1) Schnick schnack means: frills, nicknack, tchotchke
2) There are SO many kinds of pasta sauce. In the states, besides some specialized ones, it's Ragu or Prego, mostly red sauces with various meats. We must be closer to Italy.
3) Holey moley there's some good cheese here.
4) Kartoffel Taschen are these stuffed hash browns. (filled potato pockets).
They remind us of Pizza-Tato-Skins from Round table pizza (from many years ago)
5) The hash browns we buy are triangular and thick, kinda like the wedges at Arbys.
6) Grafs are the "counts" of German nobility. I think they're the lowest rung. They still have big schlosses (castles/mansions/houses). And their wives have their own cute slightly smaller schlosses:
7) For some reason, I have the hardest time saying erdbeere (strawberry). It always comes out like Erd Ber Ma Gerd
8) You can get SO many varieties of Haribo snacks here:
Colorful Vampire
Sweet Mice
Sour legos?
Sour French Fries
Smurfs
Bear Pair (or Bear Partners)
Forest Ghost
And these weird Chicago Bulls things.
