Three damsels of Alsace
There you go, three typical dresses from my district, and three lovely ladies to go along with it! The tri-coloured cockade pinned on the Alsatian black bow was - and still is - a strong patriotic meaning for the Alsatians.
Dresses can tell a lot about her owner, such as her religion and her current marital statute. Bothan could be a protestantism, since we can see the under-dress for a couple of centimeters, called 'Rock'. Marischen wears a protestantism green dress. Liesel wears the red catholic dress 'Kutt', even if the green apron points that she doesn't care much about it.
Bothan holds a pretzel, recipe originated from Alsace, while Liesel stands with a blonde beer and a choucroute garnie. At first I wanted to add a glass of wine hold by Marischen, such as a Gewurztraminer, but a beer is enough alcohol for the whole drawin =D

Maintenant j'ai envie d'une bonne choucroute, et une vraie, pas les trucs insipides en boites qu'on trouve par chez moi. Dis, je peux venir chez toi pour quelques jours et qu'on aille manger une vraie choucroute dans un vraie resto alsacien? Steuplait? :p
Sinon très beau dessin avec ta renarde avec cet énorme bretzel
Pardonnez ma grammaire. Je ne connais pas le français, ainsi j'utilise des dictionnaires et des traducteurs d'Internet. Peut-être j'apprendrai quelque chose dans le processus.
