You know you’re in Leavenworth when…

  • …you smell the sauerkraut. (“I love the smell of sauerkraut in the morning!”)
  • …you seriously consider sauerkraut as a pizza topping.
  • …you seek out a sausage platter for 2nd breakfast.
  • …the questions isn’t IF you’ll have German beer with lunch, but WHICH German beer.
  • …you consider it restraint when you only get 1 1/2 lbs of fudge at the Fudge Hut.
  • …you set your alarm to get up early for breakfast to make sure you have room for lunch, 2 snacks, dinner and dessert. (“I don’t think he’s heard of second breakfast, or elevensies.”)
  • …there’s always room for just one more chocolate truffle.
  • …10 year old cheese is a VERY good thing.
  • …the pizza place has a mustard bar.
  • …you see Woody Goomsba getting a good sanding.
  • …seeing Dr. Seuss hats on people is a normal occurrence.
  • …people take pictures of empty streets, in the middle of the night, in the snow, of Christmas-lighted buildings.
  • …it’s July and you are buying Christmas ornaments.
  • …when you wear an Australian hat and duster, and speak with an endearing drawl.
