4 July BBQ

Today we hosted our previous landlord's family for a traditional 4th of July BBQ. We had a great time and ALOT of food. We cooked BBQ pork and beef ribs, potato salad, coleslaw, chips, sweet tea, lemonaid, Hamburgers and baked beans. For dessert, homemade vanilla Ice cream with strawberries or cholocate sauce, brownies, watermelon, cantelope. We have Stoffel wine with dessert and Slovak beer with the main meal. It was the first time our German friends tried these dishes. We ate outside under the shade a tree and the rain held off. It was a great time. We enjoy living in Germany and sharing alot of traditions of our German hosts, visiting so many wonderful places in Europe and eatting so many different foods. The only American culture we can share with our German hosts is our food so we enjoy having them over to eat. ssooooooo Let's eat!!

There is nothing like a good traditional American meal--no matter how far away from home you are.
Happy 4th to all of you and others serving away from home.
