Happy Easter
Apparently I can’t bring myself to put together a decent story anymore. What’s going on? Am I still moving and settling in? Or am I just busy enjoying life and forget to take photographs... I made extremely delicious Maultaschen today as it is traditional in this part of Germany. A recipe with lots of spinach which I will share as soon as I have figured out what Bratwurstbrät is in English... Help!!!
Easter traditions. My cousin’s spouse Jana grew up in the Carslbad region of the Czech Republic. She told us a funny story the other day, that Czech boys will weave switch-like whips out of young branches and then chase the girls through town - demanding died eggs. Seriously crazy and so violent and unemancipated. But she just loves this childhood memory of running the streets screaming and laughing. And apparently this is a tradition that is very much alive in the Czech Republic, so be careful if you are visiting around Easter.
My girls have been dying many eggs this year which we will bring with us on our trip to Lake Como tomorrow. Far away from any Czech boys.
