Shopping around the….soup

Hi (Furry)furriends,

shoppingsoup

It is my furriend Bacon’s

Shopping around the soup…world

time…

shoppingsoup

So that means…

shoppingsoup

that I have to do some shopping

today….

but…

as I am not allowed

to go beyond the garden…

shoppingsoup

we have to check what ingredients we have

in the fridge…

Ready for this mousie?

Let’s go and check it out…

shoppingsoup

We need about 250 g lentils

and 250 g split peas

shoppingsoup

…we only had 150 g of the peas

but that is no problem..

…for us…

…it had to be

green pea soup only

anyway…. 😀

shoppingsoup

…but when you are NOT allowed

to go outside

to do some shopping,

you have to make the best

of what you get…

shoppingsoup

Then you need 2 leeks

2 onions

1 celeriac

1 or 2 vegetable stock…..

!….before we go on:

notice Granny’s first cutting board…

it is almost antique…

just like her….

Allright, you can go on now…

shoppingsoup

…cut it in pieces and add it to the

peas and lentils,

that had already boiled for ages

more than 30 minutes…

shoppingsoup

Now let everything boil

for another 30 minutes…

…stay close to Granny

shoppingsoup

in the meantime…

shoppingsoup

and add

1 smoked saucage in the last 10 minutes…

but don’t do this with

the vegetarian saucages,

because then you will get…

shoppingsoup

this….

shoppingsoup

…MOL…

We added some fried bacon…

…sorry my furriend… 😉

for Grandpaw…

and we had a soup for

less than 5,00 Euro…

shoppingsoup

…and a satisfying

bulge out

afterwoods…

Enjoy your meal!

Bacon’s Show and Tell Helloween

Hi (Furry)furriends,Halloween

I am going to tell you

a true story about

Granny and Helloween

…now….

Halloween

It was the

31st of October 2008

when Granny joined

the Helloween Ceremony…

Halloween

for the first…

…and the last…

time….

Halloween

You have to know

that we don’t celebrate

Helloween in the Netherlands…

Halloween

…allthough it has made

a huge progress nowadays…

…especially where we live now….

Halloween

It was already dark…

when she started to decorate

the house…

Halloween

and she had all kind

of treats in the basket…

Halloween

and little twofeet brother

ordered some more

after eating them all…

P1030863

Granny was very excited

for what would come

that evening…

Halloween3

So she lit the candles

and sat down

and waited for the

children…

Halloween

and then they came….

and Granny stood there…

in the candlelight…

Halloween

and she said

…Trick or Treat…

and laught…

Halloween

…like a witch…

and one child…

looked at her

and made a step forward…

…the hero…

Halloween

but then he got really scared…

and asked her

if she was a real witch…

He never waited for an answer,

but ran away…

Halloween

Now…

judge for yourself…

Halloween

is she?

Thanks to my snort furriend Bacon

for making this Show and Tell

event possible…

We spook over later to see

Halloween

Show and tell

Hi (Furry)furriends,

Today we participate again

in my furriend Bacon’s

Show and tell

to share a funny hilarious moment

in our life…

showandtell

You better take a seat,

while I’m telling you

the story…

showandtell

Granny and Grandpaw

went to Brussels

showandtell

a few years ago…

showandtell

 to do some sightseeing…

showandtell

just for one day…

showandtell

and after a little while…

showandtell

they both got a little hungry

got a sweet tooth

for some coffee

and found this restaurant

where they served pancakes.

showandtell

Granny saw this special pancake named

Gateau au pomme…

lying on the counter.

Their French isn’t what it was

in the Seventies…

but they remembered that

pomme means apple…

and gateau cake…

So they ordered

a kind of

this delicious cake.

showandtell

The waitress served the coffee…

showandtell

and then they waited…

showandtell

…and waited…

and finally after half an hour…

Voila: le gateau pomme â été servi…

Apfelstrudel

They both took a bite of it

at the same time…

looked at each other

with the bite still in their mouth,

not daring to move anything…

and started to laugh…

and laugh…

they just couldn’t stop….

showandtell

The pancake was filled with

extremely hot applesauce…

that’s why it took so long….

and they almost burned their mouth

on it….

at the same time….

but neither Grandpaw nor Granny

spit it out,

because you don’t do that…

showandtell

well….I would…. 😉

Bacon’s Show and tell

showandtell

Good Morning (Furry)furriends,

It’s another episode

of my furriend

Bacon's show and tell

and I was trying…

showandtell

to find myself…

showandtell

something

for the occasion…

showandtell

but couldn’t find

anything that I didn’t like…

…yet…

showandtell

and I asked Granny

if she had a story to tell…

And this is what she told me…

thans to Volha Kavalenkava 123rf.com

When she was a teenager

back in 1972…

Volha Kavalenkava 123rf.com Thanks!

the mini skirts

had to make place…

kokerrok midi

for tube skirts..

because that was hot…

…at once…

and everybody

was wearing

plateau soles

like this…

plateauzool

So Granny asked her mom

for such kind of shoes too….

so she could wear them

with her new tube skirt…

showandtell

OMC…

you better close your eyes now….

vintage schoenen1

’cause this is what she has gotten…

colourful blue-yellow

low heels with plateau soles…

absolutely the most ugliest shoes

she has ever had in her entire life…

Can you imagine

how they looked like

with the tube skirt…

showandtell

Better not imagine that…MOL 😀

She absolutely hated them,

but she had to wear them,

because she was still in highschool

and didn’t had her own earnings yet,

but when she had her own

holiday-tasks

she bought herself

the black shoes

and threw

the blue-suede-shoes

away…

Have a great weekend my furriends ❤

– P A W K I S S E S –

We’re trying to be around as much as we can,

but Granny has a terrible migrane

since a couple of days,

so we do visit only occasional

at the moment.

❤ ❤ ❤

Bacon’s Show and Tell

Hi (Furry)furriends,

ShowandTell

My furriend Bacon

asks us what we have in the house

that is older than Granny….

or Grandpa…

ShowandTell

So while I’m taking

some sun…

Granny we found something

that is very old….

ShowandTell

This old box…

handmade

and propably made of teak tree…

ShowandTell

has been made somewhere at 1930..

or a little later…

Look at the drapery…

isn’t it beautiful….

Granny’s Grandma gave it to her

a very long time ago…

she doesn’t remember exactly

how long,

but she knows she’s saving

her witchcraft cards in it since 1983….

ShowandTell

Granny’s Grandma has got the box

from her mother-in-law

and they used it as a sewing-box…

as far as we can remember…. 😀

ShowandTell

So that means

that the box is about 85 years….

almost antique…

not that it does not show..MOL 😀

Wishing you a

Happy Weekend

while I continue my sunny sleep.
