Rainy Sunday
Sep. 14th, 2025 08:37 pmFortunately, with only mild rain that stayed outside (so far). Schlafwetter, as the Germans would say. Only that I didn't have time to sleep all day (as much as I'd have liked to). Cleaning was on the menu - I did the kitchen, the bath, the loo and the anteroom. Those are the easy parts, without much furniture moving. I'm dreading the living room and the balcony already - those are the real nightmare.
Other than that, I took it easy. No crafting; I've planned to draw the cat faces on the toilet rolls that would serve as surprise boxes, but it was so dark all day I couldn't do it in front of the telly; and having the lamps on when watching telly is unpleasant. They'll keep.
Cooking was easy. I just made a salad and boiled the Semmelknödel that came ready-made in cooking bags. And heated up the leftover pulled pork. It was all very yummy together. In the afternoon, I finally came to solving a few crossword puzzles, even wrote about two measly lines of dialogue for Crossroads II, and then took a nap.
In the early evening my Erna called; then we watched Season 12 of the GBBO. It was bread week, which is my favourite; that and cookie week. Which reminds me: I really need to bake something yummy in the not too distant future, now that the jam-making is nearly done.
