i went through all of my photos and resized them 

>.<

i always feel smart when i fix a problem

lol, it was a stupid problem!

so these photos are from the first 2 weeks or so of april... 

we were at the mall one day and found this beast,

we thought it looked like a giant hot cross bun so we bought it with fingers crossed

€3,50 >> wasn't a bad price either 

YAAAAY!

hot hot hot cross bun slice!

i'm pretty sure we scoffed the lot in a weekend

no regrets

no shame

pasta pesto, chicken and bacon

the pasta is wild garlic

japanese curry

sounds bizarre i know, but it's tasty as

so cuuuute!

he was just hanging out of the window for ages

on our way back down the street he'd jumped out and took himself for a walk

dogs in berlin are amazing,

they're so obedient and utterly adore their owners,

they don't even look at other people!

*sobs*

haha

pretend it's a scene from the walking dead

walkers ahead beware!!

mmm, nothing scary about this.

a kiwi scoop and a cherry

the most popular building on our street.

i can see this from our front window and the amount of people that stop to take a picture...

i should charge

you know,

for art.

HAAA

i got a new half circle cake tin and wanted to use it

there was too much batter though so the cake turned out round

oooops

tasted good though

we've been spending our late afternoons in mauerpark

beer and people watching in the sun before tea.

this place gets crazy busy.

mmm HOT DOGS

i always regret putting mustard and ketchup on them

i like plain food lol

chicken burgers and coleslaw

GET IN MY BELLY.

Day tripping || Potsdam

This awesome toilet was decorated with pages from manga comics. 

I stayed in there for an age...

way too long.

Heading into my favourite area of Potsdam, 

the Dutch quarter.

Dammit Marie, they're MINERALS!

When we get visitors we tend to go out and explore a lot more than usual. 

This year we ended up travelling just outside Berlin,

to a little place called Potsdam. 

It's seeped in history, to quote my dad,

"it got the shit bombed out of it during the war".

Eloquent as always. 

Which war he is talking about, i'm not sure.

It took about 50 minutes to get there on a train.

We had lovely weather and every intention to get the water taxi around the city,

BUT,

someone was too cold and needed to buy a jumper,

so we missed to first taxi, 

then spent the rest of the day chasing another one.

[my feet!]

My favourite area was the old Amsterdam quarter.

The houses were beautiful,

i've still not been to Amsterdam, but i want to go even more now!

I would have loved to sit outside a cafe and had a cherry beer,

watch the afternoon slowly go by.

There is even a Brandenburg gate here, 

which was bizarre!

One of the main places it is recommended to visit here is 

Sansoucci Park.

It was beautiful,

but that's another story for another day!

My Roaring 20's

Welcome, welcome,

one and all!

Today i'm going to treat you to a few snapshots of some of my 

favourite places around my house.

Yes the turtle next to my bed is a night light.

Yes i sleep with teddies still.

Yes i use an old man's shopping trolley to actually put my shopping in.

[how else am i to get 8 litre bottles of water home?!]

Yes i have lace curtains,

and i LOVE them,

Yes there are dinosaurs dotted around.

Yes....

that is indeed a whole shelf of hot sauces.

And finally,

yes, i have a milk jug in the shape of a cow.

Haters gon' hate!
