So everyone here has been raving about eating Eis (ice cream) at Eiscafe Dolomiti in Speicher so we had to go try it out. They even offer ‘spaghetti’ ice cream that looks like spaghetti noodles. It’s located at Bahnhofstrasse 3 in Speicher right before City Grill. It’s open daily from 10 am to 10 pm!
Just look for the blue sign, there is also a large ice cream cone outside the door as well.

Recently we had to take a trip to Trier to run some errands and of course we couldn’t do so without checking out a cafe in the area. I check our trusty ole Panther Paws and found Cafe Weimer, so we decided to give it a try.
Their address is Grabenstrasse 4-6, I think we used 4 for the GPS. Since it’s a walkplatz you’ll need to use a parking garage or find parking to visit the cafe. To find it [Read more…]
I love that no matter where we travel all over the world, the sign of the Golden Arches always makes me feel like there is an ‘American’ spot where we can find comfort in greasy fast food 😉
We’ve been to McDonald’s all over the world: Iceland, England, Japan, and now in Germany as well. My favorite is still the McD’s in Japan where the workers wear business suits/skirts and literally run to serve [Read more…]
What I used:
5-6 large Idaho potatoes, I [Read more…]
I love finding new recipes off the Internet for several reasons! First I really don’t ‘enjoy’ cooking, I cook because we need to eat ;p So I’m always on the look out for new quick & easy recipes! If it takes longer than 30 mins, I’m out! LOL! Also I get tired of eating and making the same things over and over! Sure we have our favorites but after [Read more…]
I found this tasty recipe over on the Six Sister’s Stuff blog while Mr. B was deployed. It soon became a favorite for us. Even better this recipe required only one modifications for my family, double bonus points! It’s quick & easy, just the way I like it!
I wanted to try it for Mr. B and he wasn’t so sure it was going to be a keeper, but was willing to give it a try.
First I lined my crockpot [Read more…]
This has become one of my favorite soup recipes, although I just made it for Mr. B and he prefers the Chicken Enchilada Soup we make, which I’ll post at a later date.
Again this is a super simple and quick recipe which makes it a keeper here, well at least for me 🙂 Guess it’ll be a TDY or Deployment recipe since Mr. B is stuck on the other one.
Chicken Tortilla Soup
½ can of chicken broth
We were looking forward to trying out one of the breakfast places in the local area, after going some ‘research’ online we decided on The Pancake Pantry on the Parkway in Gatlingburg, TN. And yes, I do research even the places we are going to eat at sometimes ;p It was about 3/4 mile walk from the hotel that you should NOT stay in.
First off, please note the ATM Inside sign…mean anything? [Read more…]
Smothered Chicken by Taste of Home has been one of our family’s favorite recipes for years, so much so that we’ve over done it at times, LOL! We did not have it at all while Mr. B was gone for his 15 months so shortly after he arrived back we decided it was time to reintroduce it back into the meal planning.
It meets all my ‘requirements’: it’s super easy to make, quick, and can be easily [Read more…]
We were looking for a place to eat along the parkway and we’d seen the Best Italian Restaurant, then we asked for recommendations at the Visitor’s center and the lady told us it was good, so off we went! We were wanting to visit a locally owned place and not a ‘chain’ because you can visit those anywhere, this place fit the bill.
As we found with all the places on the Parkway the prices [Read more…]
