Hi Carol,

 CS> Pretty nice places.  Grocery store in basement.  Appliances on 5th

Sounds like it would be a fun place to shop. I hit up the big department
stores in Frankfurt and Berlin semi regularly, sometimes to introduce a
newcomer to shopping on the economy. One of the stores in Frankfurt had
a nice kitchenware section; I still have---and use---some of the wooden
pieces I got there. Got one thing we thought was (and I've used it as) a
potato masher but our friends in PA said it is a kraut stomper. When
cabbage is cut and put in crocks, salt added, to make sauerkraut, it is
"stomped" as every layer is put down. This helps break down the cabbage
so it'll ferment faster.
