http://emmasexpatadventures.blogspot.com/2012/05/eurovision-part-1.html
Musings of an English Mummy in Germany. Friday, 25 May 2012. Eurovision - part 1. I have to confess - I love. So as a result of this, and also of finding a couple of other Eurovision fans nearby - I will be holding a Eurovision party on Saturday - you understand with the sole intention of watching the 'Grand Prix' as I understand it's called here - doesn't that elevate it's status so much more! At 8pm (the concert starts at 9pm but we need to indukge in the build up too! As for me - fortunately my countr...

http://emmasexpatadventures.blogspot.com/2013/07/a-taste-of-home.html
Musings of an English Mummy in Germany. Tuesday, 2 July 2013. A taste of home. If you're a regular reader, you'll know that my life here seems to be one social whirl of parties and associated baking! With the odd bit of culture thrown in - oh and perhaps some wine (more of that later I'm sure! Not to disappoint, here's another post covered in chocolate, as I was when baking for a friend's recent housewarming party. Now I had googled extensively (as one does) and came across the GBBO. Cue another big UK/U...

Emma's Expat Adventures: Schularzt Untersuchung
http://emmasexpatadventures.blogspot.com/2012/11/schularzt-untersuchung.html
Musings of an English Mummy in Germany. Thursday, 15 November 2012. And so back to the fun and games that is German bureaucracy. H (5) is in the last year of Kindergarten and next year becomes 'Schulpflichtig' meaning that he is required by law to attend school, no not be educated / learn etc but actually, physically go to a school and be taught there - you are not allowed to home school in Germany (in fact one German family was granted asylum.

Emma's Expat Adventures: Big Bad Wolf
http://emmasexpatadventures.blogspot.com/2013/05/big-bad-wolf.html
Musings of an English Mummy in Germany. Friday, 17 May 2013. Otherwise titled "I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your house down" - or knock it down with a wrecking ball and throw up some cubist monstrosity. Well that's what the current state of the property market seems to be like around here to me. If you're a regular reader of my blog, you may be aware that since early 2011 we've been looking for a house to buy ( to buy or not to buy. However, the main one I've really struggled with is the propens...

Emma's Expat Adventures: Baby you're a firework (or something like that)
http://emmasexpatadventures.blogspot.com/2013/07/baby-youre-firework-or-something-like.html
Musings of an English Mummy in Germany. Monday, 8 July 2013. Baby you're a firework (or something like that). Yes, it was our American expat friend's annual 4th July party at the weekend - and we all rocked up to help them celebrate casting off the shackles of British oppression all those years ago (or something like that! 4th July Celebration Cake. As ever, the dilemma of what to take arose - all we seem to do is eat and drink at every event we go to (but it's not all. I then layered the first pair of r...

Emma's Expat Adventures: A Smashing Time!
http://emmasexpatadventures.blogspot.com/2013/06/a-smashing-time.html
Musings of an English Mummy in Germany. Thursday, 13 June 2013. Last weekend saw us in a flurry of social engagements - so much so that I had to (very reluctantly) miss Bookgroup. Mr EE had been in the States all week, flew back Friday and that evening we'd been invited by our next-door-but-one neighbours to celebrate the forthcoming marriage of their son at a Polterabend. They hold in their garden. Anyway, I digress a little, so the week before the Polterabend. Then, when I come back after shopping, the...
