noch mehr wochenende und jetzt müd.
Sunday means sleeping.
Our first complete weekend. No training on Saturday. No competition on Sunday. No travelling visiting of parents. Just time, time, time.
Got up at 8 (which is late) and was tired because we had got to bed at 11ish. Silvio had come just a few minutes after me but I didn't realize it any more.
A whole morning full of nothing.
I was a bit disappointed: I had planned to finish sewing my trousers, but the only room with a table large enough for sewing is not heated yet. brrrrrrrrrr.
So: nothing. cooking. some more noodles. lovely, but not as great as the shrimps-pesto.
recipe:
boil noodles
sauce:
slice mushrooms (~300g)
cut some "dried tomatoes in oil" into small pieces
fry together in some of the tomato-oil
ad salt, garlic and maybe water, cream and/or flour
and then? No Frankfurt book fair. It was much too late for that. (and therefore no photography of some more of Frankfurt's skyline, although the weather was great)
But I still wanted to use my camera and so Silvio decided on a "little" tour through the surroundings. "just down to the Rhine and to the quarry afterwards".
We walked for nearly 4 hours. Partly alongside the river, on the main road (brrrr :-/ but it was only a few hundred metres), on some small roads in the forest and a nice direttissima route: up, up, up through the forest.
Unfortunately it was a bit late for such a walk: The sun had already moved to the other side of the valley and so I didn't have the chance to take a lot of pictures. But we collected quite a lot of chestnuts :-)))))))))) I had never seen them before. Just known them as roasted "Maroni", which you can get in winter.
hmmm. *excited* Looking forward to eating them :-)))))
We also found some mushrooms but didn't take them: There are still many in the fridge.
In the evening we watched "the last samurai".
I hate German TV.
tons and tons of advertisements.
A movie which normally lasts 150 minutes and would therefore be over at 22:30 is not over at 23:00. No.....
Couldn't watch it until the end. So I went to bed, but couldn't sleep either.
Funny. I live here for 3 months now and cannot sleep any more if there's no Silvio next to me. :-( Took my blanket out onto the couch and napped next to him until the movie was over.......
I loved the sword-fighting-techniques. Reminded me of Iai Do :-) Uaaaah. I miss my Boken ;-)
On Thursday and Friday I'll be at a "workshop" (small conference) and irks: my green trousers don't have a zipper yet. And the sewing room is ice-cold. hm. Sewed in half of the zipper by hand during the movie. Didn't see much of the pictures, but still loved it.......
Today: tired. Too little sleep. Will go home early and fetch Aline at 5 to go swimming together.
I'm looking forward to that although I'm so terribly tired that I could just fall asleep any moment.
I think I'll have coke for lunch :-)
At the moment I'm drinking tea: Genmaicha. The way, blue_oceansong taught me to. Hmmmm. :-)
Happiness is a cup of tea.
