At Tengelmann's earlier, while getting some stuff from the deli, I actually made the deli guy laugh and smile-whoa!
First I wanted corned beef (I'm worried, but hey, we'll see)...
Then I wanted Irish cheddar...
Finally I wanted some kaiserbrotchen (rolls)...
I felt he was getting a little bothered by my constant requests (and bad accent), so I smiled and said "und.....(big pause like I was thinking about what else to ask him for) das ist alles! (and...that's all!) and he actually laughed and smiled at me..."Alles? Gut!"
Timing is everything!
They're a hard people to joke with...it's a breakthrough!
