It’s Thanksgiving week in the U.S, which means Americans are traveling to gather with family, and descending upon the grocery stores to buy all of the delicious carbs, and a turkey. We lived in Germany for several years, and always enjoyed our little village grocery store that put out a display of what they thought would appeal the American’s living there during Thanksgivings week. Sadly I didn’t think to take any pics of the Thanksgiving display, but these are a couple of other “American” favorites, as sold in Germany.
