39:58.476-07:00OH!

I'm also impressed that you can vacation AND blog at the same time. <br /><br />Now, about that pig's head jelly. It looks like hogshead cheese to me. As a good southern girl, I know all about it. However, I do NOT eat it, although I understand it can be quite good.<br /><br />The pear yogurt looks yummy, and do I see fig behind there, too?<br /><br />This is just so great; it's like the ultimate shopping trip!

And after it cooled it was quite gelatinous which held the scrapple together so we could slice it, fry it in butter, and drizzled maple syrup on it.

They're huge, huh? Oh, and those malted milk balls - I think they're German, I can't remember the name for the life of me - but they're all the rage in Spain, too.<br /><br />OOOH!

I don't know why since they never drink more than a swallow of it. I won't even try a swallow.
