We returned to SF on Saturday for our friends' annual Oktoberfest. Like last year, it was a full day of eating, including making our Laugenbrezeln (pretzel) recipe. Mid-day we took a break from the food to walk the three-mile route through the "black forest" near Cole Valley, around the ridge, and back to the house. After dinner, we were treated to an impromptu costume play performed by all four of them, which probably had a plot but was too hard to discern amidst all the giggling. Or perhaps they were too tired from all the eating. They were asleep in the car before we even hit the freeway.
