[livejournal.com profile] evilshell, can I trade you shoes for Christmas food from the Migros?

All I can get here is the German stuff, and it's just not the same. I actually like those Appenzeller biberli. A lot.

For the rest of you, think marzipan twinkie. With the twinkie as gingerbread. With strong coffee, it's just da best.

I got a tube of vermichelli (sp?) last week and went to cinnamon and chestnut heaven last night. I'm gonna go get some more - when Octoberfest isn't in full rage on the weekend over at Alpine Village.

Some stuff is definitely seasonal - thankfully, not all of it bad.

Thinking about Christmas presents. There are people on my list who are tough to buy for - but the good part is they usually go first. And since I shop year-round, I have a large amount of stuff already done. Why, yes - yes, I do. Even with the move from hell this year.

How much do I love giving presents? Bwahahahaaaa....

So! Answer up!

You want a present this year? Gimme your address:

Lessee...Hannukah is early this year, I heard - *checks* - they lied. [livejournal.com profile] varna, when is Yule this year?

I once heard that sleep dep is a powerful cure for what ails you - all I know is that I woke up this morning ready to alphabetize my socks.

And I'm stuck here in a programming freeze while they finish migrating to a new server. Covering help desk calls.

Oh, and if you want an invitation to the housewarming, it looks to be November 8th -

Its so nice that you send gifts to so many people. However, it makes me feel bad because I've only ever even called one of my LJ friends. I'm a bad friend. Arghh!

My goodness, Amazon.com does it all for you - and every year, I put the link to my wish list on my profile.

Failing that, I love bath fizzies. Catch me on messenger and I can give you the mailing address.

Find a way to hook up with [livejournal.com profile] firez and impart some of your wisdom and pluck. I can't get back East this year and he could use some.

Ask away - just off the top of my head, I can remember the praline kugels they used to stock about this time of year - they were about the size of ping-pong balls and wrapped in foil and came in three flavors - white, milk and dark chocolate.

Beeswax candles. Waehe pans. Cookbooks - the list goes on. Are you planning to hit any Weihnachts markets?

Will send steak.

And I get profoundly brain-dead.

Hmmmmmm, I will look for those - I think they'd ship ok (the praline kugels). Beeswax candles should be quite easy closer to xmas.

What the heck is a waehe pan?!

Cookbooks in German, about German/Swiss food? Or about any kind of food?

I'm sure we'll at least hit the local one, and hopefully ones in France and Germany (especially Lorrach, since it is so close and a *really* nice town)..but Josef's a shopping grinch, so I may be finding them on my own :)

I wish I had umlauts on this keyboard - it's what they make those pizza things in the bakeries in - usually comes in onion or onion and bacon flavor? I've also seen plum, apple...

The pan is shallower than a quiche pan, vertical sides like a cake pan -

*laughs* What can I bribe Josef with?
