Today's post is not about life in Germany. Instead, it's about life back home. Today is Forestburgh Day!
Forestburgh is the small town in Sullivan County New York. It also just happens to be where I grew up. Every August (for the past three years anyway) the town gets together and celebrates, well, Forestburgh.
In the morning there is a 5K run/walk to support Hospice of Sullivan and Orange Counties. Then in the afternoon there will be a pioneer re-enactment, silent movies (the first silent movie was shot in Forestburgh), and a chicken BBQ.
Even though I an unable to attend the event this year, I wanted to let everybody back home know that I'm thinking about them.
About Me
- Erin
- Ridgewood, NJ, United States
- In the fall of 2007 my husband and I moved to Germany. After more than a year of traveling, eating, and living abroad, we were transferred back to the states. At the time of our return, I was 34 weeks pregnant. This is a true account of our re-assimilation, reverse culture shock, and impending adventure into parenthood.
A Southern Something
I don't think there are quite enough sausages in the South to maintain the "Wurst of the Week." Instead, I am replacing this sidebar feature with "A Southern Something." To start, I'd like to introduce you to chow chow. A pickled relish, chow chow can be made from any number of vegetables, including cabbage, onions, or green tomatoes.
