The first meal that we’ve cooked on our new kitchen – beef bourguignon with new potatoes and beans, yummy!

Amazing view from the top!

#SoCS June 9/18 – “start with a noun”

Holiday! Hello everyone, just got back from last week’s holiday in Italy. We took the bus from Munich to Limone, Italy and stayed for 6 days, came back last night. It was wonderful! It rained the first day, otherwise, it was warm, around 28 to 32 degrees every day. Lake Garda is simply amazing! We took a boat from Limone to Malcesine and enjoyed walking around the town. We also walked to the lemon grove and other churches. Lots of restaurants, shops, pizzeria, etc. The food was brilliant – fish, sea food, pasta, pizza, ice-cream, coffee, white wine, etc. Here are some photos. Have a great weekend everyone!

Waldwirthschaft and its jazz band

Hello everyone! It’s Corpus Christi Day so it’s a holiday here in Germany. We cycled to Waldwirthschaft, took us 50 minutes from our house. We passed by some posh neighbourhoods and the Perlach Forest.

We crossed the bridge over the river Isar.

Reaching Waldwirthschaft, bought our drinks and settled down.

Took some photos of surrounding trees.

And the band was playing! How cool was that?

Have a great day, everyone!

A lot of things to be thankful

Hello everyone! Hope you’re all fine. We are in the middle of a great renovation so our house is a total mess at the moment. After 20 years, when everything in the kitchen seem to be falling apart, we’ve decided to have a new one. It’s when we cannot open and close the door of refrigerator without fear that it will fall on us, or that the exhaust vent produce this alarming noise and not sucking the air out and the work surface has burnt places and scratches. Time for a new one!

That’s the first thank you – thank you for the 20 years’ service of the old kitchen. We’ve spent a lot of times cooking, preparing, listening to radio, talking, arguing, baking, etc. When HRH the son was small, he loved helping me bake some brownies.

Talking of HRH the son, and his beautiful K, they celebrated their second wedding anniversary yesterday – congratulations and best wishes! They will be here to visit us next month so we are looking forward to seeing them again.

Thank you for giving us nice spring weather, our flowers are blooming and the tortoises are happy eating their lettuce and dandelions.

Because we still don’t have a new kitchen, we have been cooking with just one burner camping cooker and an electric kettle so we’ve been testing our creativity as well as our patience to produce some meals. Thanks for testing us.

Sometimes, we go out for a meal, too and here are some of the food we’ve had.

Thank you for the holidays, glad we’ve got two weeks’ off because of Pentecost and spring break, we have time to sort out the mess, or to be in this mess while things are being done in the kitchen.

Thanks for the cycling trips we have been doing.

Have a lovely week everyone!

The moon, apple blossom and our garden

Hello everyone! Hope you’re all fine. I don’t know when I took these photos of the moon one evening, but I’d like to share them with you.

“I’ll be with you in apple blossom time”

Sunday at the beer garden

Hello everyone! Lovely day here and we’ve been out cycling to the beer garden. The sun’s shining, people walking and children running. Two fountains on the lake with all the ducks, geese, swans and fish. Such a cool place to have our lunch.
