Klassenfahrt 7F Pelizaeus Gymnasium circa 1982

Traipsing around in the the Willy Vlautin song that is my past, makes me melancholic or self-conscious at best. Still I have carried photos and letters with me all these years. As a ping out of the internets arrives, memories of fumbled kisses behind barns and my friend’s hard rock vinyl float to. Never was that fond of AC/DC, but Daniel, your Angus Young impression was the best! In your honor and the rest of my friends in 7F, I uncorked an old box of photos. Prost!

Currywurst

Regardless of whether it was invented in Hamburg or Berlin one of the culinary highlights of a visit to Germany is the Currywurst. Experts find a good Currywurst at a restaurant that has few other menu items. Really the only choices should be ‘Currywurst’ or ‘Currywurst Scharf’. The distinction being extra curry powder sprinkled on top of the mystery sauce. If the carbs provided by the standard issue role, ‘Brötchen’, is not sufficient, you may opt for french fries with ketchup and mayonnaise. Don’t skip the mayonnaise unless you want to be outed as Müsli-eating health nut weakling.
