Beer is sparkling, too. I thought it would be beer. Yes, about the water. Be careful when you order a glass of water in Germany. You'll get bottled mineral water which contains carbonic acid and therefore sparkles.
If you want water without sparkles, you have to order telling the waiter you want it without.
So if you say "Wasser", you get sparkling water.
If you say "stilles Wasser" (meaning silent water) you get water without carbonic acid.
Makes you burp better, lol.
Dina:
Sounds good. I think many places here will ask you what water do you want. But for example with the coffe, most places will give you a glass of water...and that is up to the place if it is sparkling water or not-carbonated one.

Hi!
I just had vanilla ice cream with apple juice. Nice. Because my husband complained that everybody eats tons of chocolate ice cream and nobody eats the vanilla. OK, give me the vanilla, lol. I think it's because he put himself in charge of the family's ice cream management this summer. He had to buy a lot of chocolate ice. LOL
I completed the elementary school's supply list today. At least the little one now has everything she needs for the start of school on September 13th. Only 4 books are still missing, but I already ordered them at the local book store.
MicroRegenbogen is very happy about the teacher. She mailed Saturday to introduce herself and send the shopping list. It is cool, when they do it in advance, so one can get the stuff in one's own time and not everybody in the first two school days in full stores. But this in advance stuff only seems to work in elementary schools. MiniRegenbogen will have to go shopping in full stores after her school starts.
Dina:
OMG! MicroRegenbogen and MiniRegenbogen! I loved it :D :D :D :D :D
Congratulations for having most of your shopping already done anyways.
Ok, I admit that if there is chocolate, I wouldn't choose the vanilla, but per se, vanilla ice cream is fine. Nothing to write home about, but it is icecream.

My thoughts exactly. Personally I rarely seek out icecream, even though I love it, but when I do it's chocolate, chocolate, chocolate. Maybe a dash of vanilla mixed in. I don't think I have had any icecream this year though. I'm trying to lose weight.
Huh... MiniRegenbogen, MiniRogen for short, is in for a treat. I always loved book shopping. :D
