Karlsruhe Zoologisch Garten

Anna--The Adventurer Leave a comment

An exciting Saturday afternoon together at the Zoo together, where even the Hippotamus eat Germain cuisine of potatoes and cabbage.

The zoo is much larger than what first meets the eye and it is beautifully laid out, including animals and venues from all continents of the world.

The Seels (also know as Sea Dogs in German) and the Hippopotamus (Known as the
“River Horse” when translated from German) were very active while the Elephants trumpeted at dinner time. A splash of a good time as the seels breached and barked in the water.

Fish Fry at home, super easy

Anna--The Adventurer

 

Making a meal at home is super easy, especially when a friend shared a recipe (or two) to help keep things interesting and tasty (read, I was tired of the same ol’ same old dishes that I was making.) I recalled that while I live in the South-East parts of the United States, Fried fish was a common dish (and oh, how yummy it is, too!!))

So here it goes:

Sides:

1 large can of green beans (warmed up on the stove)

2 Cups of dry, white rice–4 cups of water, cook with pinch of salt

1 small can of sliced mushrooms with a creamy pepper sauce

8 pieces of Alaska Whitening (or similar fish)

Batter..1/2 cup white flour, 1/2 cup corn flour, salt pepper, paprika in one bowl,

Second bowl has an 2 eggs beat with milk

Dip each piece of fish into the egg/milk solution, then dip into the flour mix, coating on both sides. Put the battered fish into a skillet (on medium with the bottom covered in Sunflower oil or your favorite oil) Fry Fish on both sides until crispy and done all the way through.

Place 2 friend fish, a serving of green beans, and serving of rice (with the mushroom grave on top) and serve.

Serves 4 hearty meals (or 8 lighter meals)

People Watching on Kirche Platz

Wonderful fashion and treasures on my eBay

 What an exciting and interesting afternoon-evening of people watching. So much variety and interactions galore–skipping children, a bicycle with a legit trailer, a skinned knee, an elderly man whistling down the cobble stones, a couple on a date (and enjoy Apfel Streudel) and so much more!! While enjoying the visual stimulation, my taste buds were delighted by Blood Orange infused teas and a snack on the very busy platz. What a beautiful day!!!
