A-Schnitzel-and-a-glass-of wine

I write about the local food specialties and wine, traditions and culture here in southwestern Germany, all from a personal point of view. I will also write occasionally about food, wine and experiences in other parts of Germany, Belgium and France.

About Me

My photo
Janet MacDonald
I live in southern Germany but spend part of every year in Nova Scotia, Canada, as well, flying across the Atlantic each year with two cats. I am a Canadian woman who came to Germany to work for the Canadian Forces Hospital and remained here when the Canadian military closed their base in Lahr. I wrote short travel articles for the base newspaper, Der Kanadier, for several years. I also had several short articles (Letter from...) published in The Globe and Mail.
