DAY 5: CHRISTMAS DAY NUMBERO UNO - Erster Weihnachtsfeiertag
We were up by 9:30, as regulated by my iPhone and met Peter for a formal breakfast in the kitchen.

We realized that we didn't have much time before Julia and the others were to come for lunch.

I prepared the chopped salad with the help of Jason.

F*CK, I forgot to buy salad dressing at Rewe the previous day. I called Julia up and by some miracle, she decided to answer the phone, for a change. Anyway, she found a recipe for a simple dressing, which worked out well (for 4 people.)

150 g Yogurt (6 oz)
2 Tablespoons vinegar
1 teaspoon sunflower oil
salt
pepper
herbs (dill, basil chives)

Dinner consisted of my salad, followed by a delicious meal of perch/pike, potatoes and creamy sauerkraut.

Gabi and Howie showed up for dessert, along with Christine and her niece from Hannover. We drank lots and had some animated discussion. Then, we did more of the same.
