If my route to work hadn't changed when I moved last weekend, I very well may have kept on missing out on the glorious market that takes place on Schillerstraße every Friday. I did my best to make up for my past ignorance by buying out half the place: yellow tulips, three kinds of cheese, rose hip jam, turnips, clementines . . . I was out of control. It's a very good thing that the best way to get from work to home is via bicycle, and straight uphill.

Hello dear Kelly!
ReplyDeleteLong time, no hear. I am now following you. But only on Google reader unfortunately: no tripping away to Bangladesh and India for me in the near future ;-) I had to comment on this post, because I can't believe we never went to the Schiller Strasse Markt for lunch on a Friday! I used to ride down the street in the morning on my way to work, carefully avoiding the sausage stand, to pick up my fruit ration for the day. Then it was back again at lunch time to go to my favourite stand, the one which sells lots of delicious deli-like things. Schafskäsehimmel! It's just up from the Commerzbank on the right hand side of the road. You can smell the waffles from there too, which can be perilous! I'm hoping to make a flying visit in late April, my schedule is pretty unforgiving at the moment, so maybe we can have a market trip one day!
