favs from afar

Glücklich Freitag Freunde!
(Can you tell I am missing being back in the Eurozone with my Swiss-German half?)

Today, I'm sharing my fav findings from afar.

For cooking:

An assortment of Switzerland's fine culinary traditions -

a Christmas gift from my lovely future sister-in-law

For baking:

A host of Swiss Christmas cookie-making tools

(to assist Stefan and I improve upon this project next year)

plus a personalized and handmade cookbook

of the Fischer family's finest Swiss cookie recipes -

a Christmas gift from my lovely future mother-in-law

For going:

Munich in winter

For eating:

German sausages of any kind,

but especially a juicy bratwurst in a (too-small) bun

Bon Appetit's Persimmon Bread

- while these little guys are almost out of season,

this is the perfect way to use those extra overripe varieties

(okay fine, I know:

not technically from "afar" but I'm just TOO obsessed)

For drinking:

1

Glühwein - a delicious European wintertime tradition:

warm and cozy mulled red wine with all kinds of yummy spices

For wearing:

Extra big glasses =

an absolute MUST on the other side of the pond

Those big lenses paired with a Parisian striped tee,

a pretty pink topper, some slouchy jeans, and a pair of flats =

EUROPEAN PERFECTION

And just for fun:

Because who doesn't love a European-style picnic?

Enjoy your weekend!
