This has become a regular sight these days. I have no idea why I haven’t started making my own pizza dough earlier, it’s so ridiculously easy. It all started with an innocent, but insanely delicious shaved asparagus pizza. It was so ridiculously easy to make, well except for shaving the asparagus, I facepalmed myself that [...]
The wild being Berlin. Molly visited Berlin, and obviously we had to give her the grand tour of the eastern part of Berlin. There was currywurst, there was good coffee, and there was schnitzel. The Wednesday Chef was in there too every now and then. And boy, they’re both pretty awesome. Molly even approved of [...]
The heat wave in Berlin continues. We’ve been having temperatures around 37-38 degrees Celcius for the last couple of days. As long as we’re not walking around much and steer clear of public transport (usually > 40 degrees on subway and city train) it’s bearable.
We spent most of Sunday out on the balcony, regularly dipping [...]
Just got some freshly developed film back from the lab, and there’s really no reason why I shouldn’t write some more about last weekend, right? I stuffed some Kodak Portra 160NC (expired in 2001, courtesy of Four Corner Store) in my Pentacon Six, because it’s simply a nice camera for a summer weekend like that. [...]
Was so relaxed, incredibly hot, and full of cherries. J and Mari took the train out to her parents’ on Friday, I followed on Saturday and Sunday, taking care of Mr. T in between, poor guy can’t be left alone and needs some feeding.
Anyway, was so nice to just hang out, take some photos, and [...]
The Rough Guide for Berlin lists Potsdam Sanssouci as the number one place to go in Berlin. The irony is that it’s not in Berlin. It’s not far, just outside of Berlin, in Potsdam, but still. I find that pretty hilarious. But the Rough Guide doesn’t lie, Sanssouci, and Potsdam in general, is a nice [...]
So I’m headed for the airport this morning, already well knowing that there’s only a slim chance to get off this continent. What do you know, the picture below pretty much sums up what was already pretty obvious, but being the incredibly positive and hopeful person I am, I still tried. To no avail as [...]
Autumn depression is in full effect. My motivation to do anything is at an all time low. I bought chocolate today, but I’m not sure it’ll help. I hate this kind of autumn. All grey, all rain, it starts getting dark around 4:30 p.m. and it’s just no fun. I just dread leaving the house, [...]
Wait, the diaries on Monday? Yep, for good reason. After Mari go sick the weekend before last weekend, sadly last Thursday it was J’s turn. So I stayed in on Friday, and took care of my girls and the household most of the weekend. So this will be the diary entry for the week, as [...]
I like reliving my youth, because who doesn’t? That youth involved skateboarding. Even in East-Germany I owned a rather funky-looking (by today’s standards anyway) skateboard that was manufactured by a company usually building machines for chocolate production. It had a nice and simple set of things not to do on the downside of the deck, [...]
