Who cut the cheese?

Who cut the cheese? - Hi, friend Tales from the Highway, in this article entitled Who cut the cheese?, we have prepared this article well and concise to be easy to understand for you to read and can be taken inside information. hopefully the contents of the post that we write this you can understand and useful. okay, happy reading.

In my haste to put out my last post, and in an effort to keep it short

and hopefully interesting - I forgot one of the highlights of our trip...

New Years Eve!

Before I get there however, a couple of housekeeping items:

First...  Remember I said that Kate learned some new German Words

in the Bierhaus in Munich?

Well here are her teachers.

They had been there since 1030am and it was around 7pm.

This is me and "Christmas Greggi"

In his pocket are "The two Doodles

Christmas Greggi is a new addition and looks over the family dinner table

during the holidays.

Frankly I don't see the resemblance - do you?

Finally - in my previous post I talked about our Alpli-Milch that we had 

enjoyed in the small Swiss Bar in Zurich. 

It came in 50cl jars and is poured into small glasses.

It is quite thick, creamy, and foamy when first served.

Here is a picture of it.

Now to New Years....

Think of a cool moonlit winters night.

Add in a nice warm campfire.

Now throw in some wine...    some good crusty bread...  and some cheese.

Sound good?    You bet.

Throw it all together in a big pot and you have Swiss New Years.

We celebrated the arrival of 2015 with a traditional Swiss Fondue over

a nice wood fire outside in the snow.

First Marcel & I went into the village to pick up the cheese

and then the girls prepared it indoors.

Wine and secret ingredients are added to the cheese and it is heated till melted

to just the correct consistency.

This is their friend Bridgette stirring the mixture.

Bridgette works in a local Bakery and brought the bread.

It is a special bread made just for fondue.

It is sliced some before baking.

Then baked until it has a nice hard crust.

The bread is then broken apart and put in a bowl.

Meanwhile the fondue is almost ready for the fire.

A tri-pod was erected over the fire.

A chain with a hook is suspended from the top of the tripod.

The pot is suspended from the hook.

You can move the hook higher or lower along the chain to adjust the heat

of the fondue.

The pot was hung from the Tri-pod and it was time!

Long forks make the job simple.

Dip, twirl, enjoy!

Wine, bread, and cheese on a stick!   

Can't go wrong with that!

At midnight we were treated to church bells ringing and more fireworks than we

usually see on the 4th of July.

 It was a New Years Eve to be remembered forever for sure.

Kate & I hope that all of you had a very Happy New Year,
and wish you all the best for 2015.
