Hahaha, is this a bad time to tell you I was a German major? :) Never made it out to Hesse, though. And every time I think the name Hesse, I think of boots. This is a sign that I've read waaaaaay too many regency romances. And yeah, I had the Handkaese in Munich, I think. At least, I'm pretty sure I did, it might have been in a tiny town south of Munich, where we stayed.
Steampunk seems like it might be a lot of fun if you put work into it and really imagine the world, but a lot of authors slap gears on things and call their work done, so I'm wary of it in general. There was a feature-length Avengers steampunk fic awhile back, but it lost me at a few parts, unfortunately.
Hehehe, if you ever want a pocketwatch, I can cut you a deal. Here's a picture of my favorite from my grandfather's collection. It's 1920s Swiss, and it still winds.
