Green Cabbage and Film!

The Grünkohl Tour was a smashing success!  It was absolutely a ton of fun walking, drinking, eating and dancing all night long.

I was constantly asked through the night, "Do you do something like this in America?"  The answer: No way!  This would never flow in the U.S.... unfortunately.  First off, we're not allowed to drink in the street.  Well, only in two cities we are.  Secondly, I seem to think that something like this would not end so civilized, and certainly be something the public would complain about.  Large groups of people walking around in the cold... at night... while drinking??? I don't think so.  What I find so interesting is that no one questioned what we were doing.  We were about 50 people, if not more.  We even passed a few other groups doing the same thing!

Not to mention the choice of food.  Green cabbage.  It doesn't sound the least bit appealing at all.  However, it really is.  I've certainly opened my mind with food.  A few years ago, this would not have touched my lips.  No, I take that back... it would not have made its way onto my plate.  I can imagine a large number of people would also agree.  This type of food isn't found frequently in America, and definitely isn't something that people would look forward to yearly.

Moving on...
Thursday is filming day in the bakery!  A film crew is coming through our bakery while we work to get some shots of us.  I believe this film will then be turned into an informational/advertisement film for us which will then be placed on the website or maybe even Facebook (p.s. we're on Facebook).  I'll be sure to keep you updated on the film, i.e. when it's coming out and where to find it!
