Monday Memories: Did I ever tell you About our Oktoberfest Party? Yesterday was the Newcomers' Oktoberfest held out here at The Crossing. It was an absolutely gorgeous day - cool enough to be fall, but warm enough to be outside. The trees had turned just a smidge - the yellows and reds are out now - and the sun made them almost glow. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect afternoon! We had 17 people turn out. Mr. Bug served his famous bratwurst in beer. They were phenomenal! Everyone brought a side dish to share - they were all delicious! Mr. Bug particularly liked the red cabbage, the calico beans and the kraut. My friend F, brought a wonderful warm German Potato Salad. It was to die for. (FYI - I usually only like my mom's potato salad, but this was wonderful!) My friend E, brought the most wonderful apple cobbler thing. It was served warm with ice cream. (I used Grambug's oven to keep it warm and it worked like a charm!) Yummmm... I've got to get the recipes for both of those items - and when I do, I'll share with all of you out there in blogland. We had a bonfire complete with smores to end the evening. It was a perfect day in the country!
