The Christian calendar
German cuisine has often been labeled as stodgy and fatty, which can be attributed to the lack of variety in the rural German countryside until the last 200 years. Cozy gatherings with food and drink are the essence of German Gemuetlichkeit. The Christian calendar is a map for German social events and there is always a celebration happening somewhere, with food specialties, presents and homemade Rocket German entertainment. Located in the middle of Western Europe, its at the same latitude as Newfoundland, which means the summer nights are long and inviting while wintertime is cold and snowy. Germany is a land full of culinary delights.
