Going out (for a change)

Not that I'd gotten far. But I did the grocery shopping in the morning and went to choir practice in the late afternoon. So, there was action, even though choir practice wasn't very satisfying today. And the weather was really nice: crisp, sunny, just the way I like it.

The TEDI Teddy and the TEDI Kitten have left for their new homes. I hope they'll be appreciated. I brought home some free apples from school, so there'll be Apfelküchle tomorrow. Tomorrow is Ash Wednesday anyway, which means a feast day - no meat and a limited amount of futtering. We're beyond the age when it would be mandatory, but Mum insist; and I don't mind. Apfelküchle are yummy.

But seriously, how is it possible that Lent already starts tomorrow? I'm glad I bought some Krapfen today (one for each); that's Faschingstradition and we hadn't had any during the carnival season before.
