Paula has encouraged me to post something about my more-than-mediocre cooking abilities. I have denied her requests because I do not want to be too self-indulgent. But today Ambrož (Mojca helped in the beginning but soon lost interest – hm, a modern woman 😉 ) and I cooked something together that really came out as a […]

German weather forecasting needs help. Today it is supposed to be sunny or at least sunnier and warmer. We had 3 degrees in the morning and currently 10 degrees and are still awaiting the sun that was promised. When I realized in the morning that the forecast is not going to come true (maybe I […]

The weather left us no other choice. We geared up and went for it. Aaaaand, we were back in one hour, most of which the kids were safely tucked under a waterproof cover of the stroller and daddy was out in the rain pushing the stroller. Even the fish in the water didn`t lure the […]

Today I am tired. Not because of the rain, although it has been raining the entire day. And not because of the kids, they were perfect today (they always are it is I who has faults and bad days). I am beat because I have been working, trying to earn some money (all you German […]

Weather, why are you bothering me! I never truly understood how weather can influence my being. But it does and I hate it for it. Today it is cloudy and rainy and I feel I could sleep an entire day, even though I have already drank two coffees and an energy drink. I need a […]

“And on the seventh day god rested.” But daddy has to do all kinds of things on a Sunday. You guessed it – it was a busy Sunday. We were at the natural history museum in Bayreuth in the morning, and we went to Kulmbach in the afternoon. I made so many pictures, which tell […]

Paula arranged to have a picnic with Angela, the nice lady that helped us with the moving to Bayreuth and is still helping us with different information about Bayreuth and Germany – the latest information she gave us is that the Kreuzsteinbad (swimming pool) is open, but I mustn’t tell the kids cause they would […]

We often go shopping in St. Georgen –  an industrial zone on the outskirts of Bayreuth. Once we were driving the same way we have done for tens of times before, when I glimpsed something that looked like a man in the air. Because I had to mindful of the road I couldn`t take a […]

Grrrrrrrr G.R.R.Martin is awaiting me on the couch, all ready and willing (his book, not the man himself. I think he is too big to fit on our couch anyway), so picture-post-day it is. We tried to find and catch some frogs today at Erememitage. We did see them, but all we caught was this […]

Today Mojca woke up with a swollen left eye. I didn`t notice it well into the second hour after she woke. A swollen eye usually means we stay at home. But this time I think it is a reaction to a – wait for it – mosquito bite. Yes, you read that right; there are […]
