Autumn Barbecue


It’s fall and already quite cold here in Northern Germany. Anyway, we got the idea to make barbecue in our garden. It’s very nice if it’s cold but if you can warm up near the fire. Sadly I didn’t take photos of the food. We made buns and ate them with sausages and mustard. But I showed sausage buns already a couple of times on my blog, I guess. A fast search brought this article up for example. It’s true, we eat sausage very often and it is tasty! Continue reading Autumn Barbecue

Cat In The Box


As I mentioned already, my cat Shyna loves cardboard boxes, however, I don’t think that there is any cat that doesn’t. I shot the snapshot above the day when I uploaded the photo of the other post that I linked here. The photo above was very overexposed with too much highlights and it was hard to fix it so that I decided to make it a little bit black and white, because this is one way to hide the problem. But that didn’t work out well too. That means, I still don’t like the image quality but I like the … Continue reading Cat In The Box

Beautiful Water Drop On A Leaf


My mother shot the image above and I do think that this is a very beautiful scene. I love water drops and they look so great if they are on a leaf. I love how the reflection and transparency of water interacts with a green leaf. I told my mother that this is a stunning image. She shot it with her phone and it still looks so good. What do you think? Here is another image of the same scene… Continue reading Beautiful Water Drop On A Leaf

Cat at work…


I had a big purchase some weeks ago and the products were delivered in a big cardboard box. Whenever there is a cardboard box, it won’t take much time and Shyna will be on the scene. But I think all cats like cardboard boxes. I formed a habit to leave new cardboard boxes to my cat for a while because it serves some purposes at once,… she can scratch on it, she can relax in it, she can play with it, she can hide in it and so on. I think they really love it. Not sure if I ever … Continue reading Cat at work…

It’s That Time Again, Chocolate Gingerbread!


It’s fall, and that is the time when they start to sell chocolate gingerbread again in German stores. Did I ever mention that I love chocolate gingerbread? After so much years blogging I am not sure if I did but I wouldn’t be surprised if I mentioned it anywhere on my blog. I am not really a big fan of sweets, in fact I would rather make me a salad than clutching at sweets, however, that really can change in the fall season. Gingerbread glazed with chocolate is one of the reasons! Continue reading It’s That Time Again, Chocolate Gingerbread!

My Birthday Cakes 2014


Yesterday was my birthday and I became 33 years old. How time flies! I wouldn’t say that I am now in a midlife crisis but it definitely makes me thoughtful anyway. However, the better thinking is that we should be happy about each year of our life. I celebrated this with my family yesterday and I should go on with a tradition of my blog, I should post my birthday cakes as I did it last year too. This year we had less cakes on the table as we did celebrate in a smaller circle as some family members were … Continue reading My Birthday Cakes 2014
