Sausage and sauerkraut

Well, it had to come to this: I had to share here what I ate during our time in Salzburg. Because yes, it was maybe the most unhealthy food I ever ate during a trip, it was fatty, meaty, what have you, but it was delicious. Anyway, the first proper Austrian meal I had was in the restaurant of the Hohensalzburg Fortress. Authentic veal sausage, hash browns (the fried potato thingies) and sauerkraut. I regret nothing: it was delicious.

A new great unknown line (from my wife)

Well, no it isn't new per se, it dates back to 2005 or 2006, I think. It is from my wife and it was so funny that it deserves to be listed here as a great unknown line. It is again food related (I might try to vary that a bit). So back then, we were dating but living an ocean apart. I was living in my Montreal flat but was supposed to have dinner with my mother and family at my brother's apartment. My mum had made some baked pasta with mince veal in it. So we were talking on the phone, Veggie Carrie and I, when I saw the time and told her I had to leave for dinner. Before leaving, she said:

"Enjoy your dead calf."

My mum later on found it hilarious and still remembers it to this day.
