Here are some of the sausages you will find in a grocery. At the bottom rack from right to left, Burenwurst, Debreziner, Knacker and Frankfurters. Notice that each is distinguished by their sizes and colors.
On the middle rack are whole hams; Jausenwurst, Krakauer, Pikantwurst, Extra, and Wiener. They are distinguished by their color casings (synthetic). And lastly on the top rack, are the cuts from the whole hams, in case one is in a hurry to eat. =)

Taking a break from the usual views of the city...I am posting the little unnoticeable dwellers here. People are not the only busy creatures around...bees as well. It managed to collect a few pollen already, look at its legs...
I wonder if we could give this bee a name...any suggestions?
-----
Dear Fenix and Janet, the kids chose Toto as the bee's name! =D Thanks for suggesting...Let's do naming again some other insects and I'd be giving away small stuff too! ;-)
Taken today near our home
Technicality of the photo composition aside, can you tell what is that important something that is missing in this photo?
Let's see who will guess it right. ;-D

-Photo taken at the grocery, I still haven't gone to the market where the sausages are 'hanged.' Sausages refer to prepared food made from meat, fat, salt and spices generally packed in a casing. The casings, just like those of hotdogs or frankfurters as we know are edible while those of whole hams are synthetic. There are different ways of preserving sausages...by curing, smoking or drying in cool air.
There are many types of sausages,those that could be eaten raw or cooked/cured. Raw sausages include salami and round hams among others, really ready to eat straight from the counter while hotdogs and italian pork sausages needs to be cooked first.
More on the sausages soon.

Tulips make me happy because it means that spring has come! This photo is almost 3 years old and so I look forward to new tulip photo sessions this year. Two months more to go...

On a lighter note, people also think of Vienna sausage immediately when they hear 'Vienna.' It has become a common joke between me and friends...'Hey bring me some vienna sausage when you come home.' Or 'How much does a can of vienna sausage cost there?' And many more.
The funny thing is, sausages here are not canned but can be bought 'freshly' naked. Sorry that I don't have a photo of the sausage stores but I will post it later this week. -Fin-
