What cheered you up today?

and now chatting with friends here with a cup of Kaffe : Jacobs Krönung and a piece of toast with apricot jam

Having dinner with my wife tonight at a traditional German guest house. Hmmm the beer and the food was really good.

 

[Erich]

excellent Chris ! boy do I miss the German food, have to travel 250 miles to my north for the faire, though when the mrs has time we party hardy with kartofel salat, brot, German bier, wurst mixed in with the potatoes. Her rolladen is pretty darn tasty as well as her sauerbraten

ok I'm hungry where the wurst

At this dollar store my wife bought a bunch of these children's books. They were put together by some guy that worked for the BBC. Each included a CD of nursery rhyme sung by Britons. My kid loves them, and hearing nursery rhymes with the accent makes me laugh too

 

[DerAdlerIstGelandet]

Hmmm the good German food that my mother in law made. We had Wild Boar with Knoedel and Rotkraut. Man it was great! Made up for having to deal with the inlaws for a weekend.

 

[mkloby]

We got Matty a baby einstein dvd with little von beethoven symphony skits on it with hand puppets and other little baby skits. Apparently it's his favorite thing in the world

 

[Matt308]

That's funny, mkloby.

Off the P's today for an Easter dinner, a few beers, and a sated belly.

My son turns 23 today and coincidentally has his tie cutting ceremony
at Pensacola. I remain amazed I raised a kid without doing too much harm!!!

My 7 year old broke his soccer juggling record. He can now do 17 in a row!

I hope he had a good story. If not, I hope he got a good fine.

The weather turning into perfect Biergarten weather. Going to a nice Beirgarten tonight with my wife and a few friends for some light food and a beer or two and sit in the warm evening weather.
