    Fact of the Week about Germany:  

    Ice Saints in Germany:
    A popular belief in Germany that goes back to medieval times is that you can be more or less certain that after the days of the Ice Saints there will be no more frosty weather. So you can start to seed not frost-resistant plants.

      I wish we did BBQs. We have 2 BBQ stands but haven’t gotten round to using them. I would start with an appetizer (when we get going) and then serve the salad with the grilled things on offer

      What a great question and your salad sounds very intriguing. (What are canned maize grains BTW?)

      I love to start off casual evenings around the grill with small glasses of icy, spicy, boldly flavored gazpacho. Green Chile Gazpacho and Red Bell Pepper Gazpacho are two of my current favorites.
