Mother recently decided that it had been a while since she saw the Black Forest, and within days she was in her car on her way to south Germany. She didn't want to stay further south than Kochem, but did manage a day trip to Trier.
A major reason (to us) for visiting Germany is bringing back FOOD. Packet salad dressing, just add water and oil (I'm not ashamed! It's delicious!), my favourite chocolates (when Jeremy asked me where he should put them, I had to say 'out of my reach') and a gigantic kasseler - a cut of pork not much done outside south Germany, currently nestling in Ma's freezer. I have an awful suspicion she will be cooking her own birthday meal this year.
