Hey, you know what? The other day I was in Aldis and Steve and I were looking a frozen soup. Lobster bisque. Debating whether or not we should try it, you know? This lady comes up to us and says that the soup is excellent. She had a very thick german accent and we struck up a conversation. She told me she was so glad to have Aldis here now, they've been in Germany for a long time. I asked her where they got the name and she said that two brothers opened the stores...one took north Germany and the other took southern Germany. Their names were Albert and Dietrict (sp?).
The conversation turned to Volkswagens, since we had just got back from seeing my little yellow Bug and she said they are called Kaefers in Germany...with a very soft r sound...almost like KAY-fuh. Pretty interesting tidbit of info, eh? At least it was to me!
Anyway, we didn't get the soup. Too expensive.
You shoulda gone for the soup!
