Hubby dear has had to organize a table too. It is somewhere by the Uni Brücke which is at the subway station "Universität". You're getting the picture here, right?
We've spent a long time brain storming what should be done and how to reach out to regular people and educate them about memory and the brain. My husband specifically studies the hippocampus and "hippocampus", coming from the Greek word "seahorse", led us to the decision to make Seahorse cookies for the kids who pass by. And to make it really cute they get to play a specially made game of memory with our kids. Of course only those who play get a cookie. Needless to say we are hoping for clear, sunny skies and temperatures which are more representative of summer than those we had this weekend.
I haven't made the cookies yet but I wanted to do a bit of a PR stunt so that more people come out to visit us!!
What I do have for you is an amazing cookie recipe that I got this one from the Bochumer Kinderchor after my kids participated in their Christmas concert with the Bochum symphony. It is finally the sugar cookie recipe that I have always been looking for. It keeps it's shape, it tastes great and it keeps fresh and crisp literally for ever. My husband was still eating the ones we made over Christmas in February!!
Here are our Christmas cookies:
Never been quite happy with the icing though. This time I will try royal icing, the one I've been using kind of makes the cookies soggy (but they still taste good).
But now it is time to go to bed so I think I'll post the cookie recipe some other time :)
