Last night (Thursday) was our famous American Breakfast night served by the faculty, staff, of the Austrian Program.
The menu included over 400 sausages, 350 scrambled eggs, pounds of potatoes, and gallons of homemade waffle batter and maple syrup.
As they cooked, the faculty and staff enjoyed cherries soaked in schnapps as well as warm spiced wine.
Cooking began at 7:30 and there was already a line halfway through the Mensa by 8:45 even though serving didn't officially begin until 9:00 PM.
It is amazing how we all crave the little things which are familiar and dear to our hearts -- little things such as breakfast.
It was a great success with only a little waffle batter left over -- everything else was devoured!
We will continue the tradition of American breakfast in Austria for semesters to come!
