If there is one thing we love here in St.Louis besides baseball its brewing beer! We been doing it for about 210 years hell we even built a bar during Prohibition and served a bottled “beverage” that was so called “non-intoxicating” lol

The German “Bevo”

Germany. Over my Christmas break, I binged watched a German show that was translated into English. Ever since watching that show, I wanted to learn more about the languages that are spoken in Germany and how the culture is. This class allowed me to do just that and is continuing to expose me to things I realized I have wanted to learn about but never got much of a chance to experience it first-hand until now.

German food items are those in which I cannot exactly pinpoint. The taste is definitely different than what I usually eat. It is cool how I can put myself in the shoes of those who consume this type of food daily, and it makes me think that maybe food really can give us a “taste” of what it is like to live in a certain place.

Das Bevo is located at Bevo Mill in St. Louis, Missouri. The waiters were very welcoming and happy to explain that the restaurant is approaching 102 years old. Of course, with a 102-year-old building, a lot of history is involved. A man once lived there in the upstairs part of the building when he would visit the Bevo Mill years ago. We were given additional background information about the food and the restaurant/home in general. We were free to go upstairs (and there were many stairs), and downstairs to explore, and I realized the upstairs once looked like a lovely home for someone to live in. It is composed of many rooms overlooking the streets of St. Louis running below, and the mill continues flowing freely outside. I think it would be so interesting to be able to be so close to an active mill. The downstairs was quite beautiful as it was decorated with white roses in a vase on a table and a grand piano.

The only three things I received on my plate that I already knew of as an American were the bratwurst, schnitzel, and soft pretzel. The soft pretzel part really caught me off guard because I thought it was only an American thing, but boy, did I enjoy it! They are called “brezeln” there and are pretty popular with mustard as a dipping sauce. I have always liked mine with cheese, and personally, I would rather have my mustard only on other food items. It turns out the schnitzel is not rare in Germany, but first, it was picked up in various places from Austria. As for the bratwurst, it is one of my favorite foods cooked on the grill at a cookout. I have always enjoyed mine with mustard and ketchup, and it turns out that Germans usually do the same! I guess we have more in common when it comes to food than I thought.

Eating food like this is a great way to dip your toes in other cultures without spending money on plane tickets and a place to stay once you are there. It is as if Germany came right to you!

Bye, bye, Big Bevo! . -sold- “We are all Immigrants”, 24in x 24in, Encaustic mixed media on cradled wood. . She is one of my very favorites, and I’m so excited she’s found her new home! . **Trying desperately not to panic as I’m madly producing more work for my gallery wall, finishing up my final commissions for the year (until after I’ve got the holidays under control), while virtual second grade is taking up half of my studio and a three year old is wrapped around my ankle; which would be difficult enough working in any medium, but I literally paint with hot wax and fire. And no one ever leaves me alone. Ever. It’s fine, we’re all fine. 😅** #momartist #pandemiclife . . . 🔥🎨😱⚜️😱🎨🔥 . . . #stlartist #stlart #stlouisartist #stlouisart #stlwaxworks #leahmerriman #greendoorartgallery #greendoorartists #webstergroves #soldart #galleryart #stllove #bevomill #dutchtown #southcitystl #sayyestoartstl #stlcreatives #cylcollective #blueskies #placesilove #gratitude #supportlivingartists #collectart #artfromtheheart #encausticpainting #encausticart #waxart #encaustic (at Green Door Art Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGiADj9HYPS/?igshid=eb46z678u0n0

Todays Art Special is the latest oil painting in my Local Scenes series. I've been working on this for the last couple weeks and really like how it turned out! I pass by on my way to get donuts and always thought it would make a good painting!
