Musing About This And That – Part 2

Dennis

Today I visited grandma and grandpa and we enjoyed “Kaffee und Kuchen” as we say in Germany, and that means enjoying coffee and cake. But it’s not to be taken literally, because I don’t like coffee and I always drink something else. I ate a “Bienenstich”, that’s a bee sting cake and very delicious. I believe “Kaffe und Kuchen” time is very similar to the british tea time, it’s more about coming together to chat. We talked about our family history today, and grandpa told me that one of his nephew lives in Peru since a long time already because … Continue reading Musing About This And That – Part 2

The emergency service had to decide if they bring her to the nearest hospital or to our city hospital that was more far away.

More Flowers For The Blog

Dennis

It´s that time, flowers everywhere, also on my blog. I found the flowers above on grandma´s campground weeks ago and liked them so that I had to take a photo. I think purple really fits together with white. Both flower colours work well together in this arrangement. Grandma has several beautiful plants places on her place. Yet again, I am not really sure how the flower is called. I should have asked grandma so that I learn. Continue reading More Flowers For The Blog

Here are the two tasty tarts we had on the table, stracciatella and banana split tart… But not only that we all had a lot of fun because … Continue reading Grandma´s Birthday Tarts and the new Earth Resident
