Once again I am sorry for the lack of newsletters.
We bought a farm this year and I have been very busy.
However I just developed a severe case of Sciatica and can not do much walking,
so those wonderful 12 hour days in the field are a thing of the past right now.
I also won't be going to Germany or even locally to an Oktoberfest.
So I am going to be watching some nice video's of the celebration
so I can feel a part and get my infusion of German, and party craziness with my "Mass" and friends.
I want to share with you also, and some good recipes.
This is a great song to get you in the mood, and has lots of great footage of past Oktoberfests
Through modern technology we can enjoy music from Germany at the touch of your computer, there are many venues now, Pandora, Amazon music, and Youtube is free.
I love my noise canceling headphones that are completely wireless and give incredible sound!

Landeluxe Bamboo Board with Slate Cheese Board and Cutlery
This board is great in that it has room for meats, and fruits on the bamboo and the slate cheese board that works well and you can write the variety of cheese on it with chalk.
This is a great little short vid that shows some of the traditions and top events that happen every year at the Munich Oktoberfest. Also watch them in the process of setting up these huge tents that hold from 5 to 10 THOUSAND people.
Another fun song, not at an Oktoberfest but I promise it will make you
stomp and clap and feel Oktoberfesty

Biography of my grandma
Emma Block From Germany with Love tells the story of my grandma, Emma Block, growing up in a little town in Baden/ Würtemberg, Germany near Heidelberg named Steinsfurt. Then at the age of 15 immigrating to the United States, taking a train with one of her sisters and brothers to Hamburg and sailing the Atlantic with other hope filled Germans wanting to make a life in the "New World". It was not easy but with good values learned in her German upbringing made a full life, had a wonderful family with lots of fun and celebration including the great German meals.
