Yesterday, we explored Salt Lake and found the greatest German deli - picked up two versions of bratwurst, couple kinds of sauerkraut, etc. Also bot an envelope for 'Gulasch' - everything is in German, so will have to find a translator site to help out. lastly, I bot a take out dish of goulash (or 'gulasch' )with spatzle for us to taste for breakfast today....but when we got back to the truck, we just had to taste it and taste it! don't think there's enuf for breakfast now...God,
it was good!!
Also found a German Bakery - you know me, if it has flour in it, I'm hooked! Picked up one of each of about 5 different breads/rolls/goodies.
THEN, a year ago when we were here, I had called the food editor of the S.L.C. newspaper to talk about the farmer's market book I want to do and she mentioned a kitchen store that she thot I really had to check out. Ran out of time that trip, but oh my, I don't think I've ever been in as nice (and huge) a one ever. And the prices were reasonable, not one of those chi-chi (?)$$$$$ places. It was kind of a cross between an upscale restaurant supply and a kitchen store. Yesterday was Tracie's b'day, so found a really great ------------------------ (I'll tell ya'all later!) - and to make sure she gets hers, I bot two!!!! Picked up some everyday goodies - plus some Maldon Salt and things like that. I really could have spent the kid's inheritance in that store.
After a day of being around all the 'gourmet' wonders, what did we come back home to for dinner???? It's in the S.A.R book - the crockpot burrito and chicken dish - talk about a junk food dinner, but it was good!!
Today, we are taking in the local home & garden show - would love to get some more ideas for the yard we're working on at home and I'm sure do some food grazing....geez, I've got to get home to my treadmill!!!
We're here until Wednesday and then on to Pasco, WA - and all the wonderful wines in that area!!!!
