It's a day late but it's still the holiday weekend. That can only mean one thing. Time for my world famous Kraut Dogs.

They weren't happy but we made it through with two clean bills of health. The doctor and assistant both said they were cute, pleasant kitties. Both seem quite happy to be back home.

Tomorrow night (later tonight, technically) is my... I think, 24th fantasy baseball draft. Maybe 25th. I have the 5th pick, so I'm guaranteed one of these players. Which one do I want? I don't have much of a choice if four are already taken. But it's fun to pretend.

This is likely of no interest to anyone but me but whatever. Sometimes, I practice German by creating nonsense paragraphs to see how well I can put together basic sentences. I think of a topic and type it in German in Google Translate to see how I do. One from tonight: Die Dokument (The Document)

I saw someone on TV make a Shakshuka with chick peas and greens the other day. Gave me an idea for a quick, healthy dinner option so I tried it out tonight. Ok for a first attempt. Will try again Onion, garlic, chick peas, chix broth, baby spinach, crushed red pepper, and shredded Parmesan cheese.

Had a lovely dinner tonight down the pub. This guy didn't say much but he was decent enough company.

Turns out, the chili was good, as expected. I asked if they sell a lot and the bartender said they do. Which I was happy to hear. I don't know if all the chili we know in the states is uniquely American or not. But variations certainly are. No matter, chili is tremendous in all its forms.
End of feed.
