A Rejected Proposal, A Tolerated Existence

Friday Feb 17th –




We hadn’t seen Mikes friend Durk since way back at the start of our ‘living in the cottage’ days, so a visit was arranged and he was coming for a breakfast made by Mike that morning.

I asked if I should make something and Mike answered that no, Durk had asked that Mike make the same breakfast he had the last time we hung out 😏
Guess my services are no longer required 😏

Sugar bread French toast was fried up, banana sliced, whipped cream, brown sugar and butter put out and plates happily filled once Durk arrived.

He stayed and visited for a while before continuing on his way and though the visit was short, he and Mike managed to get a lot out 😜

I’d had a bad sleep, so after some writing I went to lay down and the lay down turned into only waking up at 4:30 πŸ˜‹

Mike had some things to check out for the grandparents, so he’d went out to do that and was gone when I awoke.
Which wasn’t a bad thing… every couple needs a little space when the husband is high energy and not currently working 😏😜

Mike made us some salami toasts for supper and then proceeded to beg me to go for a walk.
In the dark.
For no reason πŸ™„ Continue reading “A Rejected Proposal, A Tolerated Existence”

Experiencing My Previously Experienced Experiences

Wednesday Feb 1st –

Doesburg day β›ͺ️🏘

After a quick breakfast of apples with a yogurt fruit dip ( thanks epicure – Epicure Summer Berry Dip  ) it was time for us to show Zoe the town Mike grew up in.

And also to make sure loempias got tested😜

The sun was shining so it was a nice day to do some town touring, which Zoe and I did while Mike took care of some car stuff since he would be taking the Audi back to the dealership… it was going to be a tough day for him πŸ˜πŸ˜‹

Zoe and I walked around town and it is such a nice thing to be able to express things to someone who sees the same oddities/differences that I do πŸ˜‹

After we had browsed throughout town, Mike was finally able to join us to eatπŸ‘ŒπŸ»

It’s also just as nice to be able to share the things I’ve found to enjoy with a friend from home, like loempias 😎
