Just in case anyone thought there was an ounce of maturity left inside my body.. I’m here to rebuke that myth.. I have stumbled upon two more frighteningly funny objects in the local grocery markt..
I submit for your viewing displeasure: Exhibit A - Turkish Pide (or that’s what they call it) […]

A young, idealistic me with my mother some thirty years ago… taken outside our flat in Heidelberg. I remember being in awe of the castle there. Also playing in the witches tower & running through the apple orchards. They were, for the most part, extremely happy years.

And now, a boring post about the weather…
It’s almost June and I’m sleeping with the windows open! Yay! Hell, I’m actually a little cold when the alarm goes off in the morning. Now I realize this can’t possible last (please, oh pleeeeze, let it last), but for now I’m reveling in the […]

For the most part today we stayed in, but we did take a father’s day foray to the bistro around the corner. We collected our sandwiches & decided to eat at an outside table and soak up the strangeness.
It was truly bizarre… we live about three blocks from the elbe with its beautiful hike […]

I’ve spent the lion’s share of my day curled up in bed, in a t-shirt two sizes too big, eating black olives dipped in creamed spinach while reading John Katzenbach’s ‘The Analyst’.
