Fine Food (f)versus Frustration
Nov 7, 2005 ~ filed under: Delicious & English & Visuelles ~ 3 comments »Long time no food blog…was my thought and excuse to make a short break of my work 
I am frustrated because I want to do several things at once but the day has only 24 hours 
My thesis paper is moving forward but it is hard to circumscribe it to the main topic, there are often so many interesting other ideas or points and I try to include it somehow
Sigh…yeah…must finish this soon so no more external rides…I must follow a red line…easy to say…hmm.
Ok, I don’t want to bore you with my frustration but I just want to say hello, I’m still alive. More or less.
A few days ago (or even over a week ago) I made my third apple cake…no I think it was an apple pie…grrr I can never decide which is which (or what is what?)…see the photo and decide by yourself:
Because I didn’t have time for visitors at the moment the only eaters of this very delicious apple pie (I think it is more a pie than a cake) were my dad and I 
This one is almost better or same good as the last one (when Anja-II visited me). Hard to decide…my dad likes the second the most.
Now almost all apples from this year are gone.
My dad brought more than 200kg of our apples to a company where they make apple juice out of it. So we got plenty of juice (bottles) now Very good juice by the way…it is not the juice of your own apples but of everybodys or every farmers apples. We could decide if we want to have the natural juice or the clear one or even other juice mixes…with cherry or mango for instance. I like the natural apple juice the most =) Together half and half with mineral water we call it “Apfelschorle”…apple spritzer?
Yes and then I had the first “Gruenkohl” last Saturday. Gruenkohl is a very famous traditional kind of green cabbage (I think only available in Germany). I forgot my camera so I can only show you a picture how the cabbage looks like. The pic is from the internet:
D-E-L-E-T-E-D I will show a real photo of what a meal looks like…next time when we’ll eat it.
The northern Germans who live here in the federal state called “Schleswig-Holstein” eat “Gruenkohl” different as others in Germany. We sprinkle sugar on it yeah, sounds strange – sugar on cabbage…I know…but it tastes so much better and it is typical for this region here. Don’t ask me why.
Together with “Gruenkohl” we eat small potatoes, pork cheek, smoked pork loin and a smoked fatty pork sausage called “Pinkel” (“pinkeln” means to pee, but that has nothing to do with the sausage…lol). Yes, it sounds like lots of meat, huh?
But the most what you have on your plate is the “Gruenkohl”, the green cabbage.
More photos of my favourite winter meal will follow soon….
Sorry that I started to talk only about food again but I cannot post about something else at the moment. Nothing remarkable happend.
I’m fine, just a little bit stressed out because of not enough sleep. Skin problems as usual but not too bad. Too much chocolate as usual…bad. Maybe a reason for my skin problems *g*
Four weeks and a bit left before my plane starts towards ME – yeah!
Must go back to work, it is already 7.30….
