bofrost* man!
Just now, as I was trying to catch up on all my wayyy behind blog reading (why do you people write so much? why?) there was a buzz at the door. Because nobody ever comes to our door, Lindsey and I both just sat here for a moment and stared at each other, until I realized that I was the adult and door opening falls to me. So I did my adultly duty and answered the door and guess what! It was the bofrost* man! Yeah, I was confused too, until he handed me a catalog and I realized bofrost* man = schwans guy. But in German. As a bonus, bofrost* man also handed me a catalog of translations which, yay! - are funny enough for me to tell you about!
1. Walnut Ice Cream: Pithy-nutty and creamy-fine. Soft-melting ice-cream with fine marple syrup and crispy walnuts.
(wow, pithy nuts? AND marple syrup? Yum!)
2. Cream Vanilla bourbon Ice-Cream: The fine way of ice pleasure.
(okay, I’m stopping right there. Ice pleasure? although it DOES seem like it might be a bit chilly, it sounds fun…sign me up!)
3. bo*nut: A must for lovers of nut.
(…um…)
4. Chicken-breast-fillets: Fist Class fillets - selected for you. Stays especially fleshy and juicy.
(Hmmm…I’ll stay away from the Fist class fillet, I think.)
5. Meat Balls: They do not only taste in soup.
(well, there you go.)
6. Lye sticks: Bake with variants, whether lye confectionary, your own phantasy creations or classic lye sticks.
(wait, lye? as in…LYE?)
I’m definitely getting #2, mayyyybe #1 - I really think I’d enjoy marple syrup a whole lot.
Tschuss!!
*by the way, the * is a snowflake. not something else.

Hmmm, they do seem to like their nuts and balls. Sorry - I couldn’t resist. ;-). Love the translations. Now, get back to reading your blogs, missy!

Been reading your entries some of them are quite interesting. So your trip to Heidelberg was short and nothing spectacular. Drives like that always get my mind wandering and thinking of everything instead of concentrating on driving, what about you?

I can’t even think of anything funnier than that to say. I think you covered it.

Kari - I’m getting there!
friend - normally on long drives I’m sleeping. This one, however, I was not. Fortunately.
Angel - well, thanks for commenting anyway!

Love the new page look..very “now” and so not B-52ish! Okay..another dig..but I went to that concert with you-know-who oh so long ago…unlike you I do feel old! I think it comes with being separated from main stream society.. Did I actually say that? Well the beach does that to me. The point is your sight looks great!

I think we write so much because we lead boring lives….

toni - Awww Christoph. I should…go visit him?
megan - I am dying to know who “you-know-who” is…but I do understand what you mean about the beach disconnect…and thank you!
scott - You, my friend, live anything but a boring life.
