It's Like F-reakin' Oktoberfest Up There!
Do any of you have German / Austrian families like me? Is this normal behaviour for Germans, or is my family just crazy?
- the stereo is pumping Schihutten-Fete 2000 und Lieder, die von Herzen Kommen
- the homemade wine that my Onkel Leo makes is quickly disappearing
- Tante Traute is starting to speak almost exclusively in German
- Rob and Rich (my mom's cousins, Traute and Leo's sons) are getting louder and "funnier"
- They're about to open the rum...
So that last one isn't that crazy EXCEPT: let's take into account the fact that this rum is EIGHTY PERCENT ALCOHOL. I'm not kidding.
Do you ever wonder why I am the way I am? Hmmmm!
Alright well I've posted like 3,000 times today, so I think that'll be it from me until tomorrow.

It's the festive SPIRIT ;)
Okay so if you want your insides cleaned out after the mince pies and turkey, use that cleaning fluid, erm, sorry, I meant "rum".
We used the Niagara Ice Wine I bought in Ontraio here for our festive lunch :) Oh it is SOOOO good. not a patch on 80% rum but hey...
So long as your cousins don't go around with the rum wearing eye patches shouting "ahoy me hearties!" :|
