I think I may have found the one thing that tops Nutella on my list of indulgences. This is saying a lot because Nutella has topped the list for as old as Sina is, as it was a mainstay in my snacking regimen during my postpartum convalescent leave (all 60 days of it). But really...this is good.
It's bazaar time here at Patch Barracks again. Same vendors from last year and some new ones. This year, the weather has been completely cooperative. Last year, it was cold, rainy and miserable. This time, it's been sunny and in the high 60s--ideal for shopping! I've been twice already (yesterday and today; thank God for 3-day weekends). The second time I went to grab some more of this stuff.
Anyway, have you ever eaten the Biscoff cookies while in flight? I think Delta Airlines serves them. It's where I first tried them. They're like ginger snaps, but better. I mean, tons better; as in, I always ask for extra on the plane. I could never find the cookies in stores in the States, but they are sold in our Commissary. I love Europe!
Anyway, a Belgian vendor at the bazaar sells this creamy Biscoff spread...
Not sure how I missed this last year because I remember this particular vendor. It's a creamy spread, made with the yummy Biscoff cookies. It has the same consistency as peanut butter and comes in crunch and creamy too. I tried a sample at the kiosk and I instantly fell in love. I have three jars. I'm considering going back tomorrow (the last day of the bazaar) to buy three more. Seriously. This stuff is amazing--especially on a bagel.
At any rate, Sina and I have been enjoying our time together. We've been spending a lot of it outdoors, thanks to Mother Nature. As a matter of fact, we spent our lovely Saturday morning at the farmer's market in downtown Vaihingen (right outside the gate).
Malu will be home next Sunday. Although he'll be turning right around and going on another business trip, we're looking forward to wrapping our arms around him in one big hug. We've missed him so much!
Well, it's time for me to cuddle up and watch a movie. I'll try to post again tomorrow!
