New home


When it is sunny I have a superb view out of the diningroom window



I even love when rain invents a beading pattern on my newly cleaned windows

Surprising visitors - Feuersalamander - (Salamandra salamandra) 
I took „him“ with gloved hands
and offered him a nice grassy place - a friend told me that he can
induce allergy -








DH handled this visitor - a harmless one - I wouldn‘t know of poisonous
snakes in our country.

And now let me sit and knit after all this moving chaos
No big project - a project of fantasy - using up left-overs of cotton yarns
so many lovely colours
Knitting without plan - short rows - purl - knit - change colours at random
and produce a happy wash cloth -

I am sitting in the middle of Schwarzwald - Black Forest - on our
balcony - it is like very exclusive holidays - and we are at home here.
I think we are lucky people.




This is growing around the house - and if I can believe my patchwork friends
and I believe them !
it is called Giersch and can be processed into various dishes - tarts, soups,
smoothies...
Gewöhnlicher Giersch (Aegopodium podagraria)


I can gather lots of it. Years ago I weeded it in our garden and succeeded ! 
Today I know better and regret this ignorant rampage - 
I am going to read recipes.



Nice arrangements - seen on our evening walk.



Bye-bye till next time.
