I thought that I could provide some interesting commentary on things around the base as I walked home from the gym this morning.
I was wrong. I'll prove it to you.
Here is our wonderful Commissary. It is considered the worst in Germany. However, it is partly under construction. So the outside is just as big of a mess as the inside. In two years it should be up to snuff.
The other night I went out to get a few things for dinner:
- Orecchiette pasta
- Swiss Chard
- Cannellini beans
- Lemons
They had the lemons. I ended up substituting bok choy, for the chard, great northern beans for the cannellini beans, and shell pasta for the orecchietta. It worked out, but, that's kinda the way it is here, the commissary has nothing you want and nothing you need, but it's there when you have no other options.
But, hey, they prices are good, so that's something.
Also, we have these trees that look like Birch trees, but instead of having bark that peals, it just sorta does this...it splits and gets all funky looking.
Anyway, I'll do better with the pictures. I promise
