Culinary Adventures

Plums are in season. We had an excess, so P and I baked a cake - that being the obvious solution to the issue.

Nuss-Zwetschgen-Streusel-Kuchen (Nut-Plum-Crumble cake)

Then on Monday I went to see Milena in Floridsdorf. It was her first day of school (her school is a ship - http://schulschiff.at/) and my first day of work at BOKU.

I've eaten Schnitzel a few times in Vienna but this time we made it ourselves! You have to beat the meat quite thin before doing anything else; we did this by hand but there is in fact a utensil specifically for this purpose, named (but of course!) a Schnitzelklopfer.
