wiseheartOne more day at school, and then I'll have five days in a row, in which I won't have to see anything and anyone work-related. Yay!
I've already baked litle bunny-shaped biscuits - yum! - that are supposed to last at least a week. Tomorrow, I'm going to prepare the Easter ham (with lots of garlic and cumin), and boil and colour the Easter eggs, as we're going to Vienna on Friday.
I really hope that I'll find the boxed edition of SGA's fifth season in Vienna. The series has finally run its circle on German TV, so they ought to have brought out the DVDs as well. I don't care what the price will be; I actually preferred Season 5 to Season 4, despite the fact that I love Carter and hate Woolsey. IMO, Season 5 had only one completely idiotic episode, and that's a good thing.
I'll never waste a single cent on SGU, though. Today's episode was extremely irritating again. While this time nobody stalked his or her loved ones in other people's bodies, and there was even a faint hint of actual sci-fi in the episode, for the greatest part, there didn't actually happen anything. More than half of the episode was wasted on people watching their alternate selves moralize on a video recording. I was very happy when Chloe Sue finally died - she should have died in the pilot already - but I'm sure they'll hit the reset button in the next ep, and he'll be back annoying us to death.
Anyway, on Saturday I'm going to bake my Ischler and give Russischen Zupfkuchen a try. Perhaps I'll bake a little lamb of almond dough, too, but I'm not entirely sure about that part. And then, I'll do the lazy act. Writing, reading, watching TV for 3 entire days - it'll be heaven!

I haven't gotten to do anything Easterly yet, still feeling weak from the flu. Apartment still looks like a mix between "bomb exploded" and chaotic office *sigh* But mom won't work at home during the Easter days, so we'll tidy up a bit for the days and things should get a bit nicer then. Didn't even get around to painting eggs yet (meant to do it on Saturday, but the supermarket eggs tasted so bad, I didn't bother, so I got white eggs from the farmer's market yesterday.)
We're going to have Sauerbraten for Easter.
Have fun in Vienna! *huggles*

Date: 2010-04-01 06:48 pm (UTC)I've cooked the ham and coloured the eggs tonight, so I'm well ahead with the Easterly things. Too bad we can't get white eggs here, although the supermarket eggs are really good. But brown shells just don't absorb colour like white ones do.
We also washed the rag rugs from the kitchen and will probably clean the balcony on Saturday, so that we can finally send the frigging plotted pants into exile for summertime. Dratted Yucca palms are so big they fill half our living room. Of course, we have a rather small living room, but still.
Do you want the recipe for the bunny biscuits. They're really very easy to make.

If it's not too much trouble, recipe for bunny biscuits would be amazing!
