To se kod nas skoro nedjeljno kuhalo. Najviše sa pilečim vratovima i nogama.

Može!! Moramo jednom za vikend ili kad bude Christmas break, onda sam uzela tri tjedna odmora pa bude vremena. Crash course focaccia sa Markom i crash course o životu sa Mićom i Stemmy.

Ja bi molim taj recept. Več sam probala par ali mi nikad neispadne tako kak treba.

Dali je to kao neki seafood chowder ili što kod nas zovemo ‘kisela juha’, kao pileča juha sa povrčem i na kraju se metne kiselo vrhnje?

I often make tofu schnitzels, but you need to freeze the firm tofu first, thaw it, and then use it. It’s great torn and then crumbed or battered to fry like chicken, or like a schnitzel, or as strips. Freezing and thawing gives it a great, chewy texture.

I wish I could have a glimpse into when they are found, but I will just imagine it. Hopefully there will be lots of smiles!

Today was the day! This morning the stones I've been painting went out into the world! (See post 1) Raymond and I took them down the street to where our community of people who are refugees live in container homes, and I randomly placed them for kids to find! 3 of 3.
Painted stone placed on a slippery dip slide at the children's playground. Waiting to be found. Painted stone placed on one of the metal steps leading to the first floor of the container homes community. Waiting for someone to find it. Painted stone placed on a step of a little children's step scooter parked outside of a container home. Waiting to be found. Painted stone placed on an outdoor table outside of a container home community, waiting to be found.

A selection of painted pebble stones on a white rectangular plate on a wooden table outside. Photographed from above to show the motive on each of the stones. Flowers, a mushroom, dinosaur, ladybug, strawberry, caterpillar, grasshopper, funny faced goofy monsters with spots. All bright colours and cheerful. Painted stoned placed on the corner of a flower planter for someone to find. Painted stone placed on a sea-saw at a children's playground. Waiting for someone to find it.

To mi je ispred ogledala gdje imam koju kremu, hair brush, i par takvih stvari. On to negdje vidio za €10 pa mi kupio. Bilo je prije u prozoru neke trgovine i gadna boja, pa mi je prefarbo.

You have reminded me that I am down to my last jar of home-made sambal, and it will be time again soon to find some well-priced chilies for another batch.

Raymond demonstrating why women live longer than men while hanging some art on our wall today. The larger carving was bought here locally. The traditional African couple Raymond brought back with him from Zimbabwe.
Raymond at the top of our first floor stairs which go around a bend. He has one foot on the landing, and one foot on the hand rest while hammering a nail into the wall. Raymond at the top of our stairs hanging a large wooden carving on the wall. The carving is of an elongated head from what appears to be Indonesia. Wooden carving on our wall. The carving is of an elongated head, It's about 1 metra long and 30 centimetres wide. The head is decorated with patterns and appears to be wearing a hat. It's possibly of Indonesian origin. Two wooden carvings on our wall. The left is hanging a little higher than the right. The left is a female, the right is a male. The heads are very long, almost in the shape of a cricket bat. They are traditional carvings from Zimbabwe.

We bought fresh 'blitva' (chard) at the farm this morning and I turned it into a sort of burek pita for lunch.
Cut piece of the burek pita on a plate. The inside visible as a cross section so you can see the chard and bits of white cheese. The burek pita in a metal tray from the oven. Some pieces have already been taken out. The burek pita out of the oven in a round metal tray on a cooling rack.

Meanwhile in our craft room, Raymond is painting my bedroom vanity table white for me! It just needs another coat or two.

Apple pie date at one of our favourite places: Windmill De Breek. Rescue dog Noodle loves it too because she is allowed inside at the café.
Raymond sitting at a wooden table in front of an old-fashined window. It's an old café, traditional. There are two coffee cups and two plates on the table with apple pie. He is eating his pie. Plate with a piece of apple pie and whipped cream on a wooden table. In the blurred background you can see Raymond, or a part of him, his arms and hands as he is taking a piece of the apple pie with his fork. Raymond and rescue dog Noodle standing on a cobbled path in front of an old historic Dutch windmill. Green grass either side. The weather is a bit overcast.
