It's looking like I'll definitely be at this end of the country on Sunday. Anything I can bring beyond conversation and company?

[kaberett]

If you want there to be votive booze then by all means make that happen; otherwise, not really :-)

[davidgillon]

I think I can manage to slip a bottle of something into my backpack ;)

Do need a contact number if I'm going to do the stand in front of Baron's Court and wait to be fetched thing! (I've checked and I can't get to your contact details post)

[kaberett]

Thanks for the prod; have added you to the filter!

Also I will make sure to have my chair set up for use in the house :-p

[davidgillon]

Okay, that's working fine, will add number to mobile (when I remember to recharge it!).

What is Seelkuchen? Internet is failing me re: translation... Rest of foodlist sounds gloriously cozy :)

[kaberett]

A thing my Grossmutti did - doughnuts - by analogy with Faschingskrapfen (... which is probably much less funny if you're not bilingual, heh, because it is a charmingly bilingual conversation about The One True Faschingskrapfen, with some extremely confused impressions of how the UK + US do doughnuts and what we consider doughnuts...)

[fyreharper]

Can follow the practical bits of the conversation while only comprehending the English... although yes, I bet it's more fun if bilingual. I can pick out juuust enough of the words that I'll likely come back to it later with-dictionary though, for practice!

(I am going to be able to talk about food waayyy before I'm able to talk about anything else in German ^^; )

[kaberett]

lit "soul cakes"!

[davidgillon]

Aha! I like it. Some of the pics I turned up in searching - I figured out the Faschingskrapfen link - look rather like the large, very yummy, non-fried doughnuts the local cake shop does, though that discussion you linked to seems to suggest they may technically be Berliners.

As JFK said, 'Ich bin ein Berliner'!

An apple, a pear, a plum, a cherry / Anything to make us all merry...

Could you post some pictures of your food & mood (i guess i really mean atmosphere? sometimes words fail) of this day at some point? I wish I could be there but. Pictures bring me connection. If you don't mind, but if you do that's okay!

[kaberett]

yes <3
